MSI don't have much choice in 14" form factor.
GE40-2OC, i7-4702MQ + Nvidia GTX760M + (1600x900; anti-glare)@RM3499[1.8kg], 4GB, 750GB(7200rpm), W8

B.
Vostro 5470, i3-4010U + Intel HD4400@RM1899, 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W8, 3-cell
Inspiron 14-3437, i3-4010U + Intel HD4400@RM1399[1.99kg], Ubuntu, 4GB, 750GB(5400rpm), 4-cell; W8SL@RM1549
Extend warranty to 3 years on site ~ RM300. If you go with the Inspiron, you still have remaining budget to put in a SSD (128G ~ RM300) to replace the HDD (keep as external storage). (Btw, the 3 cell battery (48Whr) in 5470 actually has larger capacity than the 4 cell battery (40 Whr) of Inspiron (but less than the 6 cell battery (60 Whr) of Inspiron).

Prices are RSP, negotiable.

Thanks man for your recommendations.
Now maybe considering a 15 inch as well, you think the GE60 is worth it ?

Thanks in advance.
