Is it worth to buy i7 4200 GTX970m RM5k instead of RM3.3k i5 6300HQ GTX960m?
I will not be playing games at over 1080P (won't play on external 4k monitor), most of the games i play are in ultra setting. I prefer high FPS when gaming. is the RM1.7k really worth it to upgrade the specs of the laptop? Games like GTA 5 Ass. Creed Batman Fallout ETC.

Last time I wanted a high end laptop, but somehow I think that it is not necessary to do so. Because I'm thinking bout <insert some word> soon.

1. Preferred Brand: Not a brandfag. Just prefer brand with superb warranty policy
2. Budget: MYR 3k if possible
3. Usage:
- Dual Boot (Windows + Ubuntu)
- VMWare (Windows + Redhat Server)
- Embedded Linux / Embedded C Projects
- Digital Design projects (VHDL or Verilog)
- Circuit Design Softwares (ORCAD PCSpice / Proteus)
- Rasp-Pi development
- Dota2 and CSGO only
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 15"
5. Other preference:
- Intel + Nvidia combo. Not into AMD since I already have an AMD combo desktop at my hometown
- 8gb x 2 RAM. VMWare kills lots of RAM
- Preloaded with original Windows. #SupportOriginal

Thanks for recommendation.
I just got the same recommendation from fellow user @hamjun0225 also for Illegear Z5

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Just wondering, based on my requirements it is more recommended to get that Illegear over that MSI?
*
yes of coz.. msi aftersales no where near illegear.. FYI illegear warranty service very close to DELL grade...which is the top notch..

the only different is they dun hv nationwide onsite server

Hello! Am posting here after using and loving the Lenovo Y480. Time to upgrade/change!

1. Preferred Brand: I'm fairly comfortable with Lenovo/Dell, but any brand with superb warranty policy/reliable tech support will do
2. Budget: <RM3000
3. Usage:
- Dual Boot (Windows + Ubuntu)
- BATTERY LIFE!
- Schoolwork consists of a fair bit of creative work and word processing.
- Back-lit keyboard will be awesome
- Good speakers (loud and clear)
- Keyboard/touchpad experience important
- I've quit gaming, unlikely to touch one so heavy graphic performance is not so important
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: <17"
5. Other preference:
- I'm thinking of IBM Lenovo Thinkpads, if possible please recommend specific model
- No touch screen if possible
- Build quality also important

Is Dell Inspiron 7559 good enough for moderate gaming (like Fallout 4)?
I was also considering Lenovo Y700.

I had the Acer Nitro Black edition before. The overall build was sturdy for me(premium).
The cooling is also nice (never experienced thermal throttling even in high gpu load, in a 25-30 room temp)
But the coating I the frame (edges) is easily scraped. You can actually see the metal frame underneath the coating.

Same comment with Lenovo. The build quality is a total let down.
I only consider it when I'm really on a budget constraint.  sweat.gif

U r so kind.. i rather buy used than Lenovo.. totally disappointment .. everyday i pray for extra money for me to replace my lousy vibe x2

Personally, I think that Apple macbook pro is better than the dell xps15. The screen and keyboard made the difference. The keyboard on the mac is more comfortable for the long run. brows.gif

for graphical works.. mac os better lo.. but the heat issue still persist in mac till now rite...both ultrabook not suitable for intense graphic card for me.... too easy hot liao
