Trinity laptops are here

[har]

Well Dell inspiron 14r Special edition is coming with GT640M/3rd Gen i5 for 51k Base model .Given the fact the GT640M is based on Kepler and GT630M on Fermi is the 8k difference between the two justified?
I think 3rd Gen i5 + GT640M @ 42k would be a sweet deal

I dont think it will come down so much. @50k I think the 14r special is a fair deal. Remember the gt540 is kepler based and certainly is not a cheap GPU. Its rated the highest in medium category in notebookreview.

Agreed, it will take a while for prices to come down since both 3rd Gen Intel Processors and Nvidia Kepler GPU have launched recently.

One question for Sam. how can u say that this is not thb qight time for laptop buying? do you sefe any new thing coming in laptop?

 

[rish1]

this is what i wrote but later removed. waiting for one from Asus



Don't go by the Trinity reference laptop sent by AMD. Wait for better reviews cause that one was without dedicated graphics. This one have dedicated graphics so battery backup, heat, turbo will be affected.



Drop the Home Basic & bag and one can have this laptop for 27-28k. Gaming laptop for 28k FTW
Seriously, i was not expecting Trinity so soon. Just was checking whats new in Flipkart when i spotted the A8 naming. Turned out its Trinity



Don't forget HD7670M may look like an uber class GPU but is actually same as GT630M i.e. midclass at best. Though the Xfire will match GT640M (i.e. GT550, 555M). But GT630 + 3rd gen i3 will easily beat this laptop but such a combo is hard to find and usually badly overpriced. Also Asus X53TA was offering similar config but with Llano proccy. Was best seller as it was priced at 27k. A8 from Asus at 27-28k is expected.

I see a lot of competition and pricecut. Also 3rd gen Core i5 (without dedicated graphics) is selling for little more offering tremendous value too. Was obvious A8/A10 will be priced below i5.

sam please tell how to drop off windows from this laptop so that it can be had for less than 30k.
spending on windows is waste of money.

i know 1333 x 768 resolution is bad . asus x53ta screen was very bad in reviews . Was it due to this resolution or other factors such as contrast , colours etc.
Compare hp g6 , inspiron 15r , asus x53ta screen quality and give ratings please.

if all things considered equal like price,performance
which one should be preferred
hp or asus ?

just dont frgt to tell how to drop off windows
thanks

New launches are just off the line, wait for the competition to increase. End customer will gain.

sam please tell how to drop off windows from this laptop so that it can be had for less than 30k.

You can't until and unless manufacturer drops it.

spending on windows is waste of money.

Really, why ?

Compare hp g6 , inspiron 15r , asus x53ta screen quality and give ratings please.

Display wise, Vaio > hp ~inspiron > x53ta

just dont frgt to tell how to drop off windows
thanks

Throw your laptop from 10 ft height.

well thanks but if we can get pirated copy for rs 100 in india then why to spend more just to get updates ?

and guys see the review of asus x53ta successor

asus k55d

technologysonline.com/technology-188449-Trinity39s-second-child-A8-ASUS-K55D-this-evaluation.html

asus k55d has 7470m which is way too slow than 7670m . That makes hp a good deal.

and also hp is giving accidental damage care

1 more thing flipkart mentions hdd as sata 7200 rpm
whereas hp official site says 5000 rpm which is correct ? But then hp site mentions it as a8 2.1 ghz which is obviously not true .

and can anyone tell where can i get this at cheapest price i stay in ncr (ghazbd) and what price do you expect it to be available ?

thanks

Can't we move on ? Why not 1080p resolution ?

1987 - VGA (640x480)
1990 - XGA (1024x768)
2012 - WXGA (1366x768)

Shameful. I used a better resolution SXGA (1280x1024) in 2001.

Kudos to Apple/iPad 3 for WQHD (2560x1440). This should kick start resolution boom.

i don't read German
A8 with a mid range GPU launched from HP that also with W7. A year ago, similar config will cost you at least 5-6k more at the least. Also 3rd gen i5 launched at 34k. last time i remember this was the price for 2nd gen i3. So, a lot of changes going on. Also i find it meaningless to couple some slow GPU like GT620 with 3rd gen core processors. HD4000 is almost as fast as GT630 in most games.

i know 1333 x 768 resolution is bad . asus x53ta screen was very bad in reviews . Was it due to this resolution or other factors such as contrast , colours etc.
Compare hp g6 , inspiron 15r , asus x53ta screen quality and give ratings please.

resolution is ok but the viewing angles, contrast were really bad. Only way to fix this was increasing brightness that ate through battery life. Also it is cause of the display controller or at times cause of the panel.

unless reviewed personally, tested or having a hands on how can someone rate an unseen display?

well thanks but if we can get pirated copy for rs 100 in india then why to spend more just to get updates ?

you can get pirated stuff everywhere but piracy is not the solution. making windows is not childs play. Else why will Windows7 cost 5k+ even for the basic version?

and guys see the review of asus x53ta successor

asus k55d

read today morning. Its not a successor. the dGPU is weak.

asus k55d has 7470m which is way too slow than 7670m . That makes hp a good deal.

and also hp is giving accidental damage care

i wonder if we'll see a similar HP config from Asus. X53TA had HD6650M = HD7670M. same clockspeed. nothing changed except name.

1 more thing flipkart mentions hdd as sata 7200 rpm
whereas hp official site says 5000 rpm which is correct ?

it can be 7200rpm as the ram too is of higher speed. Though used mainly to take advantage of the fGPU

@rish

don't say just the updates, updates fix bugs, protect you from viruses and there is also that angle of pirating being illegal and immoral etc.

well, when we all can live on streets, sleep on footpath and urinate/excrete in the open in India, why to spend lakhs in building a house just to live?

he he

great comment bro ..

but when you are tight on cash you prefer living on streets than building a house

just saying don't get personal over this
i agree with you 100 % just the difference of viewpoint .

anyways guys
reviews are appearing on flipkart and only one problem which is patented hp style "OVERHEATING"

i thought this lappy had coolsense .

but if i get a cooling pad then can i game on it for 5 hours ? and can overclock it ?

and does the laptop overheat also while watching a movie .

i know you don't have the lappy but you can answer those questions based on previous experience and knowledge with hp laptops

and answer this

if asus releases laptop like x53ta with similar configuration like hp for 28 k is it
worth it to get hp or just get the asus .

thanks

 

[dashing.sujay]

^Coolsense = No MAGIC.

game on it for 5 hours

Gaming and heating are bread & butter in a laptop. (even a desktop, just that its more resilient)

and does the laptop overheat also while watching a movie .

No.

 

[coderunknown]

reviews are appearing on flipkart and only one problem which is patented hp style "OVERHEATING"

if he has bought there should be a certified buyers tag.. just cause HP = Heating Plate doesn't mean laptop will heat. its a general misconception that HP heats up. can't blame anyone even i had same kind of mindset.
Also AMD APU runs real cool. Even the GPU used is a weak one and shouldn't cause much heating.

but if i get a cooling pad then can i game on it for 5 hours ? and can overclock it ?

laptops are never designed for gaming. though running a few games is possible.
about overclock, this is a tricky one. bios is locked. only way is windows based OC utility and AFAIK there is none. though any utility that works on FX "should" work here too. also 1.9Ghz is sufficient for the kind of game this laptop will handle.

if asus releases laptop like x53ta with similar configuration like hp for 28 k is it
worth it to get hp or just get the asus .

HP bundled battery is lower wattage than that of Asus. If this laptop can score 5hr idle time, an Asus should offer around 1-1.5hr more backup. Other than their DV series, most HP use 47Whr battery.

ohh one more thing regarding windows
after registering it
1)can i use this home basic on my computer also with updates and all means can this windows be used on multiple systems or will it work only on the registered computer

2)and if i format my lappy and install another os like linux
will it still stay genuine and be usable with updates if i format it again and install home basic

3) " MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION "
is it possible that after getting my laptop i don't register my windows and go and sell it to local shop dealer .
i mean will this windows get registered genuinely only for this laptop or can it be registered on other laptops so that selling is possible

please guys i am a student and short on "cash" so any saving even for rs 100 would be very valuable for me keeping this in mind please answer those

sincerely thanks

 

[dashing.sujay]

1) single system, using it on multiple systems will lead to blacklisting by MS.

2) Yes, it will stay genuine.

3) No.

 

[coderunknown]

1)can i use this home basic on my computer also with updates and all means can this windows be used on multiple systems or will it work only on the registered computer

windows comes preinstalled. only way is to try the cd key on a different PC. and this will lead to what sujay said. don't ever try such thing.

2)and if i format my lappy and install another os like linux
will it still stay genuine and be usable with updates if i format it again and install home basic

you'll need the product key thats printed on the base of the laptop. or something like that. i am not sure though. but definitely possible.

3) " MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION "
is it possible that after getting my laptop i don't register my windows and go and sell it to local shop dealer .
i mean will this windows get registered genuinely only for this laptop or can it be registered on other laptops so that selling is possible

most likely it is an OEM Windows version. pre registered. won't work on other laptops or PC.

please guys i am a student and short on "cash" so any saving even for rs 100 would be very valuable for me keeping this in mind please answer those

if you are short in cash, wait. let it appear in local vendors or similar model from Asus. That bag can be returned or mayn't ship with a bag and cost 1.5k less. a bit slower GPU and you should have laptop with genuine windows for 28k.

keep checking for deals in other forum that allow vendors to sell products. They usually sell same model for 2k less than flipkart.

 

[dashing.sujay]

Yes, you're correct.

Will work most likely as its not hardware bound. (not fully sure, but yeah)
