Asus Eee PC 1201T vs. Lenovo ThinkPad X100e

Two of the latest CULV notebooks we’ve reviewed recently, the Asus 1201T and ThinkPad X100e, sported the single-core AMD Athlon Neo processor and ATI Radeon HD3200. We ran some benchmarks to compare the two and found out some interesting results.

While on the CPU side, both notebooks practically has the same chip, the ATI Radeon HD 3200 doesn’t look the same. Just look at the GPU ID below:

Yugatech 728x90 Reno7 Series

We compared PassMark results between the two notebooks:

The big difference can be seen between the Radeon HD3200 GPU. That’s because of the memory allocation (256MB on Asus & 336MB on Lenovo) as well as the memory clock (200MHz/500MHz on Asus & 380MHz/333MHz on Lenovo).

Now that’s odd and don’t know how that came about. At least, if we look at the performance of the GPU, we know which one has the better one.

Asus Eee PC 1201T specs:
12.1″ display @ 1366×768 pixels
AMD Athlon Neo MV-40 1.6GHz
ATI Radeon HD3200 256MB
2GB DDR2 RAM
320GB HDD

Lenovo ThinkPad X100e specs:
11.6″ dispay screen @ 1366×768 pixels
AMD Athlon Neo MV-40 @ 1.6GHz
ATI Radeon HD3200 336MB
2GB DDR2 RAM
250GB HDD

The Asus has an SRP of Php21,900 and the ThinkPad X100e is Php28,990 — both having no OS pre-installed.

We got more PassMark results for the ThinkPad X100e here and the Eee PC 1201T here.

    I’ve been surfing online more than 2 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me.
    In my view, if all webmasters and bloggers made good
    content as you did, the net will be much more useful than ever before.

    i think you should upgrade the BIOS for x100e.. there’s an issue of performance degradation when the x100e run on the older bios…

    I thought ATI had pretty sketchy linux driver support.

    Is the ThinkPad X100e already available locally? I’m looking to get this as my netbook. Yeah I know, Lenovo prefers to call it an entry-level ultraportable. :P

    @BrianB,

    I tried that and unfortunately, Asus doesn’t preload their Eee PC with Linux, at least in the Philippines. What you can do is check out if a particular model works with Linux and install it yourself.

    Can you request one of the people there to load it with Linux, Ubuntu maybe?

  20. Avatar for BrianB BrianB says:

    Any chance there’s a seller who would put Linux on the Asus? I want the preloaded Linux on the original Eee PC.
