    Zenbook Prime (UX21A)

    That was what I thought at first as well, but benchmarks actually place the i7 over the same-model i5 by 12-18% depending on the application. It's not huge, but it's a reasonable increase. It also only actually costs about $100 to go from the i5 to the i7 in the 21a and 31a models - there aren't...

    Zenbook Prime (UX21A)

    Hello there, I will do my best to keep it short. I need you guys' help looking for a thin-and-light ultrabook. === I am thinking 11.6" or no more than 13.3". Highly prefer at least a 3rd gen i7 and 4 gigs of ram. 120gb SSD is fine and a 1920x1080 screen. After some looking around, I...

    Looking for a small/medium laptop

    Does anyone know of a good place to go where you can shop for ASUS products with customization? the Zenbook (UX32VD) has every single option that I am looking for in an amazing form factor, but I can't find a website that has a decent listing of them. It appears to be just a crapshoot...

    Looking for a small/medium laptop

    I found the following upgraded T430s laptop with lenovo for $1200. Near the upper end of my budget, but it has most of the hardware (and even the OS) that I wanted. It's even small, and lightweight. == Intel Core i7-3520M Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) 14.0" 1600 x 900) LED Backlit...

    Looking for a small/medium laptop

    Mostly Autocad as well. I took a look at the Vaio S-series... I'm not seeing a windows 7 option. I'm really not a fan of Windows 8, so those are probably out for me. As you mentioned having yourself, and the person below suggested, I will take a look at the Lenovo setups now.

    Looking for a small/medium laptop

    Hello, thank you for taking the time to look at post! I had an 11.6" laptop that I recently got rid of because I'm looking to upgrade. I've done some shopping so I'm not asking you guys to do it all for me, I just haven't been able to find anything that really fits the bill. This Samsung...

    Need Help Navigating the Notebook Market

    Don't worry, I'm not talking about a modern gaming laptop application like BF3 or anything like that. I'm talking more like: Rome total war... Knights of the old republic... Maybe sims 3 (on lower settings) for the lady... Stuff like that.

    Hello, and thank you for taking the time to read through my post. I will endeavor to be brief! I'm getting bogged down in all of similar offerings of the notebook market. I'm looking for a portable notebook. At first, I thought I wanted a netbook, but my hands just feel too cramped on the...

    Discerning the Difference in P67 Boards

    Thank you for your advice! I started looking into the Z68 boards as well. I see two of them in approximately the same price point as the P67 offerings, so I guess my initial conundrum is essentially the same: Does the ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 do anything in particular to make it worth $30...

    Discerning the Difference in P67 Boards

    Hello there! I'm working on a new PC build, and I've finally decided to make the jump to to Intel camp. The bulldozer was simply underwhelming. Anyway, before I get too far off track: === I'm going to be getting a 2600K I've settled on an ASUS P67 board. I'm trying to figure out...

    More RAM at less speed, or less RAM at more speed?

    Yeah, that Corsair kit is looking really attractive to me. I'd still like to hear a few more opinions though before I pull the trigger.

    More RAM at less speed, or less RAM at more speed?

    I know it's somewhat debated, and I have done some reading on the subject, but I'm struggling to get a precise answer on the whole 1.5v versus 1.65v thing when it comes to SB. === That's a good thought though, I hadn't thought about shooting the gap and overclocking the larger set - silly...

    More RAM at less speed, or less RAM at more speed?

    (@ AQ_OC)Thanks for the prompt reply! Not trying to discount your thoughts as they may well be true - but I just wanted to share my concerns and further the discussion. === While I would agree that quantity would be prime when talking about going from 2GB to 4GB, or even 4GB to 8GB... it...

    More RAM at less speed, or less RAM at more speed?

    Hello! My question is pretty straightforward (With the following motherboard and processor combo) am I better off having: A larger quantity of ram at a lower speed or A smaller quantity of ram at a higher speed ? Prices are the same, timings are similar, the playing field is fairly...
