Appreciate recommendation on new laptop:

Hi guys need some advice as last time i bought a laptop was 5 years ago

1. Prefered brand : Anything
2. Budget : RM2000 and below
3. Usage : Autocad , light gaming like COD
4. Prefered screen size : 13" to 15"
5. Battery life and light. maybe less than 2kg. as i travel alot.

The Inspiron 15R SE or the Asus N56Vz,

Can consider
13.3'':
Samsung NP535U3C-A01, A6-4455M + AMD HD7500G@RM1899, 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W7HP
14'':
Lenovo S400, i3-2365M + AMD HD7450M@RM1699[1.8kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W7HB

i just want some of your opinion~ seems i confused a little..

1. Preferred Brand: Asus or Lenovo, (cuz i heard Asus heatsink was good, although some claim it's still hotter while playing games..) <- tell me if i'm wrong..

2. Budget: i think of RM2000 and below. but max is RM2500

3. Usage: nowadays i use to browse internet a lot, and open bunch of pages, i was thinking to have FASTER laptop to do my assignment with ease. and of course, playing heavy games with medium setting.

4. Preferred Screen size: 14" or 15"

*i was hoping to find NVIDIA Graphic Card GDDR5. since i don't know whether the GT610/630/635/640 is GDDR5 or not. but still hoping to find one. 2GB Nvidia sounds good.. and i don't expect for latest laptop, but i don't want the sooo old ones also. if can put in SSD, that might be useful.

Well Y480 is suitable for u
Y480(5934-7549), i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT650M (GDDR5) @RM2599 [JBL], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, freeDOS, 2 yrs warranty, P950 headset
U can try find at Garage Sell for more cheaper price and add a licence to it or u wanna jack sparrow....
But if u wanna put SSD on it then is over ur budget jor

how about this --->> http://shop.lenovo.com/products/us/laptop/...0_Datasheet.pdf

just wondering the nvidia is GDDR3 or GDDR5..?

GT630M is DDR3 version bro
I suggest u get Y480....

too pricey when add SSD..~

i prefer specs like the link here > http://shop.lenovo.com/products/us/laptop/...0_Datasheet.pdf
i don see any garage sells with GT630.. all selling with GT610..

i thought 2GB GDDR3 can play skyrim, or i am alive, or mass effect 3 smoothly in medium setting i guess. GDDR5 maybe can set all to high setting, but as long i can play games smoothly, well, 2GB GDDR3 might be good i guess. (my friend got ati 5700 1gb <-(i guess) can play skyrim smoothly in high setting, not extreme.) i dont know.. maybe bcuz that's PC, not laptop, but i don't think 2GB GDDR3 could lose right..?

tell me if 2GB GDDR3 can smoothly play those heavy games i mention in medium or even low setting.. anyone that experienced it~
i'm sorry if i'm being rude~ so dilemma with these confusion.. plz guide me~

BTW gpu vram don't help too much to game....
But I think it can be play, as it based on GT540M/GT550M core

HD5770 comparable to GT650M.. GT630 is no where near it and GT610 is no where near GT630M.

The amount of VRAM mean nothing if the GPU can't utilize it. I'm using HD6770M with 1GB DDR5 but it perform significantly better than GT630M.
Read more online review rather than looking at the amount of VRAM.

Notebookcheck.net is a good place to start for comparing mobile gpus.

1. Preferred Brand -try to avoid asus if possible
2. Budget 1.5k, max 1.7k
3. Usage-autocad, programming, game in medium setting
4. Preferred laptop/screen-size 14

which means.. is this a good GPU for Mid-End Gaming?

Tq. will check the brand and compare.

Yes.. basically GT640M > HD7730M >= GT635M > HD7670M = GT630M.

Try out the Samsung Series 5 Ultra
Here's the specification http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/laptops/NP530U3B-A01US

Brand - any
Budget - bellow 3K
Preferred - looking for any laptop with FHD besides lenovo Y580

Yea the Samsung NP535U3C seems to fit your requirement
