Which one !?

[Rochefort]

A bit afraid by the heat of a W510, I'm planning a T410 purchase
I'm balancing between THIS ONE and THAT ONE
It's different PCs but I want the best quality for the lower heat.
Price is not an issue.
Thanks a lot

The i5 with the Intel GPU will run cooler. Performance or Graphics questions can only be answered if you tell us exactly which applications you run on a laptop.

70 % Internet, 20 % Word & Excel , 10% family movies = nothing really intensive.
I've never seen WXGA & WXGA+ panels and I want the more seenable one for showing to my customers ( some of them have poor eyes )
I love the W 510 for the USB3 ports but it's warm
In France , we've only T 510i in WXGA without eSATA port...Why !? I don't know, only the T 410 sport an eSATA port.
The T 410s sports only 1,8" drives and I've 2x 2,5" SSD drives.
According to the T 410 Notebookreview :" ...The WXGA+ screen on the T410 with dedicated graphics offers good color reproduction with better than average contrast. The WXGA screen on the T410 with integrated graphics also has good color reproduction and contrast but it has a slight blue tint compared to a neutral white on the WXGA+ panel. Backlight levels are stronger on the WXGA panel when both panels are set to the same brightness level...."
I'm much more confident about your advice coz you know you're talking knowing all the models.

Go with the T410 with WXGA+, trust me, I just got it and it's amazing. Now if battery or portability isn't an issue, go for the W510.

The Intel GPU will be fine for what you use a computer for. Agreed on the WXGA+ LCD. I have the same one in my T410 and like it.

Is it a large difference between the WXGA vs WXGA+ ?
14" WXGA = 1280 x 800 = 107,1 dpi
14" WXGA+= 1440 x 900 = 120,4 dpi
my T60 is a perfect 116,7 dpi
Is there a large margin of color saturation and accuracy between the two resolution ?
Sorry for annoying you with my boring questions but I only know my own TP .

I don't know personally because I haven't tried WXGA but honestly, a few more bucks can save you a huge feeling of remorse if you ever have it. Think of it as this way, you spend a thousand dollars on a great machine yet you cheapen out on the screen. The screen is what displays everything you own and put into it. If you cheapen out a few bucks, you basically screwed yourself over for the other hundreds spent on the parts.

In France we can't configurate our TPs, we can only choose between THIS ONE and THAT ONE !
Strangely it's only T 510i which are offered ! no T510 !?? and the T510i are without eSATA port and only 16/10 WXGA 1280 x 768 !!!
An other boring question....Is the incoming Sandy Bridge worth of waiting ?
Thanks a lot

X3. I haven't seen a WXGA screen, but the WXGA+ I got on my T410 works great for me.
