QUOTE(tipaklong2 @ Jul 12 2012, 09:36 PM) I see. i think the difference is almost unnoticeable. given the budget, i would say, yes. I searched and found that the Y580's resolution is 1366 x 768. With this resolution, would there be a difference between watching a 720p movie from a 1080p one? But my priority is gaming (under ~RM3500), and the y580 gives the best bang for buck, correct? Thanks for all the help!  QUOTE(xienxienzai @ Jul 12 2012, 10:00 PM) Hi,I plan to get a gaming laptop.Price below Rm4k.screen inch 15++..screen with FHD.Any suggestion?

QUOTE(tipaklong2 @ Jul 14 2012, 12:30 PM) Does that mean that watching a 1080p movie would be almost similar in an 1366 x 768 screen compared to an 1920 x 1080 screen? Thanks! what i mean is of course you can't really differentiate the details, given a low quality video, it will be kind of pixelated on fullhd screen, but for a 1080p, it will be just fine. well i do believe a high reso needs to be accompanied with larger screen too for maximum enjoymentQUOTE(Armesh @ Jul 14 2012, 01:19 PM) Hello, my friend wants to buy a laptop and his budget is RM3K. Can be any brand (decent one), he will use it for multi purpose like surf web, watch movie, ms office, and gaming also. He is getting a laptop cause he have to move around, engineering college student. So for 3K, can you recommend a laptop with a good price/performance ratio? He suggested http://www.acer.com.my/ac/en/MY/content/model/NX.RZNSM.001 Y480, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650(GDDR5)@RM2499[JBL], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, FreeDOSbut I feel it's overpriced. And free dos is preferred. |

QUOTE(fiqz4ce @ Jul 15 2012, 10:44 PM) budget: rm2500 - 2700.. one is 14", the other one is 15". it really depends on you, spec wise, they're almost identical. try to get your hand on the real model, see which one do you like. since you love the backlit keyboard, i guess there's no point on buying something that you don't prefer. in the end you're the end who's going to use the laptop.brand: asus or lenovo or dell specs: i7 (preferred) and backlit keyboard (love it) going to get the laptop by next week.. i've followed this thread for many weeks and I know the laptop that suit with my budget.. but within this two.. lenovo y480 (i7) and n56 (i5), which is more worth? sorry if im in a wrong thread but i think the sifus here know well about laptops i'd love if the laptop got backlit keyboard because its awesome.. so recommend me please i don't think you can go wrong with y480. it is quite recommended here. |
