Can anyone give me a good recommendation on a new laptop?

I am looking for a good laptop to conduct good usage on Autocad 2012. I want a good HD screen with good specs that can run any 3D programmes smoothly as well.

I was actually looking on Dell XPS but this model only comes in 14 inches (which I think is a little too small). 15 inch is the best size for me.

What laptop is recommended here?


SUMMARY:

1. Preferred brand: any will do. (Do not want much heat exposed)
2. Budget: -
3. Usage: No gaming. Pure Autocad Works with other engineering programmes
4. Preferred laptop screen size: 15"

Additional preferences:
a. HD Screen
b. the audio performance must not be weak
c. must have USB 3.0 port.
d. Good after-sales service
e. Good battery life

1. Preferred Brand: any will do.
2. Budget: RM 3500 max (top up a lil more would be considered)
3. Usage: multitasking, movies, facebook, songs, some light photo editing
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 13"
5. Preferred processor: Intel Core i5 standard voltage(i7 if possible with my budget)

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a laptop, for girl use. Would prefer it to look sleek and light, but would not want a ultrabook processor if possible.
Looking for something like ASUS U36SG. Are there any successors to this model? Seems like it is stuck at the 2nd gen Core processors.

I have taken interest in ASUS Zenbook, but still seeking advice from sifus here for more options as I would prefer standard voltage CPU.
Thanks in advance!!

Hi Guys,
Need a new laptop

1. Preferred Brand - Value for money

2. Budget - 3k - maybe can add abit more

3. Usage - Office software, Gaming, abit of Photo-editing & designing, Portability and battery life would be preferred.

4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 13"-14"

Having said the above, I believe Sony Vaio S series (can on the fly swap graphics card to save batt life right?) seems suitable for me. Suits my budget, small, light and portable. Is the performance able to play games like battlefield 3 level? This is the model I am looking at: SVS13116FG

On the flip side I am also looking at the Y580 but its bigger & heavier no?
I do move around alot..

And on top of that, I read that its best to wait for end of this month to see new laptops coming out/price drops for current laptops.

Things to look out for is the Y500? What about sony's new update to the current SVS13116FG I am looking at?

So what should I do? I guess I can wait till end of this month. Roughly when we will know?

Can consider these:
14"
Dell Inspiron 14, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT620M@RM1599[2.1kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), Ubuntu Linux 11.10; W7HB@RM1799
Lenovo G480, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT630M@RM1799, 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), FreeDOS, *no USB3.0

Try to upgrade the RAM to 8GB or more in the future for better photoshop performance

Buy when you need, wait if you can

Any news for upcoming update to something around price range, weight and spec of SVS13116FG? Thanks!
