I got my mind set on the HP dv6-6c19tx. However, I'm open to suggestions.
From what I've (feverishly) gathered, laptop manufacturers are going to introduce a new generation of laptops (Ivy Bridge, latest GPUs, etc.) next month (May). Should I wait for a month so that my RM3099 can be spent on a better laptop (any brand. I'm not loyal to HP tongue.gif) [or, so that the dv6-6c19tx's price will drop]?

Thanks in advance for your advice and recommendations.

1. Preferred Brand: Any
2. Budget: RM30xx
3. Usage: As long as the laptop doesn't struggle to run WoW and Diablo III on "very high" settings.
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 15"

QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Jun 8 2012, 02:08 PM)
If you want performance:
Dell Inspiron 14R (Special Edition), i7-3612QM + Nvidia GT640M(28nm Kepler)@RM2999[2.38kg], 8GB, 1TB(5400rpm); backlit keyboard optional

*use remaining money to upgrade to 3 years warranty...

If you'd prefer lighter laptops, at the expense of performance, then can try to find
Acer [Ultrabook] M5-481TG-53316G12, i5-3317U + Nvidia GT640M LE (28nm Kepler) + 128GB SSD@RM2899, 6GB, W7HP
Acer's timelinex 4830Tg
Asus U46Sv

The last two are relatively older (running on SB)...

Thanks for your suggestions. Performance doesn't really matter to me, as long as can run Blizzard games. Weight, on the other hand, determines my mood after a tiring day at work. laugh.gif
