if i am using it for light programming eg. college programming assignment, do you think i might experience the lag?

apple sure smooth 1.. no worry

haha help me recommend one more laptop not with SSD. at least I have more options to choose. Thanks so much.

y u dun wan SSD?

I know it is faster but still it costs more. I am still trying to look around for more laptops before deciding Currently i am using Asus 1215P which is actually not sufficient for me and my course.

Thanks for those suggestions. I'm still doing a hollistic consideration lol...

but that thread also got people bash me say I am spamming
what the point of spamming in forum =.=
the post count nothing at all
and why respect me ??

agree with you. post counts doesnt really matters actually. if lets say i get paid for the post counts, then i would be start making money by posting in the forums.

you are elder than me and more experienced, so should deserve the respect.

Illegear RE-15 will be better. performance wise, the GT750M SLI is about 20% better than GTX765M but power drainage in Y510P will be faster compared to RE-15.

Any ideal when will laptop equiped with Haswell chipset launch in malaysia?

They will come in stages.. there are already some in the market already yo

i got bashed before when i was in hardware section.
that was 1.5 years ago and now, people forgot about anything.

So far i saw at market is i7. Any model for i5 4th generation laptop?

Hey guys, need some recommendation for a laptop for my dad. His current one was 5-6 years old and the motherboard 'kong' already, well according to some computer shop worker.

1. Preferred Brand : ASUS/Dell

2. Budget : ~MYR1k (not really sure if this price range is possible, sorry for the stupidity tho, am looong gone from the laptop playground )

3. Usage : Light document editing and music, maybe some movies occasionally. HDMI port is a must. (Does integrated Intel graphics sufficient for movie playbacks? no editing just sometimes my dad wanna kick back and enjoy some movies via HDMI to my house's home theater system.)

4. Preferred laptop/screen size : Anything between 14" to 15.6". (His current one is 15.6", might get him to suit better around the same size range.)

Nothing from Asus or Dell at that price range
You are asking a lot for the budget unfortunately..

Closest:
15.6"
Lenovo Ideapad G580, B950 + Nvidia GT610M@RM1199, 2GB, 320GB, freeDOS, 1 yr warranty

Or you can go and find some older Inspiron 15. I remembered a few months ago there are variants sold at Rm1k

Unfortunately high performance notebooks don't come in slim and light packages, you might have to compromise abit since your requirements are abit contradictory.
A business-line notebook perhaps?
14"
Lenovo ThinkPad T430U, i5-3317U + Intel HD4000 + 24GB mSATA + 500GB HDD@RM3799, 4GB, W7P, 3 years on-site warranty *there might be newer, W8 variants already

Or a Dell?
13"
[Ultrabook] XPS13, i5-3337U + Intel HD4000 + 128GB SSD@RM3399[1.36kg], 4GB, W8, backlit *use remaining budget to extend warranty to 3 years and also purchase a VGA adapter

If you are looking for a performance machine which is not too heavy and with a decent HD+ screen but with 2 years only:
14"
MSI GE40-2OC, i7-4702MQ + Nvidia GTX760M + (1600x900; anti-glare)@RM3999[1.8kg], 8GB, 750GB(7200rpm), W8

Or perhaps a 11" performance machine if you don't mind the smaller size.
11.6"
Illegear R-11, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT650M@RM2999, 8GB, 500(5400rpm), FreeDOS [CPU options: i5-3210M-i7-3630QM] *use remaining budget to extend warranty and upgrade to SSD

Thanks for the tips!
