Hey all,

I'm gonna be leaving Malaysia in a few weeks time, and I need to get a new laptop.

Budget around RM 2.5k

Needs to have good battery life since I'll be on the move for a bit (plus it's a long long flight tongue.gif)

Mostly be used for web, transcoding and watching movies (HDMI out is a must), playing some games life Starcraft 2 etc. Games don't need to be played at max specs, but should be able to play something so I don't get bored to death over there.

Webcam is must, though I think most laptops these days have them.

Preferable to have international warranty of some sort since I won't be back in Malaysia for at least half a year.

Any suggestions? Planning to start shopping this weekend / next week.

Alright, I'll check these two out at Low Yat. Are there other models with decent battery + decent gaming potential in that price range?

concern about battery life, choose c
concern about performance, choose a

Try to look out for the "dual channel" word or find out how many pcs of RAM is installed using the RAMMon.

Note: I have not test it because the returnil keep on blocking it as i installed it during the virtual mode is on.

My only issue with Acer is the quality and after sales service. Asus should be ok in terms of after sales service, but i am not sure about this.

I heard that Dell laptop purchased here's warranty is valid in Australia.
