Asus K401U	Intel i5-6200U, 4GB DDR3 RAM, Nvidia GT 940M 2GB, 1TB SATA HDD, 14" FHD, 1.65KG	RM2.6k
HP Pavilion 14-al019TX	Intel i5-6200U, 4GB DDR4 RAM, Nvidia GT 940MX 2GB, 1TB SATA HDD, 14" HD, 1.58KG	RM2.6k

but people kept saying 940m isnt a gaming gfx card......? will it be able to hold upcoming fifa series? 17, 18, 19 huhuhuhu

mid or low shouldnt be a problem...wat really sounds crazy is intel iris pro claimed it equal to gtx 960m

Thanks for the recommendation,

any ideas if there's a lightweight laptop which have GTX 970 M or higher?

or is it just a dream

Lightweight gaming laptop that is less than 2kg? AW 13 or MSI GS40

But quite expensive la

Dell v5459 ??

fifa not really a game that need some beefy graphic card to run it smoothly
even using intel hd also that game can run but with low setting
unless you talking about graphic intensive games like the witcher 3 and some other AAA games then you need minimum gtx 960m to play with acceptable framerate

the lightest i can think of is msi then come asus rog.. the heaviest should be alienware...clevo oem i no idea bout the weight

Hi there thanks for having this forum for ppl like me.

Here's my criteria:

1. Budget : 2-3K
2. Type: Hybrid 2 in 1, or anything with screen folding back to make it like tablet.
3. Screen type and size: 12 inches to 14 inches. Touch Screen enabled.
4. OS: Windows
5. Chip preference: i5, do not mind M chip to save energy hence longer battery life.
6. Main functions: Office work, Multimedia eg. Full HD Video, youtube viewing. Preference will be given to those which has Dorking station if possible, to connect to office keyboard, mouse and Screen.
7. Not used for : definitely no gaming, unless its those simple ones.
8. Memory : No big files storage, so SSD of >100G would be sufficient.


IT Fair is on its way, so would like to have a short list of what I can get. Thank you very much for the help in advance.

Edited: add More flexible screen size requirement and SSD preference.

2. Budget 3k below
3. Usage strictly for work (excel, word, etc.), mild gaming like csgo, dota2 for me to play
4. Light to medium weight, not too bulky till can't fit in slingbag

Thanks a lot
