Hi, thanks for the help!

Reason being that her brother are casual gamer that plays a game or two.
I'm using a laptop with ancient 9600M GT and the HD4000 is roughly at the same level as it so I use it as the gauge.

i suppose u mean GMA 4500MHD...

it's very different from HD3000/4000 in the market now...

Nah I know what is GMA4500

I'm referring to the Ivy Bridge HD4000.

Anyway anyone knows where can I get the Acer V5? Looks good to me. Its not listed in any of the shop brochure.

i suggest Asus. aftersale service is one of the best.

I tought ASUS aftersale is otherwise... even got a thread in here...

Try PM Beouwulf

Asus is one of the worst yo bro

really? maybe its just my experience.

but their product..

yes their product is good... I would still prefer DELL although the design :facepalm: now currently trying my luck with lenovo

Yeah, I really liked their products haha, bought quite a few items from Asus

hey guys what strongest n longest brand lptop?i mean..lap top rank?

Hi sifus,
I have doubt over 2 of Dell's models:
1. Dell Vostro 2420, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT620M@RM1999[2.38kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm)
2. Dell Inspiron 14R, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT630M@RM1999[2.38kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm)
Both are having more or less the same spec and at the same price. So, which one would be a better buy (comparing on hardware, durability, build, screen quality, heat...)? Mostly for play multimedia, surfing, light games...

TIA.

well, i suppose a quick Google search will say Apple, but personally i would say Lenovo ThinkPad or Dell Latitude...

at the end of the day, it's still largely dependent on the user...

Vostro is a business grade laptop, so it should have slightly better build material (i said slightly since Vostro is only a budget line of Dell business laptops... there's Latitude family on top of it)... and u get business grade warranty service as well...

So these are the laptops that are recomended to me with a budget of 4-5k

14" Dell Alienware M14x R2, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT650M (1GB) + (1600x900)@RM4499[Klipsch], 8GB, 1TB(5400rpm); [CPU Options: i7-3610QM -i7-3820QM]

Lenovo Y480 (5934-1161), i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650(GDDR5)@RM2499[JBL], 4GB(1600mhz), 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, FreeDOS, 2 years international warranty Y480(5934-1372), i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650(GDDR5)@RM2699[JBL], 4GB(1600mhz), 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, W7HB, 2 years international warranty

15.6" Asus G55VW-S1095V, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GTX660M (2GB) + (1920x1080)@3999, 4GB, 1TB(5400rpm), W7HP Lenovo Ideapad Y580, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GTX660M (2GB) + (1920x1080) + Bluray@RM3599[JBL], 8GB, 1TB HDD(5400rpm), W7HP, backlit keyboard, 2 years international warranty MSI GE60, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GTX660M + (1920x1080; anti-glare) + Bluray@RM4199, 8GB, 1TB(7200rpm), W7HP, 2 years warranty, gaming mouse & backpack, Free SteelSeries QCK Mass mousepad

So i was wondering, for gaming, i know that i would need a pretty high end lappy to run those games; how much at least for a laptop that can do that and that doesnt lagg, because I for one, hate those internal laggs you get, especially when im doing my assignments. Are these laptops suffiecent enough to do all those?

Thanks in advance

1. Preferred Brand dell, asus, toshiba / any other except acer
2. Budget RM1700
3. Usage online surfing, fb/ youtube, n light gaming(girl use)
4. Preferred laptop/screen size 15inch only

i don mind it don hav os, i can install my own, ram i can upgrade, internal gpu also can, cos no gaming..

the intel i5 ivy bridge should have build in gpu which delivery better graphics then the old type, so light gaming should be able, correct?

15" with such budget cant have much choices...

Asus (2 years free international warranty)
A53SD-SX1263/2369/1270, i3-2370M + Nvidia GT610M@RM1599, 2GB, 500GB, FreeDOS; colors: black/blue/red
A53TK-SX131V, A6-3420M + AMD HD7670M@RM1699, 2GB, 500GB, W7HP

Dell
Inspiron 15 (N5050), i3-2350M + Intel HD3000@RM1749, 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W7HB

Get the Asus, Lenovo or MSI Then upgrade the HDD to SSD
If you prefer stock laptpos, then the MSI would be better because of the faster HDD rotation speed which will give you an overall faster experience (shorter program load times). But of course the best is to have a SSD.
The M14x is no match for this monsters
