1. Preferred Brand:Looking at MSI / Recommend me
2. Budget: Below 4k
3. Usage: Gaming purpose like watch dog, dying light
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 15 above

i don't mind a bit hot just scare if overheat it will burn out

Hi guys, Would there be a big difference between a 1920x1080 and 1366x768 display on a 13 inch laptop? Mainly use the laptop for browsing, watching movies and some Word work, no gaming at all. Thanks for the input!

Yes. 1080p screen is more sharp.

Hi. I want to ask for recommendation on laptop.

1. Preferred Brand:
2. Budget: around 3.5k
3. Usage: mostly online gaming (mmorpg)
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: Maybe 15.6 inches at least

Acer Nitro meet your requirements

not really convinced by that brand. is there any nitro user? hows its performance? any overheat prob?

can buy acer nitro 2nd hand..
afew users offered 2nd hand selling online..
try for the price rm2.3k to rm2.5k
laptop price depreciate very much

Hai. Need laptop for light user. Budget aroun rm1k. Can suggest one. Tq

After reading reviews and comments all over the internet, I have narrowed my choice of laptop down to two :
- Acer Aspire VN7-591G a.k.a. Acer Nitro
- Dell Inspiron 14 7447-71814G-W8

I read about the foam holding the Acer Nitro HDD in place (which is bad for the HDD when the foam ages) and thought the Dell would be better. Then I read something about the Dell's fingerprint magnet rubber material that would break down over time.

HELP... I need more input. Can you guys help me out?

p.s. I tend to keep my laptops about five or six years before I find myself having to upgrade out of desperation.

I was in the same dilemma as you acer or dell.

Eventually i went for DELL because of the support and price tag.

The lowest i can get on the dell 7447 14 is RM3059 and with alot of freebies.

Furthermore DELL notebook have a subwoofer speaker while the acer just 4 speakers around it.

The finger print is bad only when i carry it with alot stength putting back in notebook bag. Just a wet cloth you wipe its gone.

Overall i prefer the DELL

This very obvious when you watching video or movie HUGE difference and in editing softwares as well. ill go for 1920 x 1080 anytime

If you have such concerns about both these models then i suggest you go with whichever gives you the longest warranty and better after sales service coverage.
Everyone complains about Acers poor CS so i guess Dell would be your choice.

But with a budget for those models, why don't you look for notebooks with the new Nvidia 950M GPU?

Some brands should be releasing already.

dell 7447 is with Nvidia Geforce GTX 850M

Gtx 850m lower than 950m.... however dragon is MSI prominent reseller

Hey tabs,

If you're looking for MSI notebooks then i suggest you wait for the new models with the Nvidia 960 and 950M GPUs.
Should be around your budget (give or take RM100+)

Heard some Lowyat dealers say that new stock already coming. I'm guessing that it will be under the MSI GE series for this GPU.

Go check it out.

Today lazada can get nitro 7 for 2950 after 10% discount.

Thanks for the input, DragonRiderStar, Velocity, aloy88 n those who inboxed me. The input really helped to make up my mind. Now I am thinking of the Dell and Illegear Z5 ha ha ha... if it weren't for the aggressive look of the Z5, I would call it a slamdunk. But it doesnt go with my 'look'. I teach 18 & 19 year olds... I can imagine the reactions if I were to carry the Z5 into my classroom. Ha ha ha...25 years ago, I would go for it but now hmmmm...

Haha... you seems like need a high end but "low profile" notebook.
I believe Illegear have such notebook right? Else, Dell precision.

I do work with CorelDraw...my five year old i3 is driving me crazy. Well I COULD keep on using my old laptop for regular classroom work and keep the other for graphic design work.

hello bros.

im thinking of buying an acer netbook for RM 899. its size is 11.6'.
it comes with intel celeron, 500gb hardisk, no fan (silence computing), 2gb ram and other stuff.

is this netbook worth the price?
or is it overpriced?
