Well, do you want to spend almost RM5K ?

if i have to, probably 4.5-4-6k is max. i do lots of video editing n i found 13" laptop that i have right now is too small to see d visual .
n also i need laptop than can play my editing footage realtime. so it be great if i can have both big screen and speed..
(am i asking too much with a very lil budget) .anyway thnks bro.

I guess that XPS 17 would do fine..
If want to spend less, there's Sager NP5175..

Hi learned bros,

I have come here to beseech your esteemed knowledge,yet again

Previously I have decided my budget between 2-3k,preferable brand between Lenovo or Asus.So that left me with y470 or n43 (or now n45).However! My main sponsor aka parents have said to try and find a good laptop suitable for my "needs",and I asked them how much is their budget.
Answer: 3-5k!~

Hehe so now I am in the market searching for a more powerful lappy suitable to my parents budget (LOL)

Brand: Asus/Lenove/Alienware(!)/better brands (?)

Budget: 3-5k

Screen size: 14-15" (I prefer 14 due to its portability,but I don't mind 15)

Usage: Normal university usage (only microsoft office stuffs,not software rendering or video editing etc),heavy downloading of movies,little bit of gaming (but I hope it will have the firepower to play Diablo 3!)

Preferance: Light (if possible),long battery hours (I like to lepak at coffee shop and do my revision for long hours),sturdy and tough (in case of accidents etc),decent speaker,not heating up quickly (but I can buy cooling fan)

It seems a lot of the higher spec lappy are gaming laptops,and I don't really mind them (eventho I may not be a hardcore gamer) since they look freaking awesome!

When substance is roughly the same I'll go for style anytime,budget permitting

Thank you in advance for your advice,bros

Asus U46Sv ?

The best 14'' for now is AlienWare M14x, but it isn't really that 'light'...

ah yes,light is just a bonus,it's not essential.i think that requirement is quite idealistic;i might just buy a tablet or ultrabook etc actually.In fact i am waiting for asus transformer 2 for really light usage on the go (I liked ipad2,but as there's no flash,it's NG for me)

as for m14x,actually i think it looks freaking cool! (eventho i might not utilise it's true capabilities fully).But i am just worried that other gaming laptop might have better spec w/ the same price range as compared to alienware..

Asus u46 looks promising too actually! I will have to research about this model actually,thanks for pointing it out

Well, there are better gaming laptop, but those are 15'' and much less battery life

If you ever go for the m14x, try to stick to i5-2410M (or most, i7-2630QM) to reduce the heat produced
Opting for an i5 will also ensure much longer battery life
Investing in an SSD would be a better choice as well~

And do make sure its warranty covered haha

waliu.. someone upgraded wor... @@



miahhaahaha.....

since u aiming a transformers later...

now get 15 incher lar... Asus G series.. =P

there is the M17x with a 9-cell battery. optional with i5 or i7

M17x isn't really that portable though due to its size...

hey guys.. im actually looking for a netbook, 10-inch, and basically no specifics and budget, i wouldn't mind spending anything within 2k.

Long battery life is essential and also HD video if possible.

I was looking at Asus 1018P and the 1015P as well. But I'm not convinced yet.

any suggestions?

Thanks!

hey guys, i do ask few comp shop here, seem like Asus N53Sv they din keep anymore... and now most of them focus on selling asus jay chow laptop... but with that price i can go for asus n55 lo... n 'm prefer 15inch screen...
do u guys know where can buy Asus N53Sv n the price?

wanna ask, when i go the ask for asus laptop from the shop, they recommend me alternative with is dell inspiron 15 with intel core i7 n graphic card nvdia gt540 (mrm 2699).... but does this model exist? coz i search from dell website the graphis card there is written gt525m wo, or are them the same?

any recommendation other than asus n55? the maximum budget i can go is 2.8k (the mimnimum the better)
usage: documentation, internet, presentation, movie, light gaming.

thanks or recommendation
