I'm going to college soon and I'm planning to buy a laptop for me to use in the future.
This will be my first time buying a laptop so I hope nothing mess up with the laptop.
My budget for the laptop is RM3k. Can go slightly higher to RM3.5k max. Don't wanna spend too much on it.
I will be using it for assignments and some gaming for games like FIFA online, CS GO, Maplestory and some other recent games like GTA V, Far Cry, Battlefield etc on low to mid settings.
I don't have a preferred brand but what I heard from my friend is brands like ASUS and Acer make good laptops.
Don't have a preferred screen size too but as long as it is not too small for watching videos and gaming should be fine.
Hope you guys can help me with this as PC Fair is around the corner and I hope to buy it during the fair.
Any advice and recommendations are welcomed.
Thanks a lot guys

asus hv good quality but bad service... acer only nitro n predator boleh pakai.. other range all rubbish bin grade (personal opinion)

ur budget i can find u inspiron 5459 i7 de

or save half budget n get inspiron 14r 5437 touch i5.. rm1850 only

ASUS k501 u can put into consideration

FYI dell hv best warranty service overall

Heard they repair or replace faulty one with refurbished parts right ?

Actually depends on parts of.. old model of coz giv refurbished parts.. all brand like tat..

acer predator looks nice but out of your budget
think all the brands will be available during the fair, go & have a look then!

i don't think asus has good build quality . my asus laptop hinge gt sound not even 1 year . But , i believe that the cooling system is good

agreed , old model sometimes difficult to find new parts , refurbished parts is the best option

Acer should be good.

3k can get good one..

recommend you to MSI GL62 6QD, this model c/w i7 CPU, Nvidia GTX950M 2GB DDR5, 4GB DDR4, 1TB HDD, 15.6" Full HD (1920x1080) with anti-glare, built in Steel series KB, with Nahimic audio enhancer, built in M.2 SSD slot (can upgrade in future). Only cost RM3,799.00.

Dude, I was in the same position a few months back. I got the dell inspiron 14 5459. I7 with 8gb ram. 3100. Gaming is quite okay. Multitasking. Having 5 or 6 desktops with 5 windows each. No lag at all. Battery is good. Can last me 1 whole day in uni. Don't have to carry adapter. Also it's 2kg. So carrying is easy. Dell has excellent warranty.

if u buy for yr assignment and some gaming u can refer to the MSI as below,the price abit higher than yr budget.
MSI GL62 6QD - RM3799
MSI GL62 6QF-825 - RM3999

my opinion Acer charging always got charging problem.
Use Acer brand laptop for several years both also charging problem after 1year ++.
Now wanted to buy a new laptop won't consider Acer looking for Dell or HP.

dont get lenovo
