Thanks but between Asus's N series and G series, what are the differences?
let say if I compare N550JV and G55VW side by side.

N series is a multimedia laptop, while the G series is a gaming laptop. if compared side by side, the G55VW will be thicker compared to N550JV, as gaming laptops need to have better cooling solution to keep away the heat. the G55VW also have stealth black colour, which resembles a fighting jet and more ergonomic design for comfortable gaming experience, compared to a non-ergonomic designed N550JV.

between G series or N series which one would you take?

N series for multimedia and normal gaming, G series for gaming and minor professional works.

I think I would only play dota2 during my stay in overseas and some FPS game.

Electronics have a 20% tax in UK so more likely they will be more expensive over there. You can go on amazon.co.uk to check the prices.

Source? I've studied there for 2 years already

If budget is a concern, it is definitely cheaper to buy in Malaysia and upgrade to get International Warranty. Just make sure the brand / model has SC in UK.

thanks for the info. but I cannot decide which one should I pick.
G46 or N550. does 14" affects gaming experience?
