Hi Sifus,
I'm looking for a laptop to do the following

1. Brand: Any brand (good after sales service)

2. Budget: Prefer 4k max (but can extend)

3. Specs: Web Surfing, Gaming, Movie, Torrent, machine learning/data mining.

4. Size: 14"-15"

5. Dedicated GPU, i5 at least with SSD. For this, do people normally buy a laptop with mechanical drive and change to SSD? Something like this (this one has mechanical, the rest very decent but if possible looking for one that has Nvidia GTX 960 (not mandatory but at least have GTX 950) and SSD build in without having to go through the trouble of exchanging HDD later): link

Lenovo Y50-70 5134 series is looking really appealing to me but the CPU is 4th gen, any expert advice or suggeestions on this? Thanks so much in advance.

Look no further, Inspiron 7559 i5, after convert to ssd still got budget left..

1. Preferred Brand: any brand
2. Budget: <=2.5K
3. Usage: UBS, microsoft office, movie, non-gaming, browsing
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 15"
5. Other preference : currently looking at Asus A556 & Lenovo IP300. Looking for more/better option.

woah that's a nice one, btw how's dell's after sales service? i forgot to mention, need to have at least 8GB of RAM & i dont really care about screen size, i suppose add 100-200 for that...good one. thanks...

if dell after sales is bad.. those all other brand can close down de... haha

that's good to hear:) btw, do you happen to know of any variant that doesn't have touchscreen (unecessary cost adder which is of no use to me haha)?

the 1 within ur budget got no touch screen... only the highest spec uhd 1 hv touch screen

oh got confused....hahaha, thanks so much, pretty much done deal with this!:) have a nice day ahead:D
