Have never seen slim RoG, the ones I see are gila heavy and edgy. Will have to walk walk in mall to see, still quite doubtful whether will be suitable for work environment.

Software is not an issue to me as I don't use Windows (work is all on Linux and related anyway since years ago). So I look basically for solid hardware, no 'special' things, and drivers aren't a big deal.

search up ROG-GL502VM

hmm, if so might be overkill actually for you.

well just check the 15 5000 out, (need to turn off something in bios to get linux to work) but after that should be good enough to do much things.
toss an ssd and its blazing fast (since the bottleneck is the hhd in that model, i realised-lah)

Asus not as competitive in pricing nowadays, thats why I dont layan as much, but their gaming is still good (until custom makes).

just brought a 2016 late Dell mid gaming i7quad gtx for 3.4k with ssd/hhd combo FHD
build is relatively good and battery lasts 4-5hrs
and another 2016 late dell inspiron 15 i5 amd 2.8k HD with no ssd but fully optimized (means its as fast as my n53sn ssd in most parts other than ps/ai/cad).
can last 6 hrs so far (just need to swap out to ssd)

planning to get another laptop soon (rog thin one or xps)
but you are probably looking at 3k onward.

I would strongly recommend looking at the xps (and probably buying it overseas as its so much cheaper) if ur budget allows
FHD-QHD 97% colour accuracy, i7 quad, 16gb ram, ssd setup combo HHD, gtx 1050 and very good battery life (starting at 6k lah)

else go for ROG thin (red black design 1) 4.2k

Firecuda is a SSHD? Your current SSD + HDD is better. SSHD is in my experience not that much better than HDD performance-wise.

Of course, 32GB is a bit small....

Yeap. It's a sshd.i need to change as the current harddisk shows lots of slows. Low health problem. From last night reading, I probably just do it to replace it with sshd, and install chromium os on the issd. Dual os.

My N53SN also does this thing..
Something to do with not sleeping well, something trigger to wake device, then it standby and overheat and shutdown.

Ooh that's a nice machine, wish it'd been available when I was changing laptop end of last year.

The issue is that the laptop is waking up when moving around. I've had that happen before and I think it's to do with some keys being pressed. Not sure if windows supports disabling keyboard-wake for sleeping (don't use it), but that may help.

yea, honestly, its a great machine, battery life is great too, as I move around often, i needed the battery life, however the 8gb ram is really a bummer, wish it could have a touch screen and the 16gb ram spec available oversea.
