but then again the cheapest 2nd gen Core i5 based laptop cost close to over 30k (a part of that goes to better build quality & better processor). whereas the 2nd gen dual core + 520M cost just ~23k.
lets stop the discussion here and wait for amanj to reply.
Hi all, thanks for the replies.
Cilus:*
b950 + gt520m is available for 23k but it's in white color. Please tell me abt it's build quality and how lack of ht and turbo boost in either b940/b950 affects gaming.
Niliesh:
Abt gt520m being in competition with hd3000, from intel there's no other top offering other than hd3000 for the price range discussed. Moreover hd3000 is directx 10.1 based. Gt520m is directx 11 based. So, as cilus mentioned games wud b btr with gt520m.
Sam:
Yes, I too agree for the prices u mentioned. I52nd gen + gt520m is at 35k. That's arnd 12k diff. for just 200mhz boost + ht + virtualization, don't know hw imp these r though. I think they won't make much of a diff at a resolution of 1024x768, fine for me. Moreover I hv some pending games too to complete lik dreamfall, black ops, crysis(I cue play only til dig site)
, mass effect series ...
All, now plz tel me if it's better to go for b950 +
Gt520m or shud i look for options for i3(currently no options at sucha price, m jus reluctant abt the color
...)as in pc I do hv gtx460 cyclone edition bt currently pc's nt working, prbbly a discussion fr some other thread.
