Hi sifu sifus in lowyat forum.. Wanna ask if Acer v nitro still worth to get? My purpose is to do some microsoft works as well as some gaming... Oh my budget max is 3.5k ... Tq

Looking to get a new laptop

Preferred Brand: 1) Lenovo 2) Asus
Proc Intel i3. (not sure AMD any good)
Usage: Steam In Home streaming and browsing mostly
Size and resolution not too important

Price is my limit at 1.2-1.5k
Preferably lower so I can upgrade SSD or RAM

Asus x452LD i3-4030u, 2gb ram, gt820m, windows 8.1 bing, 500gb hdd, price around 1.3k

If im not mistaken, this laptop dont have VGA i/o for projector.

Err think so... now Mostly use HDMI..

Other like e6440/5440 might hv VGA

Inspiron 11 i3/quad core

The thinkpad e-series (E440) comes with VGA.
around 2.5k for basic spec and the only thing i would suggest upgrading is the ram for the stuffs she would be doing.

Most academic institution still uses VGA after all.

Hello guys, I have a desktop but my house is 1 hour away from campus. So I need a powerful enough laptop do my my maya work at the campus.

Would love recommendations for:

1. Preferred Brand: Anything but Acer

2. Budget: Rm3000 - RM4000 (RM5000 max if have too)

3. Usage : Mainly Maya (like modeling, animating), photoshop

4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 15 and above

5. Additional requirement
- good aftersales service
- Reasonable cooling system (Dont want for it to go overheat after using it for just 5 minute lol)


I'm not that familiar with laptop powerful enough for Maya. I went and check the recommended laptop for Maya by Autodesk and the cheapest is around RM5k+ at least

I'm not looking for the best but I'm looking something decent enough to do my work and spend as much time as I can at the campus.

Do let me know. Thank you.

Hey Roscha,

For CorelDraw and Photoshop it's more reliant on the processor than GPU for performance correct?

Suggest you shop around for something with an Intel i7 GPU that meets your requirements.

Alot of designers are also checking out the GS60 2PL GHOST from MSI. RM4,899 with 15'6in screen in a slim and stylish Mg-Li body
http://my.msi.com/product/nb/GS60-2PL-Ghos...o-specification

Saw that they also have a gold edition with 4k display but price is crazy at RM7,999 (cause using latest 970M graphic card)
You won't need that imho as you can also have 4k output to external displays with the GS60 2PL

Hi all,ive narrowed down my choice to asus g751jt,msi ge62 2qf.which is better?(don't care about warranty).
Preferred brand:dell,msi,asus
Budget 5.5k (can go to 6k if necessary)
Usage:heavy gaming
Screen size:15 above
Must have dual fan,i7 4th gen and gtx970m.planning to get it in 1st or 2nd week of march.thanks in advance.
