Preferred Brand: Lenovo seems good? Or is there any other better one?
Budget: RM3000 MAX (not going to top up anymore)
Usage: 3D rendering, animation and heavy graphic works
Preferred laptop/screen size: 14.0,15,15.6 ...
Prefer Nvidia graphic card.. heard that Nvidia card is better for graphic works, is this true?
If possible, light-weight.. not too heavy can dy.. notworthy.gif
and another thing I'm worrying is overheat problem, cuz usually I'll be using the laptop for hours continuously..

for my usage most ppl will recomend pc but im not looking into PC for now cuz PC is not mobile smile.gif

Lenovo Y400, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT750M@RM2799, 4GB, 500GB, W8, 120wPSU, swappable ODD, 2 years warranty
ASUS [Ultrabook]S46CM-WX023V, i5-3317U + Nvidia GT635M + 24GB mSATA + 500GB HDD@RM2399[2kg], 4GB, W7HP
Lenovo Z400, i5-3230M + Nvidia GT740M@RM2099, 4GB, 1TB, W8; 2 years warranty; colors: chocolate

Acer V3-571G-736b8G1T, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT730M(DDR3) + (1920x1080 IPS) @RM2899[2.6kg], 8GB, 1TB, W8
ASUS A55VJ-SX093H, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT635M@RM2499[2.52kg], 4GB, 750GB, W8; color: black

true that nvidia graphics cards are good for graphical works. for light weight options, you can take a look at lenovo z400 as the weight for this laptop is around 2kg only. if you worry about overheating, then you can get core i5 option. core i7 will idle at 55-60C which is quite hot. prices are RSP and negotiable. smile.gif

Thanks for the suggestion +1
I think I'll go for lenovo Y400.. backlit keyboard seems tempting, if Z400 has i7 option I'll consider. laugh.gif
if I go for i5.. I think there'll be different in performance (rendering works?)..
and i7 temperature wll reach 55C even idle state?? wtf??????? shakehead.gif shakehead.gif shocking.gif that means I must get a laptop cooler fan.. -.-
if i7 does a better job than i5 then I'll definitely choose i7 since I've the budget.. >< but overheat... sighhhhhhh sounds scary... rclxub.gif
