Hi all, I am looking replacement for my 3 yrs old dell. Still good but power system problem (reject 3rd party charger + battery). Budget <3k. Usage: Photo editing & maybe gaming. Other needs: Offer 2-3 yrs warranty more better, good monitor (righ resolution), intel i5, easy to get replacemnt battery & charger. Preferebly not dell or acer.
I am looking at asus n55sl @rm2699. -isit a good deal? -is there any similar spec and price but better monitor worth considering? -is any new upcoming model worth waiting?
thanks in advance.

QUOTE(PhungTM @ Jun 13 2012, 10:11 AM) Its around mid June according to the news. Y580, i7-3610QM + GTX660M (2GB)@RM3399, 8GB, 1TB HDD(7200rpm), W7HP This is taken from The Star newspaper. Added on June 13, 2012, 10:20 amRight now most i5 are still running on SB. Only i7 is running on IB. Asus N55SL is a good deal. It comes with its own speakers and a 15" HD screen. Since most new models are running on i7, there's not much choices. Thanks for the feedback, but may i know what is SB and IB? and what different it makes. Thx.

QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Jun 13 2012, 09:11 PM) The biggest problem with the current N56vm is the rather weak specifications you are getting for the price. At Rm3.6k, even the GPU in the previous N55@RM2.8k is better than the GPU in the N56... Not to mention the previous N55 has a higher resolution screen as well  Not necessarily hold for the N56 with i5, but to wait for more laptops to come out that might appeal to you  Thanks for the extra info!
