3 years is always the best since the rate of spoilage is higher between year 2-3 when compared to 1-2.
But do take note that will exceed your budget already if you decide to get the RS-15 Lite.
Try and bargain with PrinceJ or any other Illegear resellers before you purchase ya, I'm sure they will be able to help give some discounts  icon_rolleyes.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...)

Can consider these:
Option 1:
14"
Dell Inspiron 14R, i5-4200U + Nvidia GT740M@RM2049 [2.32kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W8 , 6 cell
*use remaining budget for warranty extension to 3 years
*weaker performance


Option 2:
14"
Inspiron 14R, i7-4500U + Nvidia GT750M (GDDR5) @RM2499[2.32kg], 8GB, 1TB(5400rpm), Ubuntu 12.04 , 6 cell; W8SL@RM2699
*better performance, but no warranty coverage

Option 1 will be better for your usage imho nod.gif

Not budget too low, but too requirements too demanding laugh.gif
If not looking at your 1TB HDD requirement (can get external one for that), and also RAM slots. Can consider this as well:
15.6"
MSI GE60-2OE, i7-4700MQ + Nvidia GTX765M + (1920x1080; anti-glare)@RM4299,8GB, 750GB(7200rpm), W8, backlit keyboard

*Price in RRP, nego until RM4k and you are good to go

Yeah, they are in RRP, meaning you can get cheaper than that price nod.gif
Whereas it is worth it or not really depends on you; whether you need a portable notebook, or a notebook with a bigger screen for better viewing laugh.gif
