1. Preferred Brand : Asus, Lenovo, Acer, Dell, HP
2. Budget : 2.3k, off course as cheap as possible and willing to top up if really worth it
3. Usage : Surf internet, play offline FPS like crysis and online game
4. Preferred laptop/screen size : 14 and 15.6 inch
in my mind I can't decide this 2
Y400, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT750M@RM2499, 4GB, 500GB, FreeDOS, 120wPSU, swappable ODD, 2 years warranty
Ideapad Z580, i7-3612QM + Nvidia GT640M@RM2299, 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), freeDOS, white
does the processor and graphic card a lot difference ??
how about similar spec with similar price ? best is 15.6 inch >.<
yet I don't need the OS since I am studying IT, I can download windows 7 and 8 pro from msdn website, is legal with CD key

QUOTE(nexus2238 @ May 11 2013, 01:45 AM) Go with the Y400 for your budget. It's the best bang for buck at that price range. The GT750M at 1366x768 (HD) resolution mean you could play Crysis at high details. No 15" at your budget come close  but I prefer 15.6 inch LOL yet, does the processor and graphic card in Y400 and Z580 got huge difference ? |

QUOTE(nexus2238 @ May 12 2013, 01:54 PM) If 14" and 15" both at HD resolution (1366x768), the image is the same. Why waste money on a larger laptop?  The GT750M is ~ 20% better than the GT640M in the Z580. yes resolution is same but where got waste money on larger laptop ? is wasting money on smaller laptop  z580 is cheaper, y400 is more expensive than z580 than RM 200 Z580 : RM 2299, i7 no dos Y400 : RM 2499, better processor and GPU than z580, also no dos but screen is smaller @@ headache, hard to decide reason why I want 15.6 inch laptop is because it got keypad at right hand site easier for me to type number don't have other laptop around this spec and around 2.3-2.5k ? |

QUOTE(nexus2238 @ May 14 2013, 09:27 AM) Think about it The CPU and GPU in laptop are something that you could NOT upgrade. The dedicated keypad could be substituted by an off-the-shelf Logitech wireless numpad for ~ RM80. Where should you spend your money on?  To your last question, no  lol get numpad but the more I see Y400, the more I love  yet it got backlit keyboard right ? |
