Hey there sifus. Need a recommendation for birthday gift purpose.

Budget: <rm2600
Brand: no preference
Use: Internet, watching movies, Microsoft PowerPoint & word
Form factor: 2 in 1
Screen size: no preference

Please kindly lend me your expertise. Many thanks!

Inspiron 11..

Dear all masters,

i am using a HP DV6 6001-TX since 2011-Aug, recently there is some problem with my laptop fan (it always pop up message saying that my fan going to kaput soon), i thinking of buying a new laptop which able to do some decent gaming.

Budget: <RM 4,700
Brand: no preference but prefer better cooling as my dv6 mobo burnt once before
Use: Internet, torrent and heavy download, watching movies, some gaming, photoshop and 3d rendering as hobby
Screen size: prefer something larger or equivalent to 15.6"

recently i saw there is a promotion(free upgrade to 16gb ram) going on with illegear. Kind of interested in the Q5 model. Not a fan of Z5 960 variant as there is no promotion for this, while Z5 970 variant has burst my budget.

As ppl said that Z5 cooling is miles better than Q5, so, i am wondering is Q5 still worth it? as i prefer to have a durable laptop which can last quite some time (>4 years) after some gaming and 3d rendering.

Or is there any other brand would you all recommend?

In addition, can anyone tell me a trustworthy shop which i can bring my HP laptop for a replacement on the fan and able to get it back on the same day?

Hey guys, how is the UX305CA's performance? I'm interested to get it and am looking for cheapest option now =D

get the core m5y1 version minimum...

You mean the M5y71 version?
I was planning on getting the newer 6Y30 with better graphics..

m6y30 slower than i3.. not really worth it

the i5 rm3999 only

My budget RM3k only actually .

Was looking at UX305CA 5Y71 with HD5300 or UX305CA 6Y30 with HD515. Both same price, both with 256GB SSD and 8GB DDR3.

Of course if top up to RM3800 can get UX305CA, i5 6200U with HD520, but I felt the screen and form factor of the UX305CA to be better... And, if i'm gonna go for this form factor, I could just go Singapore and get the UX303UB which is same but with 940M instead for SGD1300 before GST claim.

Hmmm is there any other similar laptops for below RM3500 that is also below 1.4/1.5kg?

Mayb Inspiron 7348... plenty of money left after add ssd

7568 slightly over weight.. but ngam ngam 3500 after add ssd

Inspiron 7348 too heavy . I prefer slim type laptop .

7348 1.5kg only wo.....tat 1 hdd sumore.. ssd should be 1.4kg

Really? I checked notebookcheck it says 1.6+kg. Let me check again =D. Thanks for the recommendation bro.

If this doesn't work out, I most prob will go for the ux305ua i5 version as you recommended too

7348/7349 can flip.. or u hv fon to trade in? i hv xps 13 i5 wan sell at cost price

Hi bro, what kind of phone? I have 2x Note 4, a spoilt Xperia Z and a brand new unopened 3D printer that I can offer up for trade lol
