hi guys, need help on choosing the right laptop cuz its gonna be for the long run and in limited budget.

Preferred Brand - Any
2. Budget - below RM2000 or can add abit more
3. Usage - for studies, mostly architecture related work: sketchup, Autocad, photoshop, any on high ram software for better multitasking.
4. Preferred - best bank for your buck under rm 2k ? long lasting and not heat easily

thanks guys, pls comment/review.

Then get a gaming laptop, their price almost as low as 2k for some. Laptop nowdays(as I know of) max only 4GBx2=8GB. Some got built-in RAM so can't upgrade much. Plus all laptop heat or no heat are the same, all will heat up if you use it after some time even smartphone also same.

Dun touch Lenovo coz their sales team like zombies...

ya found too much sales on lenovo, how bout Asus A456U-RWX018T?

is there different if buying new an old model of i5-6th intel gen model? seeing different on price point.

7th gen all DDR 4 ready

how low price you want ?

rm1500

that Y400 have better specs... has quad mobile processr.. just add ram.. 8gb min...

can consider this

Acer Aspire E5-475G-525V 14" i5-6200U, 4GB, 1TB, NV 940MX, W10H
the issue is 4gb is min ram for win10. need streatch a bit for ram.

multiple thread? then should close another 1.

Hi for your requirement on those high end needs...
I know this does not fit your budget but you should consider a workstation I mean... for those software you really need some power to drive on, also spending more $ on a workstation also means better chance to use your PC for longer time.

Check out the link HERE.

For CPU, U series are possibly not be able to support any architecture software that you use tho. U processor performance is less than M series... as they are designed for low energy consumption.
So in conclusion you either consider a higher end M series, or a NVIDIA quadro

hi TS

just a quick question.
You need the said laptop for your assignment work or do you need it to do CAD works?

As knew, it is very hardly to get a laptop below RM2K that use for AutoCAD design, bcos this software required high performance graphic card.

First one .
3630m can rival 6700hq .

Dont ever buy U processor for engineering or drawing software .

3630m can rival 6700hq? do you mind to share more?

Sure .

http://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare.php?cm...&cmp%5B%5D=2586

Less than 5% difference .

U forget the laptop is a whole machine.. ram , ssd etc..

My 3740qm already can't compete wif 6700..how can 3630

GL552 vs Gl62 GTX960M T.T
Video editing , dota 2 , other mid gaming like gta 5 etc
Hope sifus can reply and help this helpless guy .. It's been 3 months alrdy OMG !!!!

The helpless guy is u ?

To fussy, cheap budget, no target.... Lasttime i work and study and get myself a HP 2.6k laptop and use it for the whole study and even work and it last me 8 year. Then i consider upgrade, Worth it!! Some time TS asked for the sake or asking not really buying.
