1. Preferred Brand - None
2. Budget - under 2k
3. Usage - Normal use and a bit gaming and for autoCAD
4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 14" or above

hi guys, pls help me out a bit.

1. Preferred Brand - None
2. Budget - <RM1.5k
3. Usage - Normal use
4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 14"
5. and must have 5 years warranty (is this possible?)

Don't think most manufacturers will provide such long warranties
Most are 3 years only...
I don't think any laptop fit your requirements.. those with 3 years local limited warranty are either above your budget, or doesn't come with OS 

oh ok. demm..

thanks!

and another q.. do the i3 perfomance versus the dual core (B970, etc) is worth the price?

Hello sifus, need some suggestion in choosing laptop*asking for my friend*

1) ACER V3-571G-73614G1T or TOSHIBA Satellite M840-1009XG, which 1 better?

2) also nvidia GT640 or Radeon HD 7670M which 1 is good?

tq

you can check the comparison here

The llano-powered Asus would be better in terms of gaming performance if that's what you mean
Even though its a quad core, the CPU performance is not exactly very good, but you could always overclock though 

Why not?
There are many sources from the internet:

I am planning to buy a new laptop; Asus brand prefer, soon. My budget is Rm1500. So, with Rm1500, what's kind of "ultimate" laptop I can get?

It is not for gaming. The usage is more towards internet surfing, watching drama online, downloading and doing paper works. Any suggestion and recommendation?

Most likely I will try to get it at Lowyat Plaza there.

Anyone can tell me which of these suit me light gaming like dota 2, hd movies, surf nets etc.

1. Preferred Brand - None
2. Budget - Around 1.3-1.4k
3. Usage - Normal use and some gaming like dota 2.
4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 14" or above

Currently eyeing on these model. Which has the best performance?
A43TK-VX024 A6-3420 2GB 500GB ATI 7670 14" DOS or
A43SD-VX065 B960 2GB 500GB NVIDIA GT610 2GB 14" DOS or
I3-2350 2GB 500GB NVIDIA GT610 2GB 14" DOS

If not mistaken the A6 is quad core and can run turbo. Will it be any better than the other 2?

Usually Intel processors are better in terms of CPU performance, but their intergrated GPUs lose out to AMD llano's, which are basically on par with mainstream GPUs

I am currently using Asus U41JF which is a very good laptop...almost 2 years in my possession. Been performing flawlessly.

ANd now looking for an upgrade especially the screen size & quality. Larger HDD  >>> SSD.
Thanks for any advice!

1. Preferred Brand
None at this moment

2. Budget
2-3k...

3. Usage
work stuff

4. Preferred laptop/screen size
13.3-14"

well these few days i have been searching hi and low for the "One"

I am incline towards ultrabook, because it is touted to be near my current lappie, or nappie to be precise
my current is EEEPC 901 with 60GB SSD (30x2) and a 12 Cell battery and weighed 1.3kg with the batt
Technically this is enough but the issue is the netbook is my own, and I am thinking of milking the company i work for >10 years, for a new one

my current one could stand up to 8hrs of light workload and is SSD (I prefer this because I am quite rough with my stuff)
and the whole unit is light

So the ultrabook seems to fit me my need
my eyes have just and Hour ago set on Toshiba Portege Z830, cause The lightness and the long batt life fits me perfectly. The less than stellar SSD is not a problem, ans I have grown use to my sloowowowow eeePC one.

The these following issue comes up
- Pricey, 3.5k average (could be less of a problem, company money)
- US microcenter have ~2.6k for the i3 version but this is without Turboboost(not that buying from US is viable)
- Asian version dont have backlit keyboard, not important but felt shortchanged since the price here is not cheaper in anyway
- SSD less than stellar, at the end of the day, a top of the line premium product with crappy drive? where the logic in that?!!
Oh by the way
from all the net picture, I prefer the looks of Z830, with the thin display/overall and squarish profile. Not that into the Dell rounded corners ones, which look less profesional. But still...eh
the newer Z930 is no better, treating malaysian customer as 2nd class buyer

any suggestion?

I am actually good with Dell design of the Latitude E6400 period
Is seems simple and professional enough for me.
the latest series seems like young 'uns design with the silver accentuation totally wrong for my taste

ultrabooks that i know of
- Asus UX31 - seems popular, also seems like alot of ppl is selling them off, plus the net review of the touch pad is horrendous couple with actually tested asus n45s touch pad, seems both is inferior to my eeepc one
- Lenovo U310?? - not really research on this
- Acer S3/S5 - actually started with this before the toshiba, but the batt life is a let down, along with 32+500 hdd hybrid combo
- HP envy - not researched closely
- HP folio - long batt life, but design bordering on no-compact ultrabook
- Samsung series - Too pricey for the SSD one, lower one lack them
- Dell - recent design does not gell with me
- Fujitsu 722?772? - Nice looking but for sure price high

Thanks for you guys fast responds. 

I would like to get some recommend from here,
Budget around 2K
14" screen size
any reliable brand is ok
A college engineering student who didnt play very high graphic game
*ASUS A43SD already in list, I hope for another recommend, Thanks!

First thing's first, where will you be buying your laptop?
From Malaysia right?
There are only a handful of ultrabooks to choose from at the moment, so choosing one won't be hard~

Can consider these (assuming you only want SSD versions only):
13"
HP [Ultrabook] Pavilion dm3-1001TU (Folio 13), i5-2467M + Intel HD3000 + 128GB SSD@RM2999[1.49kg], W7HP

14"
Toshiba [Ultrabook] Satellite U840-1003U, i5-2467M + Intel HD3000M + 128GB SSD@RM3199[1.7kg], 4GB, backlit keyboard, color: silver

Intel HD3000 is not really capable of gaming now that Intel HD4000 is available... and the GT525M is considered as outdated too..

Apart from the ones with GT630m, can consider this one as well:
HP Pavilion G4-2026TX/2027TX, i3-2350M + AMD HD7670M@RM1999, 4GB, 640GB(5400rpm), W7HP; colors: black/red

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.
