Hi guys, which one do you recommend between Asus K46CB and Asus A450CC?

Or please recommend me other brand which has below speks:
1. Preferred Brand: ASUS/Lenovo/Dell
2. Budget:RM2000
3. Usage: office work/ coding / medium game
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 14inch and slim

Pretty much these:
14"
Asus
K46CB-WX060H, i5-3337U + Nvidia GT740M@RM2199[2kg], 2GB, 750GB, W8, 4-cell, OD

Dell
Inspiron 14R, i5-4200U + Nvidia GT740M@RM1849 [2.32kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), Linux, 6 cell; W8@RM2049

Lenovo
Z400, i5-3230M + Nvidia GT740M@RM2099, 4GB, 1TB, W8; 2 years warranty; colors: chocolate *EOL-ed

*Prices in RRP, negotiable
*The Lenovo is EOL-ed already, might be a bit hard to find

Spec-wise, all 3 models perform pretty similarly in terms of gaming performance since they all have the same GPU.
CPU-wise, the Lenovo is the most powerful
Warranty-wise, both Lenovo and Asus come with 2 years international warranty. But the latter is known to offer very bad warranty support

I have that kind of budget too but with an extra RM 500, I can get Y400, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT750M@RM2499, 4GB, 500GB, FreeDOS, 120wPSU, swappable ODD, 2 years warranty.

IMO it's more of a gaming future proof with the swappable ODD with another GC, do you agree with me?

How does the Y400 perform with 21" external monitor (dual monitor)? I need that due to my work.

Need your opinion on this. Thanks

Yeah, its a pretty good choice if you are familiar with installing your own OS

But please do check whether the swappable exGPU for the Y400 is the same as the Y410p. If they are not, then please take note and don't buy the wrong one
Can head over to the dedicated Y series thread for more personal feedbacks: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2851949

The notebook will have no problems handling two monitors if that's what you are asking
But do expect gaming performance to drop abit at super high resolutions, which can be easily rectified by lowering the resolution. Can refer here for GPU FPS for specific games: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Computer-Game...ds.13849.0.html

I'm not really sure you will be able to get a super good screen for your budget unfortunately, unless if you consider getting an external monitor..

You might want to go and try out the Acer and Asus notebooks' IPS screen 1st and see whether they are good enough for you. Otherwise, you can actually just get a smaller notebook i.e. 14 incher for portability, and connect to a much better monitor for better color reproduction

i doubt u can found stock for new set of y400 free dos - local set now

for the Dell 15r, correct RPP should be rm 2499, rm 2699 right?

2. Budget - 1.5k
3. Use for - little assignment and gaming.
4 Display 14" - 15"/ any laptop

Plzz help meeeee

Hi there, a few days ago I asked for some advice with the requirements below:
1. Preferred Brand - Any which can be found in Penang
2. Budget - RM2,500
3. Usage - Will mostly be used for going online and moderate gaming (I don't play games hardcore but could probably use one with a better graphic card for games like GTA)
4. Preferred laptop/screen size - None but of course it's a plus if it's larger.

And I was advised the following models :

Dell
Inspiron 14R, i7-4500U + Nvidia GT750M (GDDR5) @RM2499[2.32kg], 8GB, 1TB(5400rpm), Ubuntu 12.04 , 6 cell; W8SL@RM2699

Lenovo
Y400, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT750M@RM2499, 4GB, 500GB, FreeDOS, 120wPSU, swappable ODD, 2 years warranty
Y400, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT750M@RM2799, 4GB, 500GB, W8, 120wPSU, swappable ODD, 2 years warranty

Today, I went to a computer shop and asked about the Dell model, instead, he told me that the Toshiba Satellite L-Series may suit me better as it's cheaper and has 3 years warranty, etc, or if I fancy touchscreen, the S-Series. I went to another shop and he said the same thing. May I know what you guys think? Thanks so much

the toshiba satellite series has weaker GPU, if its for entertainment --->ok, not for gaming much
