1. Preferred Brand - Dell due to after sales, considering other brands
2. Budget - RM3000 to RM4500 3. Usage - Multimedia editing (Photoshop, Lightroom, Premiere) 4. Preferred laptop/screen size - High resolution display for more working space, eg. 1920x1080 Side note: Other than MacBook Pro, does any of the company offer a IPS screen? |

QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Jan 25 2013, 08:42 PM) There are some notebooks that come with IPS screens, but unfortunately most of them are not really meant for photo editing I was looking around and seems like the Lenovo Y500 is a nice alternative to both Dell above? And I noticed those Vostro cannot purchase directly from Dell's website?  For Dell, can consider the Inspiron 15R SE  15.6" Dell Inspiron 15R (Special Edition), i7-3612QM + AMD HD7730M + (1920x1080; anti-glare) + 32GB SSD + 1TB HDD(5400rpm)@RM3199, 8GB,backlit keyboard optional, W7HP/W8 or Dell Vostro 3560, i7-3632QM + AMD HD7670M + 32GB SSD + 750GB(7200rpm) HDD + (1920x1080)@RM3209[2.57kg], 8GB, W7HB; colors: red/silver/bronze *Vostro is budget-business line model, and comes entirely in matte, pretty useful if don't like fingerprints on the chassis  *use remaining money to extend warranty to 3 years on-site. And also upgrade the HDD to a full SSD (256GB should be enough). Having a fast SSD will help improve Photoshop loadtimes significantly  *8GB RAM is more than enough, so noneed to upgrade anymore, save the money for something else   QUOTE(nexus2238 @ Jan 25 2013, 10:06 PM) Yes, plenty Thanks! Was looking at the price for Dell Precision, seems like Dell website don't sell them directly to end users? For example: Asus Zenbook Prime, Envy Spectre XT 13, Envy Spectre 14, Dell Precision, HP Elitebook ... |
