Forgive me for my mistake, here's the one in correct format. 1. Preferred Brand = Asus (looking at k501ub) 2. Budget = rm3.5k (k501ub = rm 3299 + 8gb ram upgrade) 3. Usage = coding + gaming (diablo 3, dota 2, csgo, maple) + light video editing 4. (a) Preferred laptop screen size = 15.3" (b) Preferred weight = 2kg (k501ub - portability so i bring my work around) Question. 1. Would it be smarter to get older generation of processor at better prices for better performance and better gpu? Asus k501ub only has two cores and nvidia 940m. 2. Does anyone know if Asus k501ub has m.2 slot for ssd? On Asus Global site it says available but Malaysia version only hdd available. If using same motherboard m.2 should be there as well right? Would like to add an additional ssd myself. Better u email Asus Malaysia n ask.. N 8gb ram maximum rm200. Dun get cheat

you need a laptop with IPS screen panel for color accuracy
but please dont expect the color accuracy would be powerful like macbook for that budget

and you have to add a little bit of money to get IPS screen

Really interested in Z7 but also curious about Pascal. EDIT: Sorry, realised I should've merged with my previous post. Yes.. Heavy gaming only 970m n 980m... Rest is moderate gaming U can oso consider inspiron 7559 i7 uhd. Rm4999 2yr pro support, gtx 960m Rog gl552vx Pascal is good if u use graphic amplifier.. Tat saves alot.. But not sure compatible to pascal slot or not.. Hvnt study bout it

Usage: Stock trading, MS office:outlook emailing and excel files, Reading, Online surfing, movies, maybe some games(1 title/year, if at all) Will usually multitask and have about 7-10 programs and 15-20 tabs open in chrome at any 1 time. - Maybe RAM important? 4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 14'. PLanning to have a separate monitor and use as a desktop 5. if possible have an Nvidia graphic card but definitely not a priority. (Is this important for watching 4k movies?) 6. SSD is important but can i upgrade separately to save cost ? 7. Reliability is quite important 8. I can wait so if there is any new model coming out that is worthwhile i definitely can wait for it Thank you in advance for all sifu recomendation Latitude e7440 i7, e7450 i5
