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. |

Alienware 2015 quite screw up.. 2014 Alienware hv better cooling than the new 1.. 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? |

Thanks for all the replies, but sorry to have caused an argument. The reason why I wanted it with UHD was that this could be my laptop for the next 3-4 years, so in the future I could play UHD contents like movies etc on it. And also, not sure if it's true, read that if I downscale the screen to 1080p the screen will display 1080p things a bit sharper compared to normal 1080p screens?
Also about the GPU, how much of a difference it is comparing GTX960m to GTX970m? RM800 difference over the two. Right now I'm probably down to two. Illegear Z5 & Asus G551JM. Haven't seen Cyberforge yet. Other models doesn't come up to specs. |

QUOTE(AthrunIJ @ Jul 24 2015, 12:01 AM) 970m is around ~64 percent more performance compared to 960m. I see, the Illegear Z5 with 970m, RM4999, worth it?You might encounter black bars if you downscale to fullhd from uhd. |

QUOTE(Cellius @ Jul 24 2015, 05:04 PM) Hi guys, I wanted to ask for my brother on gaming laptop. What do you mean by December?1. Preferred brand: none 2. Budget: 4000 - 5000 3. Usage: Mostly gaming 4. Preferred laptop size: 15" - 17" I was looking at illegear and MSI GE Series GE70 Apache Pro-681. Was wondering which is better, or any alternative recommendations. I prefer the laptop to be light, and probably good cooling as well. I have one question: 1. If I were getting illegear, I can only get it on December, will there be any new gaming laptop release? Thanks for the help Was thinking if getting the Z5 with 970m soon. August or latest, September |
