Hello, I'm looking to buy a new laptop soon. Probably next week. it's for work purposes.
1. Preferred Brand - Any
2. Budget - RM 2500 - 3000.
3. Usage - Work. Will do a lot of CAE/CAD, simulations & iterations.
4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 17-19"
Note: Windows 7 only please.
Any offers and packages will do. The last time I bought a laptop is 6 years ago. Now don't know what's the standard for a 3k laptop.
Thanks!

There is only one option for such a large desktop replacement under RM3k 
17.3"
Lenovo Ideapad G780, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT630M + (1600x900)@RM2399[3.0kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm); W7HP/750GB@RM2499
You can use the remaining money to extend warranty to 3 years, and upgrade the RAM to 8GB.
But if you are willing to go for a 15.6" notebook, you'll be able to get so much more:
15.6"
Lenovo Ideapad Y580, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GTX660M + 1920x1080 @RM2999[JBL], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W7HB/W8, backlit keyboard, 2 yrs warranty
Another 17" laptop that is below RM3k is MSI CX70, but not very popular. It is somehow target to gamers but the spec is not powerful enough for gaming, but should be good for your requirement. Main advantage over G780 is the matte screen in CX70.17.3"
