Preferred Brand = ASUS, DELL, TOSHIBA, LENOVO
2. Budget = less than 2.2K
3. Usage = uni student, gaming
4. Preferred laptop/screen size = 14'

Your requirement is a head scratcher
You want (full) aluminium body, with no plastic. That are normally found in:
a. ultrabook; or
b. business class laptop (magnesium alloy)
a. ultrabook - normally spec with ULV CPU (which is weaker than i5-3230M), and don't come with discrete GPU.
b. business class laptop - normally don't come with discrete GPU, and even if it does, it will be Quadro / Firepro, and for these cards to be on par with GT740M for gaming purpose, you are looking at quite expensive solution.

Just buy a MacBook Pro 15" lah

MacBookPro 15", i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650M + (1440x900)@RM5499[2.56kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, Mac OSX
MacBookPro 15", i7-3720QM + Nvidia GT650M + (1440x900)@RM6799[2.56kg], 8GB, 750GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, Mac OSX
MacBookPro 15" (Retina Display), i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650M + 256GB SSD + (2880x1800)@RM6799[2.02kg], 8GB, backlit keyboard, Mac OSX
MacBookPro 15" (Retina Display), i7-3720QM + Nvidia GT650M + 512GB SSD + (2880x1800)@RM8699[2.02kg], 8GB, backlit keyboard, Mac OSX

Wait a bit since it will be refreshed with Haswell soon.

Or you may look at this as well:
N550JV-CN077H, i7-4702MQ + Nvidia GT750M + (1920x1080; IPS matte) + Bluray@RM3699[2.7kg], 4GB, 1TB, W8, backlit keyboard (no, it's not full aluminium body, but look close enough)

Asus
N550JV-CN077H, i7-4702MQ + Nvidia GT750M + (1920x1080; IPS matte) + Bluray@RM3699[2.7kg], 4GB, 1TB, W8, backlit keyboard (this GT750M is spec with GDDR3 )
G55VW-S1216H, i7-3630QM +Nvidia GTX660M (2GB) + (1920x1080)@RM3999[3.78kg], 4GB, 1TB(5400rpm), W8

Dell

Lenovo

For pur gaming performance, Y500 is best bet.
For best screen, N550JV.
For most solid build, G55VW.

Is Dell 15r series aluminium enough? Haven't seen one in person though. And I seem to notice something about discrete CPU in one of its specs. Pretty cheap stuff as well.

thanks for the link sir...any recommendation for the laptop within my preferred features as my previous post?

Thanks in advance
