having a not 100% laptop(things need replacing more than a performance thing) and now having a SFF pc i can tat with and upgrade i was toying with the idea of replacing my laptop(sig) with either another or a netbook...
this is how mine stands to compare:
i5 430m 2.26ghz 1066mhz fsb
4gb ddr3 ram
640gb hdd
hd5470 dedicated
blu-ray
15.6 hd led lcd
battery and wireless pretty much the norm
win7 HP 64
now this has been a great laptop that 3-4yrs ago cost me over 600 new, but since i stopped playing games and storing stuff and now ive backed everything up to external hdd and reset everything ive currently only used 106gb(normal system files included), so have 534gb remaining and since im going to have big storage on the SFF i dont really need a 640 hdd, infact anything upto 300 will do and also my gaming has turned to facebook based and some other web based, so dont need a dedicated really, but i do know not a lot of integrated are that great which has leaded me to my question... i also dont need i5 really, but do like the ram size..
my missus has a few weeks old asus k55a which has integrated(intel 4000 i think) and for facebook and that it seems fine, but ive got nothing to compare to..
