Thanks for your respond smile.gif , actually eyeing on the following models:
Dell Inspiron 7538 - concern: low res display, it's a pain in the eye after looking at so many high res display hah
Asus UX303LN - concern: I believe the faulty yellow issue doesn't affect MY ver wif FHD display, but there're many broken hinge report out there...
Asus G551JM - concern: bulky and red design is not my favorite haha, yet Asus Taiwan just announced G552, waiting Asus March product guide

Built quality and display is what I wish along with good performance, GPU I can tolerate as the latest title I interested are just Child of Light & Transistor blush.gif
As Malaysia Ringgit doing so bad and GST coming at April Fool, wish to update my 5 years Asus N53SV (2nd i5, GT540M) before the huge bang on the price like Macbook, which WAS planned to get at the end of this year haha sweat.gif

To be honest I hvnt see huge improvement on the 5th gen yet... PPL all say wait 5th gen quad core... but gst follow Wif it.. sigh...

ya, since it's a Tick from Intel, 4th gen M/QM/HQ is still better than the newer U series, also, quad core also means thicker profile and lager power adapter hah

then the currency exchange rate for MYR is so bad that I'm expecting pricier new product for us Malaysian follow with GST cry.gif

just saw this



that horrible cover + screen flex is far from being "good quality".

Thanks for the info, I also wonder how the lid can be flex like this while most review stated that it's made from aluminum haha. Btw, myway1985 still being helpful for answering some of my questions, although I still don't have a set mind which model to get :/

::it's a headache with my 5 years old Asus, but it' also a headache finding a new laptop sweat.gif
