Erm, I can't find this for RM3000. Most sites I find is RM3800+, nearly RM4000. Anyone knows where I can get this at RM3000, cause my budget is really just that, and nothing more smile.gif

Hi, thanks for your advice from a view page back... I just wented to lowyat plaza today and browse through some notebooks, and I would like to get help from here first before I choose to buy the notebooks..

1 that really attract me is a laptop offer from a "brightstar distributor" in lowyat (not sure of the fact) they offer me a laptop called lenovo Z485, this laptop quite strike me because it has 2 AMD graphic cards (?) AMD Radeon HD 7450M, 500GB, 10GB RAM, AMD A8-4500M (1.90 GHz, 4 MB L2 Cache, up to 2.80 GHz) << they say this is AMD quad core (i am unsure since i am not well versed in computers), it is 14" laptop with windows 8.... and to top it off, they have a bundle package inclusive of a bagpack, wireless microsoft mouse, and a screen protector, also 1 year international warranty....

now i've been trying to find some reviews on the net about this, i couldnt find any, all i got was it was sold in Thailand and it has been discontinued(?)... the price is just below RM2,5k (give me dealer price they say biggrin.gif )...

so, any sifus out there can help me verified whether this 1 is worth to get? since the specs sounds quite good for that price tag... smile.gif

Also, another laptop is the Lenovo Y580, with these specs:
-Inter Core i7-3630QM
-Win 7, 64 bit
-8GB RAM
-500GB SATA HDD
-NVIDIA GeForce GTX660M
at a price tag of RM2,950
sorry for the long post, but can help me? thanks in advance!

No.
Don't get GT640, its weaker.
Get the GT650M model.
and check the CPU is Core i7-3630QM, not i7-3610QM.

or you could wait for Lenovo Y400, if you like black/red theme colour tongue.gif

Y400 will be over 3k tongue.gif

Hi,
  I need to get a laptop mainly for stock market trading. I will need to open up at least 5 windows displaying real time share price simultaneously. Therefore, I expect this laptop to be able to do multi-tasking efficiently.

My main requirement:
1. Speed, speed, speed - launching program, switch between windows.
2. 15" screen - normal display quality will do.
3. Budget - 3K.
