Thank you so much! you're so helpful
Besides the Asus K46CB do you have any other recommendations for a budget below rm2500?
The Asus gaming line seems so manly and it would be pretty weird for me to carry it around campus.
Any recommendations from any brand would be fine, I'm so sorry but I don't really know who to ask, and I don't really wanna believe what the shop says because knowing I'm a girl I'm afraid that they would cheat me haha.
Many thanks ahead!

Thank you But I play casually, ain't that serious because I like outdoor adventures too haha.
Anyways my friend recommended Lenovo Y500, and he mentioned something about Ultrabay. God it's so confusing! If only I had a higher budget I'd go for Illegear, and I'd be the only person in town to carry that beauty :3

Hence, it's all down to the K46CB, Y500 and Acer's V5-473PG.
Still asking around for opinions.
mfitri77 recommended Acer's V5, saying that it vents air to the back, that's good I guess because my left hand do feel the heat with side venting.

I'm in a dilemma. Damn.

As for you if you can wait, I believe that would be a great choice
And thank you for confirming the price of K46CB!

Hi,

I have the Asus K46CB i7 3537U with 8GB RAM for over 4 months. Bought in Thailand for 27k bht, now the price dropped to 24k bht. In my opinion this is one amazing piece of hardware. 4 months ago it was best value for the money. Maybe still is?

Pros:
very slim and sturdy design, display doesn't wobble and is laptop is very light for these specs, easily portable
quite powerful specs, no CPU throttling, GT740 easily overclockable. 3dmark 2011: 2321, 3dmark2013 firestrike: 1387p., Bioshock, newNFS, Dishonored and GRID 2 work flawlessly at high settings
great keyboard
very quiet in idle and not too noisy when gaming
ODD bay easily replacable with HD caddy. I recently bought one on ebay for 400bht and will going to replace ODD with factory 750GB drive.
very strong wifi signal - tested in many different coffee shops in my city.

Cons:
factory HD is super slow. I had to replace it with Kingston SSD 128GB drive. That's the first thing you want to do because otherwise system feels like 10years old netbook.
trackpad is just average
no backlight keyboard
I couldn't handle factory installed Win8 so I downgraded to Win7.

Other remarks:
Battery time: around 3 hours. (50 firefox bookmarks, MSoffice, winamp, skype and few other smaller tasks, display 50%).
Watch out for Intel Anty Theft system! This hardware so called "feature" completely locked up my computer after I registered it! Don't touch this crap ever!
display is not that bad, pretty bright and good contrast. Much better than my previous Dell 1310. Passable.
temperatures: between 45-50 at idle, up to 70 at load. Chassis doesn't get hot at all. However the vents on the left side are working pretty hard when gaming.

I use this laptop on daily basis at work for 7-8 hours and so far I am happy with the purchase

cheers!
Jim
