This thread is my life saver! Please help me again! Previously already asked for recommendation about 1month ago but till now haven't buy yet, cause previously not so urgent on lappy. Now I'm urgent!
After I survey... Low price with good spec. I chose Lenovo, but between Lenovo I still have questions.

Y500 vs Z500!
Y500 i7 4GB 500GB 650M x2 6CELL w/o SLi (Can upgrade next time) Rm3099 (w/ SLi Rm3480)
Z500 i5 4GB 1TB 645M 4CELL RM2169
Budget Rm2700

I'm a student studying software engineering.
Which one should I get ?
I'm playing DoTA 2, and I hate lags!

What I scare is price like Rm2169 for the Z500 laptop, i scare even Mircrosoft Office also lag.

If i top up Rm400 i can get y500 which is a beast! and maybe 1 or 2 year later I can upgrade SLi if needed.
Example: maybe i might get interest with CUDA and play CUDA programming LOL

Or i save Rm500+ get Z500 average laptop ? and 2years later maybe buy another one ??
Cause ppl told me technology can change very fast. now 650SLi can be very strong.
You won't know after 2years maybe TITAN V20 also come out already.
But my uncle told me to get 6CELL laptop.

THIS IS SO CONFUSED!!
Which is worth ?

Thanks! You're the life saver!
So what i get is Z500 upgrade max ram and max SSD will do ?
So total up almost reaching Rm2700 already ?
HAHA! Good idea!

Wow so exp one ahh haha
So when I got a laptop. Is cooler needed, when at home in my personal room?

so u mean z500 non-touch very hard to change ssd ?

Lenovo doesnt provide upgrade SSD. So we need to upgrade outside ourself ?
Same as Ram. upgrade ourself or take lenovo's upgrade. If upgrade ourself will void warranty?

Thanks! I have an IT friend, he owns a PC shop. very convenience!
Now another problem came, just found out Z500 running Dual Core! This is sucks!
It's 2013 and dual core is like super outdated! Arggghhh!

Should I go for Y500 ? Confused again

Even Galaxy Note 2 also running quad core.
Notebook lose to smartphone like too cacat

Another thing I found out currently, Y500 is a best selling and most hot topic in LYN Forum Notebook Specific Disccussion.

If I want get y500, got what benefit other than gaming ?

I just now saw ur LYN name sounds familiar!
Now
I rmbed you!!! I bought Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1 from you before! HAHA It was 2years back if not mistaken.

so Z500 cannot run photoshop ???!?!?!?
woah! this really suck! 2cores should be able to run, maybe cannot render high res img if not mistaken.
My Phenom x4 render also slow ady. Load high res img also takes time.

THanks guys!
