Preferred Brand : Any Brand Would Do 2. Budget : Below 2k 3. Usage : MS Office, Watch Video, Mild Video/Audio Converting, Mild Gaming(DMC5, L4D2) 4. Preferred laptop/screen size : Actually Size Dosen't matter to me but prefer it light actually. My Prefered Specs would be the following At Least i5 3rd Gen, Nvidia GT 7xx Series. I've recently heard about AMD Dual Graphics Technology and heard some good reviews on it, hope u guys can enlighten me. So far I only found Acer Aspire V5 that suit my budget :/ Most Important to me is more to reliability, dun want keep rosak here and there.

I not recommended that. This is because.. -Since you doing video converting, its better go for standard processors (i5-M) instead of ULV processors (i5-U) -Nvidia 7xx series have a wide range of graphic cards. But performance is vary for each cards. Nvidia 710M = Nvidia 620M . So 630M pawns 710M already. -I think its hard to find something "light" in this budget which meet your requirements, but at least there is one: Dell Vostro 5460, i5-3230M +Nvidia GT630M@RM1899[1.54kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), Ubuntu 12.04, 3 cell; W8SL@RM2099 One of the disadvantages of this laptop is its only have 1 RAM slot, so since you do video converting, I afraid that 4GB RAM is not enough for you if you do HD video converting, so if you upgrade into 8GB RAM with single RAM stick, its costly Anyway, Dell provide good warranty, so even if spoil you can call them to fix it easily. how come I couldn't find this on the official website anymore? has It discontinued?
