Looking for gaming laptop:

1. Preferably ASUS Rog/MSI

2. Budget 3.5~4k

3. Usage - Gaming, watching HD videos

4. Preferably 15" FHD screen, 8gbs of ram, low fan noise when under stress, able to play most games at high resolution (not including fallout 4)
Thank you in advance for your suggestion smile.gif
*
most MSI gaming latops dont have a good noise system emission especially when under stress
meanwhile Asus ROG brand are expensive not worthy for their spec they offered at that high price and most of them dont comes with 8gb ram though
if you dont care about those things and still want those brand
Asus ROG GL552V Intel i7-6700HQ, 4GB DDR4 RAM, Nvidia GTX 950M 2GB, 1TB SATA HDD, 15.6" IPS FHD RM3.9k
MSI GP62 6QE Intel i7-6700HQ, 4GB DDR4 RAM, Nvidia GTX 950M 2GB, 1TB SATA HDD, 15.6" IPS FHD RM4k

and if you care about spec more than brand for gaming purpose, take a look at this laptop
much better than those two laptops i suggest above

Hi all sifu,

Need some help ony advising what laptop to get.

Preferred laptop specs:
1. Preferred Brand - Any

2. Budget - below RM3k (RM2.5k best)

3. Usage - gaming(tree of Savior, team fortress 2, left4dead 2) ; able to run solidworks(or similar software) smoothly

4. Preferred
a) good performance
b) lightweight(might need travel every weekend, <2kg will do)
c) 8gb ram
d) upgradable HDD/ssd slot

A very big thanks in advance for any reply.. smile.gif

I see, not a big problem, thanks for your advice too! But can this be upgraded to 8gb RAM as well? And could it be downsize to 512gb +- for HDD?

I know Dell website can customize but I'm not familiar with Asus product, can they do the same thing?

yeah you can upgrade the ram and downgrade the hdd
i dont think you can buy from their official website hmm.gif
