Any gaming laptop below 3.5k range?

Just saw Y40, any ideas?

y40 gt bad heat issue.. not really recommend..

either you get y50 with gtx960m or, asus g series. but 15". if you want 14" dell 7447 is quite good enuf.. max dota 2 and can do 3D rendering very well.. rm2999

Latest 7447 is gtx 850m sad.gif, Just can't decide which. But like you mentioned in earlier post, a lot people buy asus, so sure got complains bad after sales service. The acer i used when i bought was 4 years ago, no probs at all. but that time people complain acer after sales service really bad as well.
Got any experience you can share with both of this?

Hi Sifus, I checked out the review pandera and searched on the website.
Both Dell 7447 and ROG GL552 have their own flaws. No idea which is more severe, any advice? OR any other laptop recommendation around the same price?

Thank you.

pandera, the RM 3074 for GL552 price, any recommendation which seller to go to?
By the way, whats the difference between DM014H and DM174H?

Also What does M.2 Slot allow you to do? Does it let you run a SSD and HDD together?

M.2 SSD is just another variant for connection. And is good for laptop because it is small size.

Not entirely true.

Not necessary m.2 ssd only used as a cache. As long as you configure it properly and motherboard supports it. You can get a 512 gb m.2 ssd and use it as the main drive and/or with a hdd as secondary drive.

Oh i see, so a m2 ssd can act like a ssd working together with a HDD..
Whats the Difference between DM014 and DM 174? their specs looks exactly the same.

Also, there is this screen flickering on GL552 im hearing about, is this serious?
Is it on malaysian models?

Any other laptop recommendations? I kinda have the same requirement as maxteoh. Need it for work and D2 .

Yup, i saw lol. isnt 100% brightness too much for the eye. haha, IF G551 fixes this issue, then maybe can consider, like 400 difference only.
Then my natural thought would be, for 3.5k , maybe there is other laptops worth it? Any recommendation? haha
