Thivaakar, i think the Y50 is slimmer compared to the GP60. But not sure about it's upgrade bays. Also did a quick google and saw some comments about the poor viewing angle. Mebbe need more checks.


Bro, of course everything needs to be soldered on a motherboard lah. But if you're referring to the CPU then yalorr.. some hobbyist complained about it before as they wanted to upgrade the chip but not really that easy.

Yo Necro-man!

Check out the MSI GP60 2PE
Just under your budget at RM2,999 for Intel i7 and RM2,699 for the i5. Think the faster CPU would be better for the programs you're using. Anyways, both are using the Nvidia GTX 840M GPU which is Maxwell already.

The MSI GP60 comes with 1 mSATA connector so you can add on SSD without throwing away the HDD.

Question, how come you're not considering a notebook or desktop with Quadro card since you're using Autocad?

Hey Emily, see if you can stretch your budget a little.

for RM3,799.. MSI GE60 2PC. Brushed aluminium finish with backlit keyboards that have customisable keys and colour.
You pay more for better features and 8GB of DDR3 RAM.

for under your budget, RM2,999 and RM2,699 for GP60 2PE (i7) and (i5) respectively.

All the models above use a 15'6in matte anti-glare screen.

bro wat I mean is not slot type. still prefer the slot type than on board. on board type like gtx 765m in aw14 is a headache. very very hard to upgrade.

Aka, the lenovo y50 is actually a newer notebook to the market. good thing is they finally dropped the SLI idea and put in a 860M GPU. There's a free DOS version for RM3,599 but for that price you should go with either the MSI or Dell as they are cheaper and comes with Windows already installed. Unless of course you have a space OS license lying around.

Would recommend you also check out the MSI GE60 2PC though. Same specs as the GE60 2PL but comes with more features at RM3,799.

1. Any
2. Below RM 2k
3. Autocad, excel, surf internet, movie & songs
4. 11-13"

Additional condition:
i3-i5, portable (less then 1.5kg), durable (6-8 hours battery life), touch screen preferable

1. Preferred Brand: Mostly to Dell but I'm open to any other reliable brand as well
2. Budget: 3k more or less, would stretch if its worth it
3. Usage: Preferable if Dota 2 on high setting, but could live with medium as well (Been using a 5 years old lappy to play)
Movies, some photo editing, internet surfing
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 14" to 17" its alright

Some add on, it must have a dual HDD slot(once you goes SSD, there's no moving back... )either at the cost of an optical drive or come default. I don't mind DIY to remove the optical drive.

So far this inspiron 17 7000 caught my attention, need more opinion thanks!


16SEPT add-on: After some brief survey, MSI GE60, Inspiron 17(7737) and Inspiron 14(7447) seems to fit my budget.
I'm still open to any other reliable brand (good after sales service)
Would be great if it's enclosed with aluminium casing!
