Z5 default display is IPS, Q5 is TN display by default.

Hey every sifu,

Im looking for a portable laptop (max budget 4.2k)~

currently interested on
-PE60
-GE60
-GP60
-Lenovo Y50
-Asus G551

I will be travelling a lot, hence the laptop has to be portable. Usage will be on AutoCaD, Photoshop, and some gaming like NBA2k~ can anyone recommend which shud i get? The display is also another factors as I'm doing design-related works..

I heard gud reviews about illegear Z5, but the laptop seems abit overweight >.<

If you need good screen, I think Y50 you may exclude it from the list. Most of these laptop you listed weight around 1.9 - 2.4kg.. To be honest, there is not much different once you're carrying it in a backpack..
You may consider Z5 or Q5 or MSI PE60 cause the spec are quite similar and it is all up to your personal preference. I will avoid GE60 cause its previous batch is having heat issue.

hi, get the PE60 as it is a new model in market, the body design quite elegant (silky silver with metalic cover), only about 2.4kg. PE60 processor is 5th Gen CPU with true color technology, 100% SRGB panel - it is best to those doing design, Nvidia GTX960 2GB DDR5 graphic card. Good to choose and good to own this model.

any recommendations for gaming laptop around 3-4k included with windows already? Most of the time will be used to play "casual" games like fifa or nba 2k. So far i'm considering to buy either Y50 or ROG G551.

thanks.

Hello. Can u give opinion on which one is better? Its hard to choose between these 3 model.

Lenovo Y50(59-442223) vs Asus ROG G501JW-CN139H vs Acer VN7-591G-78A2

Acer Aspire E5-573G RM2299

Should be FHD

Is there much difference between 940m & 950m? 950m will cost me extra RM500. I intend to play on low-med settings until Maxwell comes out.

maxwell already out

i am a y510p user. i posted here is because the lenovo specific discussion thread is kinda dead, so i hope someone might b able to enlighten me here. Recently, my laptop went for repair and the shop exchanged a new motherboard for me. now, my laptop says it cannot activate windows. may i know why? is it that w8.1 license key is encoded on the motherboard unlike win7 which has a sticker at the back of laptop and the new motherboard does not have authentic license key?

Most laptop windows come as OEM version, and most likely it is tied to your MOBO. I'm not sure whether your laptop is retail version or OEM version, try ask the service center for a new key or ask them to activate for you. As long as your previous laptop is using genuine version, they should replace you with a new one. (But not upgrading it, if you're using Windows 7, they will replace Windows 7 for you not Windows 8 or 8.1)

i just know that when i buy the laptop, the shop told me its genuine, and the catalog there wrote genuine also. so, i guess its OEM??

Well most likely it is tied to your MOBO. So try request for a new one.

how? if it is tied to my mobo, then my mobo already exchange for new one, how to change??

Request for a new activation of Windows from your service provider. Since you claim for your warranty and they replaced your mobo, they should also give you the OS together.

By right they SHOULDN'T charge you any extra charge for the OS activation / OS key.

P.S: But you need to make sure your version of OS. Either OEM (tied to mobo or not) or Retail version

On Lenovo Malaysia website, Y50 still with GTX860M while in Lenovo USA website has already been updated to GTX960M.

hmm i think they didn't update the website. I think they have the 960m version in Malaysia. but i am really on the sideline on the cooling system though.

Any opnion on MSI PE60?
illegear z5 is good but warranty claiming would be issue as I not stay in KL
Acer nitro seen like having heat issue n need tweak cooling profile...
lenovo y50, screen is a big no for me....

i need the workstation having good screen for photoshop, cad design, and gaming purpose...

rog 551 or rog 552 asus?
Also anyone selling?
Please pm me if anyone is.
