Thanks saitama. How much does it cost? How about asus?

One punch go to Dell Malaysia to find out. GTX960M 4Gb standard across the range. Inspiron 15" gaming one. ASUS ROG you mean? I think G552 if not mistaken GTX960M with around RM4399. Not very sure tho. Acer then look for V Nitro. If you're looking at DOS unit. Then more choices.

Then perhaps you go to this thread and check out all available gaming laptop price around. https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3753380

Not every laptop perfect especially you're looking at gtx960m is just like entry level of gaming laptop. You need to choose which feature is more important to you.

Hey, I came here from V26 and realized there is no format displayed in this version so I got this from V26:

1. Brand: No preference. But May I ask why is it nvidia GPUs seem to be so popular in laptops while AMD is so so rare?
2. Budget: Below 4k
3. Usage: Word processing, browsing, CAD programs eg. Solidworks, Casual gaming eg. Dota2, CSGO, Rust
4. Screen size: 15-16" range (fullHD)

Thanks!

Dell Inspiron 15.6'' 7559 RM3999 Nvidia GeForce GTX960M. I not very sure about AMD but seem like they are hardly catching up.

Thanks but is there competitive flavors from the likes of other brands like asus and msi? Not looking for brands just like to see what other options I have heh.

On the Dell website it just says Inspiron 15 7000 series with the one you mentioned being the 8GB RAM config. Where does it say its a 7559? Unfamiliar with laptop naming conventions here  icon_question.gif

Thanks!

If other brand, the price might be higher than 4K like the Acer V Nitro, Asus ROG G552 and etc. You can check out the price list here https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3753380 for all the available gaming laptop.

I initially also blur with that but you can look for the 15'' with red colour dell word model for gaming series. Haha. RM3999 that one.

Looking for a laptop. Any recommendation?

1. Preferred Brand: any brand
2. Budget: <4K
3. Usage: Work and gaming.
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 14" or 15"
5. Other preference:

    It will be replacement laptop. My current laptop is company provided, specs are in my sig.(ACER V-Nitro).
I already handed my 1 month job-change notice to company. and they denied my request to buy that laptop from them.

I got used to fast laptop and really good performance, so I dont think when changing to new company I can get that same feeling. prefer if that laptop have dual slot (meaning ssd+hdd), no dvd also can.

Perhaps this one? http://www.dell.com/my/p/inspiron-15-7559-...-15-7559-laptop
Dell 15 7000 series. RM3999 with GTX960M 4Gb, 15.6". Not very sure about the SSD slot, it come with hybrid.

Or you're already used to Acer why dont look back their new V Nitro series. http://www.acer.com.my/ac/en/MY/content/series/aspirevnitro

1. Any good after sales warranty(at least 2 years) brand (Owned a 7447 1080p HD i7 but sold due to small screen size and low performance GPU)
2. Budget RM4.8k below
3. Usage solely ultra setting gaming without monitor
4. Preferences : Bigger than 15" screen MUST IPS Display, bigger the better, at least 960m GPU, at least core i5 latest generation CPU, long battery life, good cooling system, future proof ( at least 3 years).

its battery can't be simply removed right? Need to unscrew which is quite inconvenient for long hour gamer.

When you gonna do long hours of graphic intensive gaming, it's better to take out the battery. As temperature is the key factor which will deteriorate the battery life. It's still can remove but just need more effort. Haha

Is it worth to buy i7 4200 GTX970m RM5k instead of RM3.3k i5 6300HQ GTX960m?
I will not be playing games at over 1080P (won't play on external 4k monitor), most of the games i play are in ultra setting. I prefer high FPS when gaming. is the RM1.7k really worth it to upgrade the specs of the laptop? Games like GTA 5 Ass. Creed Batman Fallout ETC.
*
Lol, you're asking for ultra yet high FPS of course GTX970M can perform better than GTX960M. Performance benchmark is more than 60%.

Dear Shifuu,

Can I know is there any shop offers 24months 0% EPP? Looking for a mid-range gaming Laptop* 3k-4k (not really game alot :-P). So far comparing Asus K501UB, Dell 7559, Illegear Z5.
*I know Illegear offers a 24 months 0% EPP, but that budget is a little high for me  sweat.gif

THANKS!
*
Dell did provide 1 year 0% if you refer from the website. Yes Illegear also provide that but also subjected to bank surcharge, let's say you're taking 24 months is 7% interest of the amount you want to take installment. Example: RM4000 total, you paid advanced/downpayment RM500, RM3500 you want to take loan, 3.5x0.07/24 is the amount you need to pay for 24 months. Not too sure about Asus tho. But Illegear is having CNY promo, tho is kind of expensive, or you can look into Z5 Haswell 960M.

rclxms.gif Thanks for that biggrin.gif Let see if anyone can advice for the ASUS K501UB, really looking into that keke..
Besides, how about HP Pavillion 15-ak032TX? Doesnt see much recommendation on this Im wondering if you know the downsides of this laptop? Like cooling systems or noise? Well if just looking at the specs, I can tell it is quite a good one too. Btw one of the use of these laptop for me are graphic rendering *Just a beginner one* tongue.gif Wonder if it works well?
*
The price of HP Pavillion 15-ak032TX only come with GTX950M, with almost or slightly higher price like Dell 7559 you can get a 4Gb GTX960M.
You can refer the first page of this thread to check out all the gaming laptop spec and price. https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3753380
