Hey guys I'm looking for a laptop for doing office work and light gaming. I'm looking at those ultrabooks kind of laptops but my budget doesn't really allow me to get one of those. sad.gif
prefer one with international warranty as I'll be stationed overseas for quite some period of time.

1.Preferred Brand: Any.
2. Budget: below 2.5k
3. Usage: word processing, light gaming
4. Processor: any
5. GPU: good enough for dota

I would need a laptop that is light, comes with about max 14" screen and durable. Something along the lines of UX305 or Macbook Air

I'm looking at Asus A455LF, any other recommendations?

2. Budget: ~ 3.5k
3. Usage: gaming

Dell 7559 is the best pick for ur needs. u can do a clean install of OS if u worry about spyware.
If u ve extra budget, Lenovo Y700 & Cyberforge G15 also a good choice. G15 can upgrade to GTX965m Ti. brows.gif

Hi All,

need recommendation to buy a gaming laptop.

Budget is 5k to 6K.

Hope to get 60 fps with the upcoming Total War Warhammer. I do DOTA too but i guess if my benchmark is Total War, then DOTA shouldnt be a problem. also planning to play games like Witcher 3.

Other usage is for work. Need a laptop so i can do presentation (powerpoint) to clients.

Ive been lurking here to do research and so far the best bet are Z5 or Z7. But are there any other recommendation that comes with 980m with my (5-6k) budget? otherwise lowest is with 970M.

Thanks.

The cooling designs for similar slimmer laptop (ie S15EV) with GTX970m~GTX980m (TDP 75W~100W) normally is better than those (ie GS60) with GTX960m~GTX970m (TDP 65W~75W).
During full stress, S15EV palm rest is comfortable and surface temp is lower than GS60 with similar powerful spec in slim chassis.

Hi Hi need recommendation for animation student (๑꒪▿꒪)*

Any recommendation?

1. Preferred Brand: ASUS or MSI (strictly no macbook)
2. Budget: 3.8K - 4k max!
3. Usage: maya, zbrush, photoshop, gaming (ark survival, sims 3 20 ep + sp), RENDERING capability!
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 15" - 17"
5. Other preference:
> ram 4gb is enough , will upgrade separately in the future
> HDD + SSD (1TB + 128GB SSD)
> minimum spec is about i7 6700HQ + Nvidia GTX950m ++ series.

actually i like one laptop spec, but the pricing need my organS,
but i'm not that willing to sacrifice my organS for it :V

the laptop model and name is

ROG GL752VW-T4146T
Intel® CoreTM i7-6700HQ Processor
NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX960M with 4GB DDR5
17.3” Full HD (1920x1080)
4GB DDR4
1TB HDD
RM4,399

too bad it lack the SSD and the price is a little over my budget.

and i heard that MSI is also not bad,
capable with rendering and animations needs

just that, i not too well known of msi series.

so any recommendation from sifu ;D

i really hope to have the spec above (the ROG one)
just within my budget and some of my needs/preference ;D

thank you for reading to this point !
hope someone help q_q
