I have hp dv4 1241 tx laptop. it's overheats a lot.
personally i inclined towards asus laptops. Is asus laptop good as HP or DELL.

check my post. It already lists models that you should look out for.

HP heats up a bit. Asus laptops too heats up but much less. And be warned that 3rd gen Core i processors heat more than 2nd gen did. So before you buy wait for some trusted review or google a bit. This is true for all laptops. Not just HP in this case.

I have to give the same suggestion on every thread i.e. Wait for sometime and let other/all brands come up with IVB processor laptops. And as soon as it happens there will be a lot of fluctuation in the prices of laptops in market.
I suggested you to wait because no one buys laptops daily.

sorry mods, but i can't wait. i have shortlisted two models which is best among these.
asus k53sm sx010d rs. 39k
dell inspiron n4050 u560561 rs. 40k

thanks.

^K53sm-sx010D without any second thought.

Among the two obviously Asus one is much better.

finally purchased asus 010D @ 39.5K.

is this laptop does not support 32 bit software? even km player is not running(32 bit ver).

i think you have installed 64bit OS, so definitely 32bit software won't run .

ya definitely because motherboad cd support only 64 bit os.

All 32 bit applications are backward compatible, that means 32bit applications will work flawlessly on 64 bit OS but vice versa is not possible.

sorry made mistake but i think he is more confused,

don't install 32 bit OS, because you have 4GB ram
