Greetings,

I am currently using a 4 years old laptop with GT540M. (it was one of the top recommended laptop here, back when this thread was still at V12 haha) My currently laptop is still functioning great (the battery has failed, but otherwise this is a really good laptop), but I am looking to get a hybrid/tablet for my new working environment.

Oh and, to be frank, I bought Grey Goo (game) from Steam not long ago, and was kind of letdown when it fails to run on my GT540M. So my current plan is,
1) to get a hybrid or tablet which is good enough to play Grey Goo, within my budget of RM3000.00 max (already stretching my budget, don't plan to top up anymore)
-or-
2) to get a cheaper Windows tablet for my working environment (currently looking at Acer Aspire Switch 10E), AND a full laptop which can play... well, Grey Goo (something like this, with 940M, should work... all within the budget of RM3000.00 max

This Lenovo Yoga 2-in-1 seems interesting, but I doubt its graphic card can work on Grey Goo...

Any advice would be nice.

Thanks in advance.
1. Preferred brand - No preferred brand, although good warranty is a plus. Lenovo should suffice (no need to go for Dell's warranty service; their products don't really fit my criteria at first glance)
2. Budget - RM3000.00 max. Of course the cheaper the better
3. Tablet - for work, smooth OneNote, can operate bigger Excel files smoothly. Hybrid/Laptop - for work, and casual game
4. Screen size - 14 inches or less, for the hybrid laptop. I don't mind 8 or 10 inches tablet for working purpose. 14 - 15 inches, for the laptop.

Good evening Pandera999, thank you for the super swift reply.

Asus TP500LB fits my criteria well. I didn't have it under my radar prior to this, thanks for the suggestion! I am paying a visit to KL next week or so, and plan to check on the laptop at Lowyat. My current laptop is ASUS and I find their keyboard favorable.

Being able to convert into tablet form is a deal breaker for me though. Currently, I will only consider buying a full non-convertible laptop if I have sufficient leftover budget to buy another cheap windows tablet to compliment it.

Having a portable computer is a great plus in my working environment (I am expecting to hold the computer with one hand, and keep the other hand busy most of the time). But I understand I can't be too greedy with a RM3000 budget. Will go and have hand-on test on the 2-in-1 laptops when I pass by Lowyat.

1. Preferred Brand - Any, as long as it's reliable.
2. Budget - Under RM4,000.
3. Usage - Mostly gaming.
4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 14". 15.6" would still be okay I guess.
5. Preferences - Good looking, something like the Lenovo Y50, Alienware etc. SSD, GTX960M?

This will replace both my Macbook Air & desktop.

Hey guys, need 2 laptops recommendation for a friend of mine. Different usage.

1. Preferred Brand : Any
2. Budget: 3k total for both
3. Usage: General usage. 1st laptop need to at least capable of doing photo and video editing (adobe photoshop, sony vegas etc) 2nd laptop is just for multimedia purpose (watching movie, web surfing and so on)
4. Preferred laptop/screen size : 14"/15"

Thanks in advance =)

I see. Thanks guys. Any chance of getting a UHD screen? I think I may fork out around 4500.. Lenoyo Y50 looks amazing but a bit expensive and the GC is 860m only. Actually is there really a difference with 960m?

UHD screen quite useless now.. dun hv 60hz yet... full hd stil better

UHD more for graphical work now

I see, the Illegear Z5 with 970m, RM4999, worth it?

Hi,

I am owning a MacBook Air 11" Intel i5 which is meant for word processing and web browsing. Thus it is now too small screen size and unefficient for Full HD Gopro video editing.

Preferred brand : Asus, Lenovo, HP
Budget : Below RM3k
Usage : Full HD Amateur Video Editing, may be gaming later
Wishes for    : Full HD IPS display of at least 15.6" size, non-glared display, Bluray writer, Hybrid drive

After much research, I have much liked Asus N551ZU-DM022H - http://www.lazada.com.my/asus-n551zu-dm022...ok-1448098.html

It is an AMD processor and Radeon GPU, with a spare RAM slot for upgrade.

Please comment / advise.

1. Preferred Brand : any
2. Budget : 4.5k n below
3. Usage : Gaming
4. Preferred laptop/screen size : Less than 16"

Asus G551JM DM017H RM4,399  15” FHD i7 4720Q 2.6GHz 8GB 1TB 8GB GTX960 4GB WIN 8.1
Lenovo Y50-70 2223 RM4,239  15"UHD  i7 4720Q 2.6GHz 16GB 1TB  GTX 960 4GB WIN 8.1

which one is worth more? or any other contenders?

I'm travelling abroad most of the time. Afraid it would be a problem if there's anything wrong.
