Hi Shamil: That's good that you have narrowed it down to the specific model you need.

Jim -- ASUS G74SX-RS72 has 15.6 inches display and I'm looking for 17" + . K95VM supports Direct X11 AFAIS so it should work well with WinPhone 7 emulator. K95VM does also support two HDDs, and is almost USD300 cheaper than ASUS G74SX-RS72.

And Windows Phone development requires a good graphic card for WinPhone emulator to work in all modes - I'm not sure if NVIDIAR GeForceR GT 630M with 1GB DDR3 VRAM is good enough for WinPhone emulator. Do you/anybody here know how to check is the subject notebook graphic card (NVIDIAR GeForceR GT 630M with 1GB DDR3 VRAM) good enough for WinPhone emulator? - are there anywhere minimal requirements for graphic cards listed - minimal requirements to run WinPhone 7 and WinPhone 8 emulators in all modes? > > Thank you. > > -- Shamil > > > Втр 13 Ноя 2012 07:34:42 от "Jim Lawrence" <accessd at shaw.ca>: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >Hi Shamil: > > > > > At first glance I would pick the Asus notebooks.
