Illegear is a pretty good choice, especially in terms of bang for buck and also customizability. However, if you are looking for international warranty coverage, then its not suitable for you and will not be recommended.

It appears that the gamers' blood flow through your veins lol, so a true gaming notebook is what you seek nod.gif

I would recommend going for this one:
15.6"
MSI GE60-2OE, i7-4700MQ + Nvidia GTX765M + (1920x1080; anti-glare)@RM4299,8GB, 750GB(7200rpm), W8, backlit keyboard

*Use your remaining budget to get a 256GB SSD and you are good to go~
*Comes with 2 years international warranty
*
Yeah, I'm a gamer since i'm a little kid, been through almost all gaming consoles, portable gaming devices, so... Gamer's Blood really flow through my veins...lol tongue.gif

So, MSI GE60-20E then... Well, Thanks for the advice my friend wink.gif i'm gonna check it out for the last time before i will get one though but really, thanks alot wink.gif

And LAST QUESTION? why doesn't anyone here ever recommend an alienware gaming laptop????? just curious...

Well, most people do not have the budget to get an AW 17 hmm.gif
As for the AW14, unless if one specifically wants a 14 incher, yet not worried about the weight, then we recommend the AW 14. But most people who wanted a powerful, smaller 14 incher will probably want it to be light weight and slim as well, where the MSI GE40 will be the better choice nod.gif

The previous M14x was such a hit because it was the only 14" gaming notebook that time when released nod.gif
Still, there will always be buyers of Alienwares because its probably most people's (including me) dream notebook thumbup.gif

1 Brand : not acer
2 Budget : RM 3k-4K
3 Usage : Music/video production, mainly Ableton live, normal work, some matlab, some drupal, I don't play games so the gpu is not important.
4 Screen size : 15.6'' only, must be 1080p, touchscreen not important
5 Requirements : need 1TB of HDD space, 4th gen Haswell processor, i5 or i7 not a big deal.

The model I've found so far that looks good is the HP ENVY TS 15-j003TX . Moreover, it only uses 1 ram slot for the 1600hz 4GB ram so I can always upgrade it later. (But it doesn't have full hd so nevermind....)

or the ASUS N550JV-CN077H, i7-4702MQ + Nvidia GT750M + (1920x1080; IPS matte) + Bluray@RM3699[2.7kg], 4GB, 1TB, W8, backlit keyboard

(Asus doesn't have online shop?)

If there are any new models that are coming out in a few months I don't mind waiting for it if it's really worth it

Thanks

(Why no one reply yet ah.... my budget too low or what...)

14"
Acer V5-473PG-54204G50, i5-4200 + Nvidia GT740M +(1366x768;touch)@RM2299, 4GB, 500GB,W8 *no OD

Asus K46CB-WX060H, i5-3337U + Nvidia GT740M@RM2199[2kg], 2GB, 750GB, W8, 4-cell, OD

Dell
Vostro 5460, i5-3337U + Nvidia GT630M + (32GB mSATA SSD + 500GB(5400rpm))@RM2199[1.54kg], 4GB, W8SL, 3 cell
Vostro 5460, i5-3230M +Nvidia GT630M@RM1899[1.54kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), Ubuntu 12.04, 3 cell; W8SL@RM2099
Inspiron 14R, i5-4200U + Nvidia GT740M@RM2049 [2.32kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W8 , 6 cell

Sony SVF14217SG, i3-3227U + Nvidia GT740M + (1366x768; touch)@RM2299, 4GB, 500GB, W8SL; colors:black/white/pink

Toshiba Satellite L40-AS109Xb/G/W, i5-3337U + Nvidia GT740M@RM2199[Onkyo], 4GB, 750GB, 3 years local warranty; colors: Blue/gold/white

*Prices in RRP, negotiable
*The RM2199 Vostro 5460 is a pretty good choice since it comes with an mSATA SSD as standard. But getting that means you won't have enough money to extend warranty to 3 years (recommended regardless of brand except Asus)

14"
