Acer V3-571G-736b8G1T, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT730M(DDR3) + (1920x1080 IPS) @RM2899[2.6kg], 8GB, 1TB, W8
Dell Inspiron 15R, i7-3537U + AMD HD8730M + (1920x1980; anti-glare)@RM3299[2.32kg], 8GB, 1TB(5400rpm), W8SL

best choice is the acer v3. you get full HD IPS screen and a decent graphics card.

4. Preferred laptop/screen size : 14-16 inch
5. Nice graphic prefrerred, Full HD perhaps.

Did some research, noted about Lenovo Y500, any other model to recommend? AcerV3? But not sure whether it can perform as well as Y500 .. @@. Thanks.

the acer cant perform as well as Y500 but the screen is definitely, no other laptops except hybrids can compete with. the acer v3 uses IPS display, means you have better view angles, sharper colours and vibrance. it is a good deal if you want to watch movies on it. also, the GT730M is about on par with GT650M. since you are into MMORPG only, you dont need an extreme graphics card.

Hi, after doing some research, come with these few models.

Dell 14R, HP Envy 4-1035tx, Lenovo G480, Lenovo S400 and Lenovo Z480.

Any opinion? Thx:)

if you want good warranty support, go for dell inspiron 14r.
if you want better performance overall laptop, go for HP Envy 4.
if you want best bang of buck and performance, definitely go for lenovo z480.

hi bro,

the lenovo ideapad seems to have the better spec, i5 and a better Graphic card compare to the other 2 right?

if my budget is 1.8k do u suggest this model?
*
i dont think the lenovo is a good deal. it has 2GB RAM, freeDOS which means it comes without windows installed. so IMO, dell will be better.

no. touch screen is not compulsory and it is a marketing gimmick. so it is better to stick with the current display.

Brand - i prefer other brands than acer, dell, and asus.
Budget - around 3k
Usage - used for working as programmer, and able to play some of the online games that require some graphics (Guild Wars 2, Dota 2, Dragon Nest) at least with 30fps and above...
Screen size - prefer 15 inch.

i have an extra SSD that is unused. is there any laptop with the requirement above will have additional slot for SSD ? or is there a way to mount the SSD in a normal laptop without much screwing and sorts?

Dell Inspiron 15R, i7-3537U + AMD HD8730M@RM2949[2.32kg], 6GB, 1TB(5400rpm), W8SL
ASUS N56VZ-S3151H, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT650M@RM2799[2.7kg][B&O], 4GB, 750GB, W8; color: black

best choice is Acer V3. it comes with full HD IPS display and a decent graphics card which is enough for your MMORPG games. by the way for SSD question, you have to choose 17" laptops or sacrifice your current HDD and replace it with your SSD unless there is a caddy drive for those laptops.

hmm.. any other brands other than dell, asus or acer with the requirements i mentioned?
and if i choose 17" laptops i can install my ssd in it?

the caddy drives have to install/buy externally?

acer is the best choice. you probably need the full HD IPS display.
if you choose 17" laptops, then you can install your SSD into it.

for the caddy drives, they are sold externally.

then the dell will be a better choice since it is lighter. i am sure you love the power of full hd screen. or go with this if you love sharper colours and vibrant :

Acer V3-571G-736b8G1T, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT730M(DDR3) + (1920x1080 IPS) @RM2899[2.6kg], 8GB, 1TB, W8

it seems the acer is quite bulky but as long you can bear the weight. biggrin.gif
