LG P330 (i7 + Nvidia 555m!)

[ajgeronimo]

Ya the card could definately suffer from the smaller memory interface. But what I'm saying is, notebookcheck is saying that being at the top does mean it's the best of the bundle in their opinion. That's why it's saying it's ordered by performance.

Hopefully galim can get us some benchmark numbers because the only laptop listed with the GF116 so far that has benchmark numbers has a Core i3.

i found this link, i thought this might help with the GF106 vs GF116 topic

I think he meant the z11 has the better screen.

Sounds like he is also saying that the LG display is close to his Z11 ... still encouraging news.

lets hope so! but nevertheless the temperature tests are the most important ones !

what does a portable notebook with a powerful gpu help when you cant use them because they get too hot or throttle..

its a fact that the 555m in the m14x is faster, although it is very positive that this is the 144 shader version

I just found a "review" of the notebook showing some more pictures: google translated into english, korean source.

But it doesn't have any info on noise/scren quality/battery runtime/temperature readings ... still looking forward for a thorough review...

It's not IPS..

All I've read is that Koreans are trying to wait for the IPS model as well, but it is projected that it will have a super premium over the other models.

Heck, the P330-UE70K runs for almost $1800~$1900.

With the IPS option, people are speculating that it would easily go over $2100.

Bit related, but how much is the P220 with the IPS going for in USD?

128GB SSD model : P220-SE50K ~ $1250
320GB HDD model : P220-SE3(x)K ~ $1000
(The pink model seems to be going for cheaper, about $920?)

Went through the first few pages, but didnt have time to go through all 47 pages. Anyways I found this:

P330-UE40K:
'LG ???? P330-UE40K 2?? i5-2435M(2.4) 640GB 40GB GeForce GT555M 13.3?? ??????? 4G' ?? ????
P330-UE70K:
'LG XNOTE [??? 8G FULL ??] P330-UE7UK Core i7 2640M 4GB 750GB GT555M 13?? ??? ???? ???' ?? ????

I'm not korean, but when you hover your mouse over the two big buttons it shows something like "but it now" and "add to cart"

After I click buy it now, I get the checkout screen, I think the first big buttons says "buy next" or something when you hover it.

Then I get login screen, I assume the 2nd set of boxes is to register since the top button shows "join us" when you hover your mouse over it.

This is where I stop:
Google Translate

I can see why they would need my name, address, and phone number, but I would never give out my SSN to buy a laptop. Especially in a language that I can not understand.

Does anyone know why they need my ssn?

Most Korean sites do actually.

And that format is Korean SSN, so your SSN won't work.

Again, if you need a P330 I am able to buy them when I'm in Korea and ship them to you.

Wait, so what's the verdict on this thing? Is it as good as we thought? Is there anything coming early 2012 that competes with it? What / when is the IPS coming? I love my Z12, and it'd be PERFECT if it had a better video card. This seems like that alternative.
