Was wondering if there's any good laptop that is between 2-2.5 k and can be used to play decent games,not looking to play ultra quality..just good ones... Thanks

I think I'm interested in both HP and Dell..But can buy these models at shops right?

Guys,
Currently i am planning to purchase a laptop cost less than RM1.5k
which one of these two item is best?
or is there any better model compared to these two below?

ASUS A43SD Core I3-2350 2GB 500GB NVIDIA GT610 2GB 14" DOS

HP G4-1361TX, i3-2350M 2GB D3 RAM 500GB HDD ATI 7450M 1GB(DEDICATED) 14"LED LCD FREE DOS

May I know which one is better?

Acer V3-471G-53212G50k/g/s, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT630M@RM1999[2.3kg], 2GB, 500GB black,gold,silver, Olympic, 3 years warranty

Dell Inspiron 14R, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT630M@RM1999[2.38kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm)

Thx.

For me, Asus > Acer...

Hello guys,

1. Preferred Brand : Anything..
2. Budget: Below 2k
3. Usage: 60% streaming video & online tv / 20% games(the sim 3) / 20% work

Bigger screen will have heavier weight.

Can try these:

Dell
Inspiron 14R (Special Edition), i5-3210M + Nvidia GT640M(28nm Kepler)@RM2199[2.38kg], 4GB, 500GB(7200rpm); backlit keyboard optional

HP
[Ultrabook] Envy4-1043TX/1053TX, i5-3317U + AMD HD7670M + [32GB mSATA + 500GB(5400rpm)]@RM2599[Beats][1.75kg], 4GB, W7HP
Pavilion G4-2006/2007/2008TX, i5-3210M + AMD HD7670M@RM2199[2.19kg], 4GB, 750GB(5400rpm), W7HP

These are 14" laptops. For 13", it is more expensive and not suitable for gaming. Same goes with Sony Vaio series

Guys..any laptop that on par with Lenovo Y580 will release lately? Thinking to buy Y580, is it worth?

Depends on ur usage and budget lo...

usage: gaming + programming + ps
budget: max 3.5k

lo...^^

Hello
Where can I look for any upcoming laptops ?

Depend on ur preferences also for this 2 model. Both spec wise, more or less same.. GPU also not different much. same level.

What you really need to do now, go to shop give a hand-on on both model.

Hi guys currently using Compaq CQ40-126AU.

Brand: Any

Specs: Able to play dota1/2 highest settings. Going to be heavily editing photos (in the future) . All in the lines of editting. Normal usage.

Budget: Best price for value. Below 3k ? But can tolerate more. Looking for something future-proofing. Like my current lappie lasted me for 3 years 8 months already. Feel like time to change.

Looking for something with good durability too. Prefer to have things like warranty 5 years etc so i can always have a new one if something faulty happened to it.


Edit: I don't mind the weight. But of course, the lighter the better. Preferably having a bigger screen too. Maybe 15.6 inch minimum ?

Both model u choose come with GPU, mean u play games? U need to share what games u play...

Not much
Maybe fifa, pes, need for speed and little bit of autocad. Nvidia an Ati which one is better?

i3 i dont think enough power for the games u play, if can try to top-up a little bit more to get i5. From what i know is, ATi is better for graphic design and Nvidia is good for gaming. Correct me if im wrong, else need real expert to answer ur question...
