For gaming, Dell Inspiron 14 is better nod.gif

But for that price range, you might want to consider these instead, they're better:
Acer
Aspire 4750G, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT 520@RM1949[2.3kg], 3 years local limited warranty

Asus
A43Sv, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT540M(1GB)@RM2349[2.44kg]


You have a good budget, can consider these instead:
14"
Lenovo Y470, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT550M@RM2999[JBL]

15.6"
HP Dv6-6001TX, i7-2630QM + AMD HD6770@RM3499 [2.63kg]; Beats headphones
HP Dv6-6114TX, i7-2630QM + AMD HD6770 + BluRay@RM3799 [Beats][2.63kg], [4GB RAM] Beats headphones, HP optical mouse, HP 500GB external HDD

Use the remaining money to extend warranty to 3 years and you'll be good to go~

Thanks for the suggestiion Lenovo Y470 seems very attractive indeed. At first tempted to get XPS 15. But then kinda let down by its graphic card as only 540m optimus only.

As I'm using dell 6400 and got it for more than 6 years and still running healthy till now. Only lacking is its overheated and lagging when running flash on website ^^ .

wonder if we can change screen for Y470 ? Thanks ^^ . As im using 1650 x 1050 resolution screen on 15 inch laptop. Miss good old days where dell can customize all specs.
