Thin and Light 11-14 notebooks gaming worth compendium

[forumbrah]

The NP535U3C is essentially an AMD "ultrabook." The case is 0.69 inches thick and weighs 3.35 pounds. The price is not terrible if you're looking for something slim and light but why couldn't Samsung have used the A10-4655M instead?

Did it have USB 3.0?

This site says it doesn't.

Although Amazon shows that it does.

Any idea if the RAM is user upgradable?

the 14 inch apparently has the 4655

the 13 inch has the 4455..

its now looking like Thinkpad EDGE s430 comes with a GT 620m not a GT 630m,
which is pretty annoying !.

hmm guess the sony s13p really is the only option, but its annoying that the free vita offer only applies in the states.

Seriously considering pulling the trigger on the dv4t-5100. Also considering the Lenovo Y580 but I think I'd prefer the smaller size, lighter weight, and battery life of the dv4t.

I've been searching but I can't find any feedback on it. HPs do come with a 21 day return/refund though right? May just take a chance on it.

Ooh this is exciting.

Is there a similar list somewhere that also includes up to 15/15.4" laptops? I don't mind the n56 from asus and at 15", you are more likely to see more powerful graphics cards (650m).

The U2442N should have a 650M !

Gigabyte shows off 14-inch U2440/U2442 Ultrabooks and Carbon X11 notebook - Notebookcheck.net News

So, this is coming directly from Gigabyte website ...
The only main point is ; will the 650M model be available outside of Asia ?
Can it be imported ?

Man, a 14" with a 650M ...

Doesn't it offer Thunderbolt? Graphics intensive tasks can be resolved if you dock with an eGPU over Thunderbolt.

You can check one out at your local Costco if you wanna critique the build quality. Though I doubt Costco will let you do a full review with benchmarks and thermal.
