actually that's how i wanna to describe it.couldn't find the words.

thing is im an addict for football games.PES,FIFA and FM.and these games always update yearly and every time it update,the minimum specification also increased.so if possible,im looking for a laptop that can at least play until 4 years of these games.my current laptop,toshiba satellite L30 can last for three years before i added more RAM (sadly only 2 years for FIFA and PES before my spec become outdated).now after nearly 5 years,it can no longer play these games.

Well, if you're not very demanding when it comes to graphic quality, the GT540m should be able to last 3 years or so since football games aren't really that demanding in terms of graphic performances
Just get the best GPU you can at a particular moment for your budget and you'll be fine~
Currently the top 3 laptops in terms GPU power: HP Dv6 (AMD HD6750), HP Dv4 (AMD HD6750) and Asus N53Sn (GT550M)
If you have a lower budget than that, then can consider those having a GT540m, or AMD 6630

hey [PF] T.J., need your help again, my friend narrowed down to the dell xps and the asus N53Sn, but he want a numpad

the asus have it but he dislike that speaker

so any other 15" under 3.5k have built in numpad? thanks again

Budget: RM3K+-
Usage: Do some homework, gaming(Not really much, but I'd love to test out my hardware ability like playing CoD series.)
Preferred size: As long as it doesn't have a numpad, feel so bulky.

I actually have done some survey at here,
there are some laptops already on my list.(4830TG, A43SV i7)
I've thought of getting an E350-powered netbook.
I have a gaming desktop at home so I think I won't need a gaming laptop.
I really need some advices on hardware quality. (Acer, Asus)
And also if I want to claim warranty, which brand would be better(in terms of speed and availability of service centers, I wouldn't want to wait a month to have my laptop fixed.)?
Thank you in advance

hi, im looking a laptop that good for movies for my sister. her budget is rm2000. i have no idea which one suitable for her....

haha dude...do tell me about it when u bought it lol...

For this i only can depends on luck, but most of my friends who use Acer's laptop, can say all got problem...

Well there are 15" with keypads, only that the specifications are not good enough to rival that of the Dell XPS 15 and N53Sn...
Why not just get a Dell XPS 15 and get an external keypad haha

Added on April 21, 2011, 3:33 pmEr... if you have done your survey you would know what I'm about to recommend right? hehe
I would suggest you to go for something 14" or lesser since you already have a gaming desktop...
Personally if you can wait, wait for the Acer 3830Tg, or you can buy from Singapork
But if you need it in a hurry, then the Acer 4830Tg, Asus A43Sv, Inspiron 14R, HP Dv4 would be good
The duration for fixing laptops depends on availability of components. The only way to avoid that is to get a Dell

alright, will try to convince him thanks again

What about HP Pavilion DV6 Series? It does come with numpad and has a decent speaker that nicer than the one in Asus. For me I would rather get the Dell XPS and get the external speaker instead as those speaker really can't beat with those external speaker, even a RM100 beat the internal speaker easily.

Added on April 21, 2011, 3:58 pmWhy do you want the OS? I do like the laptop without the OS so that it can have cheaper price, you can always install the OS by yourself.

Added on April 21, 2011, 4:00 pmIf I were you I would top up another RM250 so that I could get the Acer 4750G with latest Intel i5 processor plus 3 years warranty for free.

not really keen on 15" laptops..i guess im choosing the right laptop though.thanks anyway!

I want to get a new laptop for study purpose.
Budget not more than 3000MYR then its ok

Must be Intel 2nd generations processor

Not for gaming, and I want pink color, any pink is fine..
Thanks for reading and reply is appreciated..

14"
Lenovo IdeaPad Z470, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT520M@RM2499, colors: Black/Pink/Blue
Sony Vaio CA15, i5-2410M + AMD HD6630@RM3299, Colors: White/Pink/Green/Orange/Black
Dell Inspiron 14R, i5-2410M + AMD HD6630@RM2349

i checked the price on hp website, its price is close to 4k

thats why didnt select it since my friend budget is rm3.5k

Without the Beats headset, its possible to get for around RM3.2-3.3k?

Go to Dell's website to take a look>http://configure.ap.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?oc=t512042my&c=my&l=en&s=dhs&cs=mydhs1&model_id=inspiron-14r-n4110 I think you may like the La Pazitively Hot lids.
