Topic: suggest laptop for a student

[brianbat]

mga mam at sir, hingi lang po ako ng suggestion kung ano bang efficient na laptop para sa isang estudyante? 3-4gb of ram will do basta pang gawa lang ng paperworks at research kahit wala nang gaming kase hindi naman ako/sila masyado naglalaro.

balak ko kasi magpabili sa kuya ko na nasa US siguro mga 300$ lang pwede na. or kahit umabot pa 500 basta reasonable lng at efficient nga.

any suggestions sir/mam?

salamat!

pili ka dito
pre set specs
8gb ram
15-16 inches
windows 8
kaw na bahala if gusto mo ng extra specs pinaka mura $449, i suggest buying a flash memory. if estudyante ka u need to transfer files. depends if ilan,u might want a wireless router if wala ka pa.
i would not get an HP brand, hp gamit ko..patay sindi ang wifi its only 2 yrs old

Brand
- Toshiba, DELL or SONY VAIO. wag ka kukuha ng HP or COMPAQ. utang na loob

RAM
- Kung paper works at research ka lang naman, sa totoo lang kahit 2GB lang ang memory ng laptop mo eh pwede na. Pero ang standard memory ng mga laptop sa ngayon eh 4GB na din naman talaga.

PROCESSOR
- Dual core pwede na dyan sa requirements mo. Pero gaya lang ng situation sa memory, mataas na din ang mga specs ng laptop na mabibili sa ngayon. Karamihan naka i3 na din. Syempre INTEL ang piliin mo.

DISPLAY
- Kung ako tatanungin mas okay yung 13 or 14 inches na size. Kasi kung 15 pataas, mukang masyadong malaki na yun. Pero kung accounting student at kelangan mo ng numpad, ayun, tsaka lang sayo swak ang 15" na laptop.

Yang price mo na $300, baka kulangin yan. Mas sure ka kung nasa $400-$500, magagandang specs at brand na ng laptop yan. Pwede ka magtingin-tingin sa amazon para magkaroon ka ng idea.

eto sir SARIWANG SARIWA, bagong dating sa Best Buy US, the new AMD BEEMA APU platforms have arrived and are said to be 40% much more efficient than the previous generation of APUs and if you do decide you want to play games this will be more than capable of playing games than an Intel i3 or i5 with Intel HD 4000 Graphics

ang iintayin ko yung 17" version nito hehe

salamat po sa inyo mga sirs!

sir masterchief, kino-consider ko po ang suggestion nyo specs-wise tska yung pricing kaso lang marami akong kakilala na nasira ang kanilang laptop dahil sa overheating daw at unfortunately HP ang brand ng mga yun.

tanong ko lang sir kung totoo nga bang may diperensya sa ventilation ng HP?

HPs used to be one of the bad brands but after 2010 they seem to have turned around Quality Control for laptops

asa gumagamit yan, me and my cousins have had laptops last 3 to 5 years na gaming use bago magkamajor problems basta ang sabi ko sa kanila:

1) buy a laptop cooler, A GOOD ONE not just any generic coolers that have powerful fans that blow up the direction of the cpu's hottest points usually below the CPU and GPU either 1  Big fan in the middle or 3 small fans, sure maingay but this will keep your laptop cool and kung makakahanap ka yung elevated sa likod with an aluminum surface

2) NEVER EVER USE laptops on beds, sfas and other soft surfaces with cloth that may change shape to cover ventilation holes that can also absorb and reflect heat back to the laptop meron akong pamangkin na matigas ang ulo sinabi ko na wag gagamitin sa kama ayun wala pa 2 years mabilis na magoverheat

3) after your warranty expires(usually 2 years) have it regularly cleaned and if possible get thermal paste reapplied

4) GET EXTENDED WARRANTY (US Stores offer that especially best buy)

ganun po ba sir..

tatagal kaya ang laptop extending hours like lets say 24-48 hours straaight nahindi pinapatay?can the cooling system compensate for this?

maraming salamat sa reply sir!

24-48 hour nonstop use is not advisable for laptops/notebooks because of the effects of heat exposure for extended periods of time especially if you are not in an air conditioned room, may rest interval din dapat every 8 hours, if you plan to use it like that your better off getting a Desktop PC because they are built to run for longer periods of time with the proper cooling setup

in my opinion this is the best Laptop cooling option in the market right now, models differ fro size, this is for up to 17" meron din pang 15" and 19"
