zg5 is faster and who says you don't have different stuff on startup- etc

[nitemeer]

I always disable most of the useless startup, which i only leave the same startup on for almost all my computer such as anti virus

[jalyoy]

Isnt the atom z520 slower than aton n270 and n280?

[nitemeer]

Yes, it is slower than n270 and n280

[Eddyah]

Cheers for that! Counter-intuitive! I would've thought the older model would be quicker due to the faster cpu...

[nitemeer]

both of the netbooks basically have the same tweaks and same softwares installed, maybe a minor of 1 or 2 video software not installed on one of them..

[ricebombx]

are the chargers the same ?

[DJA1TCH]

generally bigger machines are faster than smaller ones!! I just made a £99.99 offer on ebay for an acer notebook - I like the Atom's performance!!

[jwbjnwolf]

Who has got win8 on their acer one? If you look at my profile jwbjnwolf you will easily be able to find my video on win8 starting on it, and I also give some info for getting the gma 500 driver working in win8, just get the win7 version, and do compatiblity as win7.

Man that is about 4 times faster than xp on mine and I had a registry booster installed(tuneup utilities) which helped big time.

F*cK yeah! Dude.

@ slovelissimo, CCCP is ffdshow and Media Plater Classic (It atleast that what shows up here with me). I Jumped the gun on the GMA 500 being able to play HD, seems to be a problem with drivers on the GMA 500. The intent from Intel i guess was to make it hardware accelerate videos, but the drivers are too bad.

But there are videos on Youtube of GMA 500 playing 1080p. When I get my Netbook I will surely try :)

I don't mean to flame or anything, but I ordered my GMA 500 Netbook based on Video acc.

[slovelissimo]

NEVER use codecpacks,if tou want your movies to play without any problem! use media player classic home cinema or just install ffdshow filter-that's all. And GMA 500 is NOT able to hardware decode 1080p.

[Rettirauven]

Yes, with codecs it will. It has Intel GMA 500 graphics that support acceleration on HD. It will play 1080p too, just hook it up to a tv and go.

Google CCCP, first result you get, very good codecs.

[thewtruth]

Will the 751h play 720p video from the hard-drive (not youtube) smoothly?
