    Hi Guys,

    I am looking at getting a 8935g but there is very little information around on the net and I cant find any to view in the shops!

    I have a few questions before I decide to buy.

    1. I want to get the cheaper model with T6500 but acers website says in one sentence ATI 4670xt then in the next ATI 4650xt! please can you let me know what it comes with.

    2. I see the gfx card is switchable, it says it switches to intel gfx on battery but my questions is can you choose when to switch (ie ATI on battery and intel on mains?)

    3. Can anyone let me know what the temps, heat and noise is like? I currenty own a dell 1555 and I am really annoyed with the thermal properties. It runs incredibly hot in both idle and 3d. Plus the ati 4570 gets upto 95c then downclocks :(

    Thanks so much in advance

    We have few, but they are not of the most active ones :) Make a post in this thread, and I hope that you'll receive response :)
