just placed an order with prince for np8130. hope to get it early next week.

my parents dont trust sager..
my budget around 3 to 4k..

how to determine..?

if you mean intel core i7/i5/i3 first generation... you can just determine it by it model number.

i.e -> i7 740QM / i5 560M / i3 380M

for 2nd generation... you can notice there are additional "2"

i.e -> i7 2920QM / i5 2400M / i3 2100M


the newer generation processor's codename is Sandy Bridge

congratz for your buy..wait patiently

usage ?? gaming ..? study..??

then asus G53sx is one of the nice buy..? go for it.. no regret..

study and gaming..
1 more thing about asus..
does the standard selling unit of g53sx comes with Full HD?

Hi guys, I'm searching for a new laptop due to the death of my recent laptop
I'm a student therefore portability is paramount.
During the weekends, I often play FPS/MOBA games, therefore I don't really need a great deal of a graphic card, ,maybe decent? No hardcore gaming here.
The speed of the laptop is as well vital. My budget is lies in the range between 3k to 4k .
So shoot me with suggestions ! I'm trying to find the perfect laptop here !!
Cheers !

Bro Devour, the seller told me is 500gb. It is an old stock? Do u know how old is it?

why no ppl considering Lenovo Ideapad Y570 Core i7 ? not good? the gt555m is not good as asus and msi ?

few month old ~it is the first batch of a43TA...
if ur shop bring in the laptop very early..
that mean the laptop has been on every day as a demo set to display to customer..
== i don think it is worth to deal cos the laptop ON every day at less 8 hour right ?

Yeah, its not as good... Why pay more for less?

1. No preffered brand
2. Budget below RM6000
3. Must have serial port
4. whatever screen size also can

Can refer here for all the laptops available in the current market : http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2026498

Or perhaps you could provide us with more specific details?

For me the others is not really important.
i'm looking for a new laptop with serial port cause currently in the market very difficult to find.
so need some recommendation.

Guys my sis asked me to help her buy a lappy. Here's what she wants

A long-lasting lappy (like 4-5 years long)
Budget around 2k-2.5k
She's a student
She's not a gamer so no need all the high end mumbo jumbo
She wants to be able to watch movies

Reason why very long-lasting like that is due to her old Acer laptop that she got from 2006 and still working till now. So she doesn't really trust any other brand other than Acer but just hit me with some recommendation.

acer
TimelineX 4830TG, i5-2430M + Nvidia GT540M(2GB)@RM2499[2.17kg]
Travelmate 4750, i5-2430M + Intel HD3000@RM2299[2.4kg]
Travelmate 8481, i5-2467M + Intel HD3000@RM2699[1.5kg], W7P

Thanks for the fast reply . I'll be making a quick review on those now. Better be safe than sorry

Hi guys. looking for my first laptop here.

1. Preferred Brand: Anything that is good enough will do
2. Budget: RM2800
3. Usage: Normal working tasks, a bit of modest gaming like angry birds etc but still hoping for quite fast processor though (Intel preferred like i5 or i7 if price is right)
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 13-14" LED

Additional info:

1. If possible I wish to have one with backlit keyboard

2. At least 640GB HDD

3. Last but not least if possible Bluetooth 4.0 as iPhone 4S uses BT 4.0

All of these directs me to Acer nice spec with relatively lower price, maybe like 4752G (RM1899) or 4755G (RM2799) but there's just so much of hooha that Acer is not good enough, overheating etc, how true is this?

Not sure about backlit keyboard though, I think Acer doesn't have it?

Thanks.

Hi. My laptop broke down just nice when I'm taking my final year project.
It's time for new one so here's what I need:

1. Preferred Brand
- Asus / Toshiba

2. Budget
- 2.3k tops

3. Usage
- Study essentials (programming and office)
- Multimedia (heavy Photoshop and music lover)
- Download paradise (I need loads internal storage)

4. Preferred laptop/screen size
- 14" - 15.6" will do

Additional info would be:
- I don't care USB 2.0 or 3.0 as long got 3 ports.
- RAM 3GB and up only.
- Graphic card is a must. ATI preferable. nVIDIA only if RAM >= 4gb
- Intel processor. i-series preferable.
- Operating system is optional. Win7 preferred (if it affects cost, I don't mind freeDos suggestions)

THANKS!

Thanks for the recommendations. Where can I buy the HP Dv6 at that price?

Angry birds is considered as super light gaming
I guess the Dell Vostro 3450 suits your requirements just nice
Dell
Vostro 3450, i3-2330M + Intel HD3000@RM2019, W7HB, Belkin Radius 15.6" Backpack
Vostro 3450, i5-2430M + Intel HD3000@RM2299, W7HB,backlit keyboard, Belkin Radius 15.6" Backpack

use the remaining money for warranty extension, upgrade to W7HP (if desired) as well as purchase of other accessories
