not good... 64bit Windows on 2GB RAM... you will easily lag the hell out when Windows Update is running, moreover its Windows 10 we are talking about
Webcam...

other specs should be ok as long as you don't do gaming, the gpu is very outdated and underpowered...

I think you better up your budget is a more viable option...

Can stretch to 1.3k.

I'm kinda in dilemma right now. Looking some sifu-sifu advises and my criterias as below:

1. Main purpose: Office usage (no gaming at all)
2. Preferred Brand - HP only(because company is a HP house)
3. Budget - RM3K
4. Usage - Outlook(10GB email), Chrome(max 10 tabs), Words and Paint. These programs will be running concurrently.
5. Preferred: 13-14 inches + lightweight

Basically, I have shortlisted to two HP models but not sure if there is any better options:

1) HP Envy 13-D066TU
i3-6100U, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD and 13.3 FHD IPS display

2) HP ProBook 440 G3
i5-6200U, 4GB RAM(able to upgrade), 500GB SATA and 14' HD display

The main different above is the i3/i5 and SATA/SSD. I'm not sure to choose SSD > CPU or CPU > SSD. My personal opinion is that SSD would be better option however the CPU only i3 would could be a huge bottleneck too. Based on my usage, what's the recommended model?

Thank you sekalian!

HP 14-am064TU	Intel Celeron N3060, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 500GB SATA HDD, 14" HD, 1.9KG	RM1.1k
Lenovo Ideapad 100	Intel i3-5005U, 2GB DDR3 RAM, 500GB SATA HDD, 14" HD, DOS, 1.9KG	RM1.3k

elitebook... older version.. more suitable for office use

even though i3 is sufficient for all your needs, you also can try top up a little bit take hp envy with i5 that also comes with ssd

HP ENVY 13-d044TU

Intel i5-6200U, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 128GB SSD, 13.3" IPS QHD, 1.36KG

RM3.3k

Hello, wanna ask for recommendation for light and good quality notebooks. Budget 3k-5k. Its for my mom work/office use. Screen size 13-14" . If possible ultrabook with ssd with sufficient ram for smooth usage and fast boot

Please give me a few choices. Thank you

Hi Sifus,

Need your final input to make my decision on my options below. Have read thru the recommendations here and the following models meets my requirements.

Acer Aspire E5-575G
Acer F5-573G-52QJ

question :
1. i am not a hardcore gamer but i do play Online MMORPG for long periods of time (3-4+ hours), is there any heat problems with the 2 models on prolonged gaming?
2. how big of difference will it make with SSD and without SSD on gaming.

Inspiron 7359/7348

Latitude e7450/7470

Asus ZENBOOK UX305CA	Intel m3-6Y30, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 128GB SSD, 13.3" FHD, 1.2KG	RM2.8k
Lenovo Ideapad 710S	Intel i5-6200U, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 128GB SSD, 13.3" IPS FHD, 1.2KG	RM3.2k
HP ENVY 13-d044TU	Intel i5-6200U, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 128GB SSD, 13.3" IPS QHD, 1.36KG	RM3.3k
Acer Aspire S 13	Intel i5-6200U, 8GB DDR3 RAM, Intel HD, 256 GB SSD, 13.3" IPS FHD, 1.42KG	RM3.4k
Dell XPS13	Intel i5-6200U, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 128GB SSD, 13.3" FHD AG, 1.26KG	RM5K

every laptop that you use to play game on it has heat problems if use it for long session gaming
just use the laptop cooler to overcome heat problem.
the only difference with ssd and without ssd on gaming is the loading time where it's little bit faster to load game with ssd, other than that pretty much same with hdd.
