Don't really know much about desktops unfortunately
Ask the sifus in this correct section: https://forum.lowyat.net/HardwareQuestions&Answers
Good luck~

Ok thank you.

If you aren't concern about the warranty, then you can give it a try. But I don't really recommend razer blade pro, due to not reasonable pricing with specs.

lenovo flex 14 touch - boots faster, no dvd drive, flexible screen, 4-cell batt, lighter
dell inspiron 14r touch - with dvd drive, 6-cell batt, heavier

considering above, may i know which one better?

is dvd drive really necessary nowadays? thanks

Depends on your usage?

If I increase my budget to 4k, is there any other choices?
Yesterday i saw MSI is rolling out new laptops with gtx 800m series gpu, i am quite interested with GE 60 2PC and GX60 Destroyer, what is your suggestions?

Yeah, those new lineups are pretty impressive, but you might have to wait for them to become available

GE60-2PE-097MY, i7-4700HQ + Nvidia GTX850M + (1920x1080; anti-glare) @RM3999[Dynaudio], 8GB, 1TB (7200rpm) HDD, W8.1, multi-coloured backlid

* Price in RRP
* Estimated benchmarks have it that both GPUs perform better than a GT750M SLI, but its too early to conclude much. I would suggest going for the RM4199 variant

If this 2 laptops compare to GX 60 with amd proc and gpu? I personally love the design of msi gx60 and its speaker with sub woofer included, but i am not sure of the performance between these 3 laptops

Hello. I need some suggestions to buy a new laptop.

1. Preferred Brand : ASUS or LENOVO

2. Budget : RM 2k

3. Usage : video editing (Adobe After Effects), 2D animation (Adobe Flash), Adobe Photoshop and light gaming.

4. Preferred laptop/screen size :14" or 15"

Thank you in advance!

Although AMD GPUs are pretty awesome for the price; the same cannot be said for AMD's CPU
Since you are working on video editing and stuffs which can be rather CPU intensive, its better to stick to Intel

Hi guys, would need some help in recommending a laptop/ultrabook for my work and entertainment purposes.

1. Preferred Brand - No specific preference, as long as good after sales service
2. Budget - RM4k
3. Usage - Will be using Autocad and photoshop. Plus for casual entertainment.
4. Preferred laptop/screen size : 13 to 15 inch, preferably touch enabled

Appreciate if you all can give a nice recommend, would like something light for portability.

Thanks.

Holy sh*t, that is one awesome budget you have there
Anyways, depending on your definition of "light game", the recommendation varies.
If you are talking about playing the latest games in the market, then there's only one pick to be honest haha

Recommending 13" for better viewing experience. Personally I would opt for the Dell XPS13 mainly because of Dell's awesome complete cover warranty which also includes accidental coverage (definitely worth buying). Repair time is within 1-2 business days only unlike other brands that you have to send your notbeook in yourself and might have to wait up to 2 months for repairs

Can also consider the Sony if you fancy all the extra features like stylus and extra docking option.

Try to avoid those with resolutions higher than Full HD since most programs ain't optimized for such high resolution = things will appear too small on the screen = headache
