1. Preferred Brand : Lenovo, ASUS ( can recommend other brands too except Acer )
2. Budget : RM2500+- (below 3k)
3. Usage : Mostly long hour heavy gaming and watching movies. (main games would be Dota 2, CS:GO and soon-to-be released games like batman Arkham knight, the Witcher 3 etc, smooth fps in low graphic is enough)
4. Preferred laptop/screen size : at least 14inch

actually average how long can a normal laptop last ? my old laptop have been like 2-3 years and now its facing this problem : https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3576323/all

although I sent for repair and the repairman sticked it back, it only lasted about 2 weeks and I think if still keep crack open my laptop will rip soon.
should I just get a new one like the inspiron 7447 ?

Need some help here. Is Nvidia GTX 850M better than GTX 950M ? I tried to check the benchmark performance on notebookcheck but some games are higher fps in 850M and vice versa.

Pls check whether it is ddr3 or ddr5 version. I think the difference is very little.

LPPL but 950m save more energy lo... gtx 850m ddr3 almost no different wif gt 750m unless u do benchmark

In the same memory, 950m beats 850m.
Make sure to see whether it is ddr3 or ddr5.

It's NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 950M with 2GB/4GB DDR3 VRAM

3. usage: mainly gaming (have to be able to play Batman Arkham Knight or newer games at least in low-medium graphic quality with smooth framerate)
4. Preferred laptop: has seperate headset jack and microphone jack (not the typical combo jack which can only plug in the headset jack)
5. Screen size : any

I'll post a new one since my last post had wrong info.
1. Preferred brand - any except acer
2. Budget - RM4k-5k
3. usage: mainly gaming (have to be able to play Batman Arkham Knight or newer games at least in low-medium graphic quality with smooth framerate)
4. Preferred laptop: gtx970 if available, also has seperate headset jack and microphone jack (not the typical combo jack which can only plug in the headset jack) because my headset is not USB type, otherwise my mic need use laptop's
5. Screen size : at least 15"

the only thing that worried me is the combo jack... my headset needs a headset jack and a mic jack... if I use those sound splitter or usb sound card thingy, my mic output will have like buzzing sound or stuttering issues etc. problem is gaming headset with combo jack seems rare. did you know any by any chance?
