Hi guys.
Can someone recommend me a laptop that:

1. Lightweight
2. Good specs for online (browser, streaming, programming, MS Office, games like The Sims 4 and less GPU dependent)
3. Not too big..
4. Price around MYR5,000 at most. Or any better options (mind to add up)

I wanted to buy a macbook, but I am not familiar with Apple since I have been using Windows since forever.

for your requirement i suggest Dell XPS 13 price at RM5k
-weight around 1.2kg
-good for all your needs
-screen size is 13 inch so the size are not too big
-sleek design

if you intended to play other games which required a quite demanding gpu power, can consider Dell Vostro 14 V5459 price at RM3.5k or Acer TravelMate P6 TMP645 price at RM4.5k

Thank you for your suggestions.

i5 iGPU can handle any MMORPG with medium setting though? Or AAA games with medium - high settings?

I'd prefer 6th gen processor for better future proof though..

Anyway I'd appreciate this biggrin.gif

Hi sifus

I need some insights from sifus here for this model, just wondering if the price tag is okay for my uses of the ultrabook.

Dell XPS 15 9530 (4k display) - MYR 7,999 from official Dell.

Will use for:-
1. Medium gaming (no AAA games) - I play dota, lol, mmorpg, some steam games

2. Game recording and video rendering / editing

3. Internet browsing and streaming

4. Needs to be portable and lightweight, gonna bring it to outside and also acts my main machine at home

5. Battery life is not important as I'll be plugging in most of the time

These are the main reasons why I am eyeing for xps15.

The other reasons will be like, the 4k display, the famous dell ips display, and weigh about less than 2kg or so.

I am debating with myself whether to go for a normal PC rig due to its price tag..

Any suggestions will do..

Thank you sifus icon_rolleyes.gif
