Hi guys. My Aspire was dead after 4 years, looking for a new laptop.

Prefer brand : None
Usage : Gaming ( NFS, DotA, DotA 2, online games ), MS Word, Presentation,
Photoshop, surfing, watching movies and listening music.
Budget : 2k to 3k
Screen size : 14" or 15"

I am currently eyeing on Lenovo Y480, but I heard about the heating issues, is this true? And if I want to buy it in Penang where can I buy it.

Thanks.

All gaming laptops will get hot to an extent when on load, so n worries there nod.gif
Perhaps you can deal with "hikari85" in Garage Sales, she's based in Penang

I prefer buying at shop, because easier for repairing. Can get Lenovo Y480 with GT650M or GTX660M for 2.5k?
If I upgrade to 8GB ram + blu ray DVD then will it cost more than 3k?

Start from here bro, should be quite straightforward nod.gif http://windows.microsoft.com/is-IS/Windows...USB-flash-drive

After you're done installing Windows, proceed to installing/ updating drivers for your laptop nod.gif

Will the Lenovo warranty be responsible for it when anything happens during the installation of windows?
