Hi guys. I'm planning to buy a new laptop before the end of this week. I'm currently trying to decide between getting a HP Pavillion dv6 or ASUS N55SF. Any advice on which laptop is better (in terms of performance, build quality etc)?

I'm also open to other suggestions. My requirements are i5/i7 processor, 4GB RAM, 15in display (prefer HD or higher), good GPU, and good battery life (preferably at least 3 hours). Blu-Ray player and backlit keyboard would be a plus.

Uses are for university coursework, watching movies and moderate gaming (think Mass Effect 3, Battlefield 3 etc). Budget is rm4000. Oh, and I'm gonna use the laptop for university in UK.

Thanks a bunch! smile.gif

Asus laptops come with 2 years international warranty as standard, so noneed to fork out extra money to extend the warranty brows.gif
Considered this one yet?
Asus G53Sx-SZ039v, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GTX560M (2GB)@RM3999, backlit keyboard, gaming backpack & mouse

Runs on 8 cell batteries and shouldn't have any problems reaching 3 hours with Wifi and min power configurations. But you'd have to sacrifice in terms of portability yo haha~

Otherwise, (i) get the i5 variant (not i7, not worth it imho) of the N55sf OR (ii) Get the Dv6, then extend the warranty to international and you'd be good to go [or you can just buy it in UK as well] haha

Hmm, the G53Sx sounds good. Think it's available at ALL IT Hypermarket??
