Budget: RM4000 below Screen size: 14 - 15" GPU: Dedicated Brand: Anything except Acer & Asus Need to replace my current 3 yr old HP Folio13 work laptop, which is slowly dying So basically I need something of a hybrid between gaming laptop and work laptop a good dedicated graphic card to run recent games decently with at least medium setting, and doesn't have a look of a gaming laptop  as I still need to use it for work presentation and such...  So far I saw one fit my req: Dell Inspiron 15 7000 series, but it's very heavy at 2.5kg :sweats: anything you guys here can recommend?  thanks in advance

Good day to all the SIFUs here.
I am currently looking at my Macbook Pro 13" replacement. Been using it for 2 years for work and Dota 2 but really don't like it. Now thinking of switching back to Windows.
My basic requirement:
1) For work + gaming (only Dota 2) + Minor Photoshop/Illustrator/Video Editing 2) Preferably SSD 256GB 3) 8GB RAM 4) NVIDIA GPU 5) Screen Size 13" and above 6) Battery life MUST BE on par with my MacBook Pro, 4-5 hours WIFI at least. 7) NO Optical drive 8) Decent build quality, doesn't have to be like MacBook but at least not that plastic feel. 9) Less than 2KG
My budget is RM4000 - RM4500.
Need your humble recommendation.
Thanks.
