Is Lenovo Z500 is a good choice ? The price tags look so reasonable but it seem too thin and I afraid it will become hotter faster when using for a long time.

why not z510p with newer processor ?

My friends asking me about my opinion for the Z500 because he looks so interested to buy it. For me the price rm2.3k is very reasonable with the spec. Same with me , he also don't want the touch screen model. But it seem that the model is too thin and can easily trap heat when using too long.

if you dont mind bigger/ bulky chasis, mind consider Dell 14 r or 15 r .

Hi. I'm a newbie here. And I need some help to find the right laptop.

1. Preferred Brand - any will do
2. Budget - around 2k
3. Usage - multitasking, heavy adobe photoshop usage, video editing/rendering (usually Sony Vegas), heavy downloads, some programming
4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 14" or 15"

I went to a store before and the store assistant recommended this one:

HP Pavillion m4-1001TX Notebook (2kg)
Intel i5-3230M Processor (2.6Ghz, 3MB L3 Cache)
4GB RAM DDR3 & 500GB Hard Disk
14" LED Backlit Display
NVIDIA GeForce 730M Graphics with 2048MB dedicated DVD Drive
Wireless, webcam, bluetooth
Window 8 64-bit

The thing is, I can't find any useful reviews for this model. It's like it is a rare model and it's not good enough for tech blogger to test it. Is it good enough for me or maybe you know some bad reviews about this model?

And please recommend any other option for me. I need some list.

BTW, I noticed that you tend to recommend Dell and ASUS and so little HP. Is there any reason for that?

Sorry for long 1st post.

Hi guys,

Helping my mom buying laptop for her retirement project : writing books.

1. Relieable brand with good warranty
2. Below rm2k, maybe topup rm200 or rm300 hundred max if topup make big differents in overall performance.
3. Mostly writing, internet or some pictures viewing
4. Laptop for writing, hence bigger screen better

Actually I find samsung ativ lite quite fit the requirements.. but after looking at few review kinda need to think for other options..

so for sifus your help are very mush welcome..
