Hi guys,

Been around searching for a suitable replacement for my age-old but VERY reliable Dell inspiron 640m. Been using it for ~4years and the only hickup is when i played too much O2mania, the keyboard failed .

I'm a gamer with desperate need of hardware to play games. As you all can see, my inspiron isn't exactly what i had in mind(my father insisted on it T_T). I was contemplating of having a desktop or laptop so i wanted to ask about what majority thinks of my laptop choice. I don't have a big budget but will stick to RM3000.

Lenovo Y560p and Lenovo Y460 are the ones i'm looking at now. i don't mind the little extra weight on the y560p coz i do like bigger screen. but portability is of concern too. The lenovo malaysia website states there's a promotion offer for y460 at a same price for y560p.

Hi all,

Wanna ask, since SB's chipsets are faulty and can only be fixed/changed in march or april, are there any alternatives? i know that acer and lenovo once sold quite well for their latest SB proc-laptop (e.g y540p). Are there any good AMD proc laptop out there that can withstand them? so far that i know of is that AMD been pushing APU tech but what about mainstream laptops?(phenom II). I'm asking because there's an urgent need of getting a good processor laptop with up to date specs( gaming/simulation/daily office/net surfing).

Please advice thx!!!
