graphic card also diff

according to him the graphic card performance is about the same

Hi, I'm looking for a laptop around RM 2500 to 2800. I prefer to stick to ASUS as my old laptop M50VM has got old.

I would prefer the U series for its mobility but the price would seems to be higher than the N series which I also fond of.

The requirements are having a comfortable keyboard, a laptop that stays cool (my M50VM heats up easily), not emphasize on gaming (the games that I play are dota.dota2 ) , 14" or above (may not be important).

I'm using it for running programming and IT stuffs (student)

I've saw a ASUS N56VM-S3022V for RM2699 which I think is quite suitable, I would like to ask whether there is other model that is more fit to my requirements.

THanks.

how about the cost of the GPU?i though is GT640M for 14" is little bit more??

Hello there. I am looking for a budget notebook, 14", budget not more than RM1,300. Main purpose is for keeping in touch with frens overseas and internet surfing. Please recommend me a suitable model.

Thank you.

Wow has the price of Asus N56VM dropped so low?

Most new laptops in the market now are more focused on N series.
You can go for:

14"
N45SL (Jay-Chou edition), i5-2450M + Nvidia GT635M@RM2899[Bang & Olufsen], 750GB (7200rpm), Color: White

15"
N55Sl-S2064v, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT635M + (1600x900)@RM2899[Bang & Olufsen], 4GB, 750GB(5400rpm)

These are more worth it compared to N56VM

15.6' screen size only

mainly use on gaming(mid~~i didnt play any heavy graphic games) , for movie and music(more prefered best performance on this) and i'm still studying college and of course use it for revision like doing question and reading lecturer''s note~~~



SUGGESTION PLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HELLO GUYS I'm seeking some help here
I'm looking for laptop with a8/a6 processor and of course with trinity new vision tech
I'll used it for graphic softs and mainstream game
I was googling arround and it end with frustation
not many laptop with amd processor,
laptop/screen size can be considered
with the amd low cost processor my was budget about RM2000+-
AND DONT FORGET LEAVE CONTACT WITH RESELLER

1. Preferred Brand
Lenovo, but if other brand can offer better performance:price ratio, its fine too.

2. Budget
Undecided, Would appreciate if i can get a list from RM2k to RM3.5k and RM4k

3. Usage
Desktop on-the-move if possible, 5 days in apartment, 2 day at house cycle. otherwise stationary so i can afford to carry the bulkiest laptop there is.

-Mid-High End Gaming (Battlefield 3 Max/Near Max? Looking for 1080p@60fps with at least 8xAA/AI, ideally 16xAA/AI.)
-Video Recording (Able to record above without any noticable (able to maintain 75fps) performance hits with Fraps/Bandicam/MSI Afterburner), high HDD write speed. (Dont notebook come with SSD nowadays?)
-Video Editing (Sony Vegas, Premiere(?), After Effects)

4. Preferred laptop/screen size
I have no idea. Does screen size affect price alot? Ideally i am using this as a desktop replacement for at least 3 years, but i personally dont mind as i could plug it into another screen or even extend them.
14.1inch or 17inch maybe? Advice me on this.

Thanks in advance =3

Mainly for gaming but not heavy on graphics?
If you're mainly using it for gaming, I think i5 will be more than enough for you.

You can go for these:

Dell
Inspiron 15R (Special Edition), i7-3612QM + AMD HD7730M + (1920x1080; anti-glare) + 32GB SSD + 1TB HDD(5400rpm)@RM3199, 8GB,backlit keyboard optional

Asus
N55Sl-S2064v, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT635M + (1600x900)@RM2899[Bang & Olufsen], 4GB, 750GB(5400rpm)

Inspiron 15R SE is running on IB while the Asus N55SL is running on SB.

Or you can wait for the new Lenovo Y580. It has good specs as well.

Added on June 12, 2012, 2:06 pmScreen size doesn't affect the price alot. If you think the screen size is too small, you can always plug into another external monitor.
I will assume your usage is high on graphics. Since your budget is undecided (and capped at RM4k?) , I will only list those that are suitable for your usage.
You can go for these 15":

Asus
G55VW-S1095V, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GTX660M (2GB) + (1920x1080)@3999, 4GB, 1TB(5400rpm), W7HP

Dell
Inspiron 15R (Special Edition), i7-3612QM + AMD HD7730M + (1920x1080; anti-glare) + 32GB SSD + 1TB HDD(5400rpm)@RM3199, 8GB,backlit keyboard optional

Or you can wait for the new Lenovo Y580. It has great specs too.

Money is always and will be an object

hi, not sure is the correct place to ask but.. does dell 3 years complete cover really worth? or normal 3 years on-site warranty enough?

Can i have the specs for Y580? I like the sound of those two, are they running on IB?

Any 17 inch recommendations too?

Yes both are running on the new IB.
The specs for Y580 in Malaysia is still not confirmed yet. Though some maybe the same:

- 3rd generation Intel Core I7-3610QM Processor ( 2.30GHz 1333MHz 6MB)
- NVIDIA GeForce GTX660M 2GB
- 8.0GB PC3-12800 DDR3 SDRAM 1600 MHz

For most 17" laptops/desktop replacements are out of your budget and exceeds well over RM5k eg. Alienware, Sager.

Thank you, i think i'll take those

Asus
G55VW-S1095V, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GTX660M (2GB) + (1920x1080)@3999, 4GB, 1TB(5400rpm), W7HP

Dell
Inspiron 15R (Special Edition), i7-3612QM + AMD HD7730M + (1920x1080; anti-glare) + 32GB SSD + 1TB HDD(5400rpm)@RM3199, 8GB,backlit keyboard optional

you recommended instead of waiting...

I like in Klang and study at Kajang... where would be the easiest and trustworthy way to buy said laptop?

There are very less laptops with these processors. I myself haven't used or seen any people using it.

Perhaps you can try these?

HP
Pavilion G4-1302ax, AMD A8-3520M + AMD HD7450M@RM1899, 4GB, 640GB(5400rpm), W7HP

Toshiba
Satellite L740D-1218U, AMD A6-3420M + AMD HD6520G@RM1599, FreeDOS

These are 14" laptops.

Added on June 12, 2012, 4:10 pmAre you in a hurry of getting a laptop?
Both are hard to get as they have very limited stock.

For Dell you can order through their website and they have RM200 cash rebate iinm.
