Asus Zenbook UX31 Review

The first time I personally saw the Asus Zenbook, I knew it would be my next laptop (the last two I bought were all Macbook Airs). And while ultrabooks are still in their infancy stage, they’ve already sparked interest and awe to the point of being an aspirational device. I’ve been using the Zenbook UX31 for a couple of weeks now and have actually made it my primary laptop without much hesitation. Check out our full review of the Asus Zenbook UX31 after the jump.

Monitor your CPU temperature

CPU Temp, CPU Temperature

For a couple of weeks now, I’ve noticed that my laptop is overheating too uncomfortably even when perched on that cush top. At first, I thought maybe it was due to the 2GB RAM upgrade I did a couple of weeks ago or that there’s something wrong with battery (which btw, I think needs a replacement soon). Besides, I’ve also noticed that the battery life has dwindled to just about an hour.

What’s your ideal Desktop Rig setup?

During our recent dinner over at Noem’s new home, she consulted me about getting a new desktop PC for her study/library. She already has a gorgeous white Macbook but she thought it would be better to get a desktop for those long-haul usage in the house. That should help ease the stress on the laptop battery too (since you won’t be using it that much when at home).

I saw her budget worth just over 50k and I thought I’d give her another option to look at. Here’s my recommended set up for the stay-at-home problogger and entrepreneur mom:

AMD Athlon 64 3800+ Dual Core (2.0 GHz) – Php4,250
MSI K9N Neo-F nForce 550 – Php 4,110
(Socket AM2, 4 SATA slots, 4 DIMMs, 1 PCI-E 16X; 2 PCI-E X1; 3 PCI; 10 USB, Gigabit LAN; RAID (0, 1 & 0+1); SATA2; ATA133, Realtek 7.1 CH HD audio)
2 x 1GB Corsair 667MHz DDR2 RAM – Php 3,840
320 GB Seagate Barracuda 7200 SATA – Php4,520
Lite-On 20x DVDRW w/ Lightscribe – Php 1,920
PowerColor X1550 256MB GDDR2 128-bit Dual DVI/TV – Php 3,430
2 x 19″ Samsung 940BW (1440 x 900) – Php 19,990 (Php 9,995 x 2)
Mars 722 Thermal Advantage 500 watts casing (with A4tech mouse & KB) – Php 1,720
Powercom Ace UPS 650 volt-amps – Php 1,770

Total — Php 45,550

The final set up should look like this:

Samsung Dual DVI Monitor

The original quote to her by PCExpress was an Intel Pentium 925 3.0GHz and a 22″ AOC LCD screen. We skipped the Core 2 Duos entirely and I think the AMD Athlon x2 3800 still has the best bang for the buck. The dual monitor set up needed the x1550 for dual DVI support. Prices were taken from several sources including PCX and RSun Computers. I just love the mobo too — 10 USB 2.0 ports, 4 SATA2 slots and 4 DIMM slots of up to 4GB of RAM — lots of room for upgrades and add-ons.

Oops, I forgot the OS. You can get Windows XP Pro Home Edition for Php 4,580 or Windows Vista Home Basic at Php 5,250. Again, there’s always Ubuntu for free.

Are two heads better than one?

Most bloggers I read that sports dual monitors on their desktop say that it’s good for productivity. So, when I found out that the Samsung 19″ 940BW I bought 5 months ago dropped to just Php11,500, I got another one exactly like it.

Samsung Dual Monitor

I already got a dual-DVI PCI Express card (Powercolor X1550) I got from the Funan IT Mall, all I need to do is hook it up on the PC, plug the two LCD monitors and my screen real estate will double to 2400 pixels wide and 900 pixels tall. Alas, the motherboard does not support PCIe so I will have to delay this new set up. The other monitor in the picture is hooked up on my laptop for now (where I’m watching the new series Masters of Horror).

And about doubling that productivity thingie, I think not. It’s even distracted me from doing all the work I need to catch up on.

Hold off on a new PC purchase.

About a year ago, I upgraded my old and clunky P3 system and got myself an Athlon XP2400+. I’m not sure how much it cost me but with 512MB of RAM, an HIS Excalibur Radeon 9200 64MB, 1 x 40 GB & 1 x 80 GB Seagate HDD and 17″ Samsung 753 DFX flatscreen monitor, I guess the entire rig would have landed in the mid-30K to 40k price range. That includes my old Altec Lansing 321 and Samsung CDRW. It was a really great improvement then.

Just recently, I feel that my rig could not quite cope up with the demands and a possible upgrade is an enticing idea. So, after buying a new 160GB HDD last week-end, I checked out prices for a completely new rig. After rounding up an AMD 64 3000, 1 GB RAM, PCI Express card, DVD-RW and a 19″ flat screen monitor, I was abit shocked thatthe whole thing costs about Php55K. Still too pricey a PC for me.

Methinks, I should hold it off until the end of the year. With how fast new processors are being churned out by AMD & Intel, especially with the dual-procs and and quad-procs in the near horizon, I am sure the prices will drop to a more affordable level. Prices of RAM and hard drives are also on its way down. Let’s just wait a couple more months.

Besides, I am expecting a Mac Mini soon, so I’ll need to be on budget here. :)
