Hi all sifus and simous, newbie here, nice to meet all of you.

Just wondering what laptop should i get for university, here is my budget and usages:


1. Brand : Not really sure which brand is the best. What you guys recommend? I want a brand that is ok and so-so, Not looking for the best but somewhere in the middle.

2. Budget : My budget is around 1.5k to 1.8k

3. Usage : Mainly for surfing the net, watching movies, games like DotA, CoD, L4D, or other popular games such as NFS which i have never played before on my lousy desktop i'm using right now. And also engineering programs which probably requires alot of RAM?

4. Size : 14' laptop. HD size doesn't matter as i bought the 500gb seagate HD from IT Fair which costs RM 99


I want at least an i5 and a ok/so-so graphic card. I want a laptop that is able to run smoothly, for example run music in the background while i'm doing assignments with internet explorer/firefox running. I just hope to get a laptop that is value for money. It's my first time buying a laptop/owning a laptop.

Thanks.

Hmm... probably i'll got for the Acer Aspire 4755G... RM2k+
Lol cause really tight on budget... was looking at the 4750G, somebody was selling for 1.7k but all so fast sold out...
Thanks for your advice
