I'm trying to weight the relative importance of memory, cpu and graphics card to find the best small notebook that will be used as general laptop but will also be used for some Flash animation production work. I don't want to cheap out but i also don't want to spend more on stuff that won't buy me performance for the tasks at hand. Note, I have high end desktops for more intense editing and graphics heavy work. Here are 3 laptops that have gotten good reviews that i'm considering:
Toshiba Portege R835-P88 13.3" Notebook Computer
2.5GHz Intel Core i5-2450M
Cache L3: 3MB
Memory Type: 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM
Installed: 6GB
Capacity: 8GB
Graphics Card Type: Integrated
Installed: Intel Graphics System Mobile HD with up to 1696MB Shared
versus:
ASUS U36SD-DH51 Laptop Computer - Intel Core i5-2430M 2.4GHz, 4GB DDR3, 640GB HDD, 13.3" NVIDIA GeForce GT 520M
versus (step down to an i3)
ASUS U31SD-DH31 Laptop Computer - Intel Core i3-2330M 2.2GHz, 4GB DDR3, 640GB HDD, 13.3" NVIDIA GeForce GT 520M
thoughts?
