QUOTE(badboy_lun @ Jul 12 2012, 11:34 AM) If the brand is ASUS for budget 2K, you recommend the A43SD only? For Asus 14" laptop with budget 2k, there are only:A43Sd- VX419V/420V/421V/422V, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT610M@RM1899[2.4kg], W7HP, 2GB, 500GB(5400rpm), colors: black/blue/red/white A43Sm-VX102v, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT630M@RM2099[2.4kg], 2GB, 500GB (5400rpm) A43Sd has a weaker GPU, A43Sm has a better one. It will be more suitable for engineering softwares. |

QUOTE(limrenwei @ Jul 14 2012, 02:55 PM) 1. Preferred Brand:any Your usage is a little general. Are you gaming with heavy graphics like BF3, Max Payne, etc.? 2. Budget:less then 3k 3. Usage:general, gaming, plan to use for 4 years 4. Preferred laptop/screen :any 5: interested in: HP Pavilion dm4-3105tx Entertainment Beats Edition Notebook PC, HP ENVY Ultrabook 4-1053tx,Inspiron 14z Ultrabook i7 rm2899, Inspiron 14R SE rm 2.5 k with tmnet discount.  The GPU of HP Pavilion Dm4-3105TX and Inspiron 14z is a little weak for gaming. In GPU terms or performance for gaming, Inspiron 14R SE> HP Envy 4> HP Pavilion Dm4 = Inspiron 14z If you're using for gaming, then its better to not get an ultrabook as it is not meant for that kind of usage. A laptop with a good GPU will be better. If its only for general usage, non-heavy graphics gaming then you can opt for ultrabook for its portability. For alternatives of gaming laptop, you can try these: Acer [Ultrabook] M5-481TG-53316G12, i5-3317U + Nvidia GT640M LE (28nm Kepler) + 128GB SSD@RM2899[1.85kg], 6GB, W7HP Lenovo (Best GPU among) Y480, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650(GDDR5)@RM2499[JBL], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, FreeDOS Y480, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650(GDDR5)@RM2799[JBL], 8GB, 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, W7HP, 2 years international warranty These have good GPU suitable for heavy gaming like the Inspiron 14R SE you have mentioned  |

QUOTE(funkydude @ Jul 16 2012, 06:33 PM) 1. Preferred Brand - Lenovo, Asus (No Acer) Both are suitable for you. It depends on which screen you prefer, larger or smaller 2. Budget - RM2.5K~ 3. Usage - Gaming (Medium+ setting in BF3), C++ programming, Photoshop, video editing 4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 14"+ 5. Note - Weight is no problem for me. FHD is a plus only not really critical for me. Ok, since I already done my own research. I found out that this Y480, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650(GDDR5)@RM2499[JBL], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, FreeDOS is probably the best choice for me, right? But there is a question to whether should I put some more money for this Ideapad Y580, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GTX660M (2GB) + Bluray@RM3399[JBL], 8GB, 1TB HDD(5400rpm), W7HP, 2 years international warranty is it worth the money? There is no problem for me cough up a bit more money for the Y580 if only it is really worth the upgrade. If not, I think I will stick with the Y480. Unless there are better choice for me to pick beside from these. Any recommendation if highly appreciated  As for the price, last I heard the Y580 had dropped to less than 3k You should check it out |

QUOTE(NeoOdyssey @ Jul 26 2012, 06:35 PM) Brand: None If you're okay with 15", then go for the N56VZ between the two. It's more worth it.Budget: less than 3K Usage: Nothing in particular, everyday work/gaming? Preferred screen: 14"~15.6" Actually i was aiming for either the A45VM-VX029V or N56VZ-S3088V but their chipset info i found on the net is very very confusing or rather different from site to site, so i was wondering if someone can help me with this... What do you mean by chipset info?

QUOTE(ic3rock @ Jul 27 2012, 12:58 PM) What is EOL-ed iinm? Wonder why v3 with 3rd gen i7 + better GPU will cheaper than (2)? EOL means End of Line/Life. It is not in production anymore. iinm means If I'm Not Mistaken.New laptops tend to have attractive prices compared to older ones. That's why it is better to get the newer one |

QUOTE(Lance XIII @ Jul 27 2012, 10:12 PM) Haha so any recommendation ? Well, I could... but the list would be too long for any brand of any screen size without any usage Perhaps you can add in some usage? Maybe gaming? Movies/music? It could narrow down the field |
