i3 + HD4000 will rock for you ssk_the_gr8
I know but I can't find one laptop that is for me, 14", 4gb ram, no discrete graphics + 3 year warranty for under 35k
i3 + HD4000 will rock for you ssk_the_gr8
I know but I can't find one laptop that is for me, 14", 4gb ram, no discrete graphics + 3 year warranty for under 35k
and I'm so sure that I'm not going to get something according my required specs
clock to clock yes but remember AMD has 2 problem: low clockspeed (cause its a quad) and AMD turbo is far from perfect. Llano's turbo core was a big joke. i don't see much use of turbo here too.
i5 + a proper GPU (GT640M at least) will be lot better than this laptop if you are ready to pay the premium. and should deliver better battery life. with this laptop you get exactly what you pay for. fast HDD, fast ram (helps the fGPU), bag, Chicklet keyboard, genuine windows, better display and a GPU that can run game. so its definitely VFM but still if you have budget, go for better lappy.
I ran CPUZ on his comp and it won;t work
you mean 3rd gen i5 with GT640M and beyond ?

2nd or 3rd, processing power is almost same.
^the difference is of igp intel hd 3000 vs intel hd 4000 and it should be more power effecient than 2nd gen
hd 4000 is 30 to 50 % more powerful than hd 3000 . Other than that just the tag 3rd gen vs 2nd gen
but still its worth it because 3rd gen will be available at same or less price than 2nd gen.

Less price? Opposite actually.
2nd gen and are cheaper to manufacture 22nm( 3rd gen ) vs 32 nm( 2nd gen)
Who told you this ? I guess its opposite.
And nothing like 3rd gen are cheaper, the model you quoted is without OS, plus only 2GB RAM. fill the gap and it will be 40k. Now compare it with second gen counterparts.
read the first two paragraphs
Review: Intel Core i5-3570K (22nm Ivy Bridge) - CPU - HEXUS.net
what are your views on this
HP ProBook 4530s (2nd Gen Core i5) Laptop: Flipkart.com: Compare, Review HP Notebook
and this
Dell Inspiron 15 2nd Gen Ci5/ 4GB/ 500GB/ DOS Laptop: Flipkart.com: Compare, Review Dell Notebook
both are without windows
though hp is a premium designed laptop but 4000 rs extra for design and 5400 rpm vs 7200 rpm
i know dell one has 2 gb ram additional but that hardly costs you 600 rs even if you add that it is still same or cheaper as it is was launched a while ago so prices have come down and hp is new
They just guessed it, no concrete proof.
Don't compare probook with Inspiron please.
You're right on the idea behind every die shrink. Reduce die size. Fit more in a waffer and make manufacturing cheaper. But the thing is it isn't a rosy scenario these days. (It is faar more difficult and expensive to go from 32nm to 22nm than it was 90nm to 65nm or 65 nm to 45 nm back in the day.)3rd gen are cheaper because they do not offer any more performance than 2nd gen and are cheaper to manufacture 22nm( 3rd gen ) vs 32 nm( 2nd gen)
You're right on this.and regarding igp gains
NO one buys intel for igp who has heard about " AMD " even if they give same performance as amd because of their driver support ( intel suck big time in this department google it.. )
and mainly because of their difference in image quality
there is a lot of difference
intel sacrifices image quality to gain higher fps in games ( google it )
but in ivy bridge they have improved their image quality a lot
driver support remains to be seen
having said that ivy bridge is still a good option as it gives very fast cpu with a good igpu
whereas amd gives balance between cpu , gpu and battery
