hi, im looking at getting a new 15 inch laptop.

budget about 4.5k

which brand should i get? im looking at dell atm -> dell studio corei7.

any other recommendations?

Can also consider Acer 5943G, i7 720QM + ATi HD5850@RM4799...

budget??
toshiba qosmio f60 battery hard to last 5 hour for gaming laptop
some old compaq got with numeric keypad, forgot model...
asus a52jc got numeric keypad..rm 2999 nvdia 310m

dell xps 16, i7 rm4899..
toshiba qosmio f60, i5, blue ray combo, rm4799

Let's say that both Asus A42JV and the Lenovo Y460 is no more in lowyat. any other recommendation? probably a toshiba??

Nah, no Toshiba (with the same price range and withing your budget) can beat both the laptops that you mentioned ...most probably via online is Dell :

Dell SXPS 16, P8700 + HD4670 @RM2999

Dell Vostro 3700, i5 430M + GT330M @RM2849


There are also laptops that met your requirements but a little over your budget, such as :


Sony Vaio CW26, i5 520M + Nvidia GT 330M, 1600x900 @RM3699

Sony Vaio EA16, i5 520M + ATi HD5650 @RM3999

Toshiba M645-1002TX, i5 450M + Nvidia GT330M @RM3999~~Coming Soon

Acer 5745G, i7 720QM + Nvidia GT330M @RM3799

Toshiba F60-S530, i3 330M + Nvidia GT330M @RM3799 + Toshiba Wireless Mouse+ 2nd and 3rd Year Local Warranty+ RM200 Shopping Voucher

err i know tri means three while dual means two
but what are the difference?

thx

the processing speed of course. because intel jump up from 2 core to 4 core, amd decided to go to 3. for better than 2 performance and lower than 4. which might be on some people budget. performance wise, i can't really tell since it has been quite some time since i read lengthy reviews on processor and such. hosh i love reading them before. now i'm more of photo-junkie.




So it's Dell huh? i don't know my dad will approve on that or not but thanks anyway. wish me luck finding the asus and the lenovo

Gud Luck..well, for Asus A42Jv, sure still got some stock available i guess while Lenovo Y460, might be hard to find one ..

Simple example :

One house got 3 cars while another only got 2 cars....so which is more merrier and can do a lot of stuffs?? Sure the house with 3 cars

3 core. for those who wanted quad core but in a very tight budget.

Hmmm...less than 2.5K?

Currently, got my eyes on:
-Acer Aspire Timeline AS1810TZ-412G32 -RM1849
-Acer Aspire Timeline 1830TZ-U542G32 -RM1899
-Acer Aspire 1825PTZ-412G32N -RM2299
-Toshiba Portege T110 -RM2199
-Dell Inspiron 11z -RM1599
-Dell Inspiron M301Z -RM1999

Thanks.

All in the line of Netbook...but one catches my eyes...and i recommend you :

Dell Inspiron M310z ...but if you want battery life then maybe can opt for Acer Aspire Timeline instead

Looking for a Laptop with any brand that good with gaming and also multitask that is around RM1600 and below . Might buy it tomorrow .

Fujitsu LH520, AMD P320 + ATi HD5430@RM1599~Tesco offer... normal price is RM1899
www.tesco.com.my/WebLITE/Applications/productcatalog/uploaded/pics/Promotions/WeeklyTab/Thisweek/pg1.jpg
Compaq CQ42-203AU, AMD P320 + ATi HD4250, freeDOS@RM1499
Acer 4551, Athlon II P320 + ATi HD4250, FreeDOS@RM1499
Toshiba C640D-1004U, AMD P320 + ATi HD4250, freeDOS@RM 1449

Any other recommendation ? With i3 processor perhaps ?

i3 you would need at least RM1.9K....

Let say if i have RM2k now ,what laptop can i buy ?prefer intel and not intergrated graphic card

Strictly under RM2K,
MSI CR400X, T4500 + Nvidia 8200M, FreeDos@RM1599
Lenovo B450A, T6570 + Nvidia G105M, freeDOS@RM1899
