hi sifus, currently got my eyes on these 2:
Ideapad 100-14IBD - i5 5200/4gb/128gb ssd Ideapad 300-14ISK - i5-6200/4gb /1TB/ATIM330
Any advice on which one to get - SSD vs 6th gen i5, or any better option at that price range ~RM2k?
main usage is just some surfing, document editing, movie and light gaming (nba 2k)
thanks in advance!
