Going to buy a laptop for gaming, graphic design and internet soon but currently confused between these two choices that I've picked:


Asus C90S 15.4" >> $1,541

WSXGA+/ 512MB GeForce 8600M GT MXM II
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo Conroe E6600 2.4 GHz 1066FSB 4M with Arctic Silver 5
RAM: Kingston 2GB DDR-2 667 SODIMM (1X1G+1X2GB)
HD: Seagate Momentus 7200.2 160GB 7200rpm S-ATA 300
Battery - 6-cell Lithium Ion Primary Battery

- or -

Dell XPS M1710 17" >> $1888
WUXGA+/-256MB NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900
Processor - Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T7200 (2GHz/667MHz/ 4MB)
RAM - 2GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM 677MHZ, 2 DIMM
HD – 120GB 7200 RPM SATA
Battery - 80 WHr 9-cell Lithium Ion Primary Battery


Which would you choose and why?

definately the asus

1. the cpu is faster and has a faster front side bus.
2. it has a much much much faster 3d card
3. its cheaper
4. all in all 1 and 2 make for a faster computer.

bad points about the asus
1. smaller screen
2. probably less battery life, but i don't know much about batteries and if the number of cells has any effect on it. But generally the stronger 3d card and cpu will drain the battery faster, otherwise the smaller screen will make the battery last longer, so i'm not sure on this.
3. i had a friend with an asus, and they get smoking hot, not a "lap"-top unless you want to burn your lap.
