payroll and some stock file..
multiple file will be open at 1 time.
and also publisher..

im try to looking for quad core laptop..
*
Then u can look for y400 or y500 wif 4th gen quad core

Or some old stocks 3rd gen

Millions of ringgit involves in calculation? 5th gen no quad core yet

then u no need FHD laugh.gif mostly dual core will.. more core doesnt mean all those core will be useable while we do computing.. excel stuff and lots of  other computing.

For instance, a dual core processor may have base clock speeds of 3.5 GHz for each processor while a quad core processor may only run at 3.0GHz. Just looking at a single core on each of them, the dual core processor will be able to about fourteen percent faster than on the quad core. Thus, if you have a program that is only single threaded, the dual core processor is actually better. Then again, if you have something that can use all four processors such as video transcoding, then the quad core processor will actually be about seventy percent faster than that dual core processor.

For the most part, having a higher core count processor is generally a good thing but it is a very complicated matter. For the most part, a dual core or quad core processor is going to be more than enough power for a basic computer user. The majority of consumers will see no tangible benefits from going beyond four processor cores currently as there is so little software that can take advantage of it.The only people that should consider such high core count processors are those going tasks such as desktop video editing or complicated science and math programs.

well, I guess his explanation clear my misconception..
I think i just need to pump more ram instead of more core of cpu for multifile loading..

thx for ur suggestion. thumbup.gif

And SSD if you are loading big file (If you have the fund). It will load your excel files significantly faster. smile.gif

Ulv processor not Design for heavy multitasking so if normal multitasking still ok.. n u need a SSD..

I suggest u look for spec like this

i7-4700mq/HQ or i7-3740qm(not sure bout 3630qm)
8GB ram
256SSD
660m above would be enuf

Spend more on SSD better

Forget to mention dual core oso hv M n H Which better for ur work

okay..
for SSD,
does it mean that i only can put solely SSD and no HDD?
it will be very costly if solely SSD..

unless it got another slot for me to slot in HDD..

But i guess most 14" laptop don have this support right?

nod.gif yup.. + SSD... since ssd is a bit expensive.. u might want look for hybrid hdd. such as mSata HDD. improve read/write of da prog and speed up open and close apps. something like dat... some notebook have hybrid hdd.. nod.gif just like Lenovo Yoga 2 have 500GB + 16GB SSHD. and Yoga 3 have hybrid 500gb.
Lenovo Flex 2 15.6ā€ FHD Touch , i7-4510U - 8GB ram - 1TB + 8GB MSSD - GT840M 2G -W8.1 : RM2850+/-

If the laptop have an optical drive. You can use a caddy to add in SSD. If not save up and get one tongue.gif or Hybrid drives

for hybrid drive..

the ssd part only so small portion..
does it really significantly better than normal hdd??
since 8gb cant even install OS on it & not all application able to fit inside it..

i doubt it will give significant performance improvement.

The SSD in the hybrid acts like a big cache which boost speed. You are not going to install OS into it.

As you are using it, it will store the most frequent use files on the SSD cache which will be your windows files and frequent used programs.

I agree wif u... coz I hv 32GB msata SSD for cache.. still slow.. the main HDD is using normal 5400rpm...

Get 128SSD if ur budget not enuf for 250

im willing to spend for SSD, but the problem is
if i only can pick either SSD or HDD..
I guess HDD gonna be my choice..

unless there is a laptop provide both SSD and HDD slot for us..
well,
it might be in my wishlist.. laugh.gif

M.2 sata is generally faster compared to standard size SSD. If i'm not mistaken because of the port speed.

I did for my Fren. Aw14 swap out the optical drive n put SSD to boot.. very smooth even he hv to million of amount.. cheapest solutions for dual hard drive
