Not exactly very slim, but these are pretty powerful + you get very good warranty service if opted
14"
Dell
Inspiron 14R, i5-4200U + Nvidia GT740M + (1366x768, Touch) @RM2299 [2.32kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W8 , 6 cell

*use remaining budget to get an SSD 256GB if possible

If you don't mind the weak WiFi and shorter battery life, can consider Dell Vostro 5470 as well

Dell Vostro 5470, i5-4200U + Nvidia GT740M + 32GB mSATA + 500GB(5400rpm) + (1366x768; Touch)@RM2549, 4GB, W8.1, 3-cell

*prices in RRP
*extend warranty to 3 years on-site (highly recommended if warranty support is important to you)

So far only MSI has released their next-gen lineups with Nvidia 800 series GPU.. even so, it will take some time for stocks to arrive..
Not sure about Asus

15.6"
MSI
GE60-2PE-096MY, i7-4700HQ + Nvidia GTX860M + (1920x1080; anti-glare) @RM4199[Dynaudio], 8GB, 1TB (7200rpm) HDD, W8.1, multi-coloured backlid

MSI
GE70-2PE-095MY, i7-4700HQ + Nvidia GTX860M + (1920x1080; anti-glare) @RM4299[Dynaudio], 8GB, 1TB (7200rpm) HDD, W8.1, multi-coloured backlid



*Prices in RRP
Unfortunately those with GTX870M exceeded your budget
Use remainingb budget to opt for an SSD and RAM upgrade

**I would suggest you wait for other brands to offer their lineups of notebooks with the new GPU so that you will have more options, and that the prices will not be so expensive (new stuffs will always be more expensive)

Definitely must buy in Malaysia?
Is the warranty valid over where you are heading to? These are some of the things to check if you are buying and flying overseas mate!

As for GTX860M vs GTX770M Since you have to buy in a hurry, no point letting you know haha, later you heartpain

Only one person would know about these yet-to-released stuffs
And its our God_leewhat2004 sifu haha, he's probably still stalking here and there

I'm not sure about the prices in Japan But do make sure the warranty is covered over there before you buy yo.. otherwise headache!
GTX770m and GTX860M is more or less on par, with one performing better than the other depending on the game. However, the GTX860M will probably perform better after a few Nvidia updates imho
But I suppose for your case, going for the GTX770m won't bring about that much difference also la~

Yeah, based on the new MSI lineups, you'll need around RM6k or more for a GTX870m... We have to wait and see what Asus and Illegear offers


If you want good after sales service, then these are pretty much your options

That's good to know man
Please do update if you find anything

Closest would be this one:
14"
Lenovo Ideapad Flex 14, i3-4010U + Nvidia GT720M +(1366x768; touch) + 8GB SSHD + 500GB HDD@RM1799, 4GB, W8, 2 yrs; color: black

Use remaining budget to extend warranty to 3 years, and upgrade RAM to 8GB

Can try looking for numbertwo, storm88, devour, hikari85 here in lyn

Please follow the format

Just wait for official release man, speculation doesn't help
And this is a recommendations thread, please stick to your own thread

Hor u see, u made God angry liao

That is true, but I think the Nvidia GPU probably will be "fixed" across models..
Still, too early to tell haha, let's wait and see

Thanks for sharing man~
Updated the info in the price catalogue yesterday already
Nothing really new unfortunately lol, maybe next month

Okok, enough talk here, please use your own thread in Mobile Computing

Its okay man
Its easier for us to recommend if we know what you wanted to do with the laptop ma, which is why we have the format
Takkan you just want a notebook with CD-ROM? haha, even a 10 years old laptop will fulfill this criteria

The "shell" of the X and C series notebooks are probably different as well
Do check them out and see which one you like more..

The battery capacity of the i3 variant appears to be slightly larger too based on your links (assuming they are correct )
Imho, just go for the i5 if only choosing in between these two

Done
Time for new thread, please proceed to there ya: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=3166674
