Came across this 16.4' mid-level gaming laptop at digital mall SS14 today ^___^

According to the screen, its called Sony Vaio VPC117HG. I think it is kind of new XD [i7 with GT330M]


Well, it seems quite some people are going for 15- 16' range laptops. Why not start a topic and let the SIFUs here decide which 1 is deemed the best ^^ (Due to my lack of knowledge, I may be missing out many other formidable laptops so you could suggest them if you want XD) I feel the M15x is kind of out of the league so I din't include it (People with higher budgets most probably choose the M15x hehe).

So:



vs

[including the i5 variants]

vs



vs



Also, it seems that people who are aiming for these laptops usually have a budget range of below Rm5k. 1 more thing worth mentioning is that if you want to extend warranty of these gaming laptops to 3 years, it will definitely surpass the RM 5k mark T_____T Unless you choose the i5 variants of the XPS Studio 16 (Priced at RM 4,199, 4,599 before warranty extension), which aren't that bad either ^^

So guys, what say you? ^^

first? i think the dell xps is still on top with the screen spec and gcard.

Where's Asus G51Jx and Asus N61Ja

ya ya, asus N61ja... and, g51, the price, is it under 5k?

how can BenQ S57 be missing from here???

RM5.2k from mucro.asia

Can't find any flyer for that?

Yes, I agree, XPS Studio 16 has rather good specs, and not to mention the looks!!!

Yahor... how could I have 4gotten about ASUS. No offence to ASUS fans ^^
But I don't have their latest brochures and I find their websites are not that easy to navigate @___@ It would be nice if you guys could share the specs and price of these laptops, I'm interested XD XD

I've never seen any BenQ brochures, sorry sorry T_____T

sxps 16 gets my vote especially the i5 variant SXPS 1647

still have benq s57? i think better put models that still in the market.

ya, i5 spec is entertaining me more than i7.
aaahhh.. ya 5650 is really good, if only 14" notebooks get that card, i totally buy that 1. now stuck with 5470.

to TS ! I did lovw to see more recommendation ^^
By the way, the Sony Vaio VPC117HG cost how much?

Well, the price shown on the laptop screen is RM 7,299 o XD
Its 16.4' and the specs is not that good I think @____@
I would buy an Alienware with that sum of money [drooling] >_____<
I like both Toshiba and DELL ^^

I still can find S57 here, RM3199 with BD
At least, still displayed on the rack

By the way, its VPCF117HG

i knew it ! it's Viao !! Argh..too expensive !

hahaha, 7.2K??? better take alienware. enough to take m15x, better in every aspect.

well then, it deserve it spot here ^^

100% agree with you ^^ I can't see why the Vaio is so expensive, the specs are not really extraordinary and even if you are paying more for reliability, it is still way too expensive O____O
Well, I've got to stop dreaming le since can't afford any of these two XD XD


True true, feel free to add in the specs and price of the S57 (I have no idea how) XD

BenQ S57, C2D P8700 2.53GHz, 2GB DDR2, 500GB HDD, ATi HD4650 1GB, BluRay Reader, 15.4'', Intel Wifi 5300 b/g/n, Bluetooth, Card Reader, RM3199

As for RM7.2K, I might as well take Asus G73JH or Vaio Z for RM6K

haha, brand maa.. advertisement also A LOT. need to pay for that also. if talking about reliability, theres a lot of brand out there that is reliable, if talking about design, vaio is among the nice design. no need dream, buy something better n cheap. save money, can buy another thing(thats my way).

heres the spec for BenQ s57 -here-
price, 3.2k according to lee.

Walao! The S57 is new model? Weird that I've never came across it T_____T How come the specs so good 1? Not bad, not bad at all, the price is also tempting XD

Never get the chance to see the Asus G73JH T____T Wah... The Vaio Z is very very expensive ar, but very very light (like paper XD XD Stolen also cannot feel haha).... can buy Macbook liao? O___O

Kinda strange comparing 15/16" laptops from different price ranges

My vote will always go to SXPS 16 Waiting for their HD5770 refresh
