Ahhh psps tongue.gif Didn't realise i put the + which lead to the wrong way

Alright thanks for the suggestion there!

TBH, after so many years, i only bought Asus/Lenovo Laptop, i am kinda biased towards other brand perhaps because when i am young, i uses my Dad's Sony , Mum's Acer and all seems slowwwwww.

Is Acer and HP actually good? I don't have good impression on these brand  bangwall.gif

Now doing fine on their gaming / high end models. no worry , warranty coverage also fine.

Thanks Bro.... what is your advice between this and ASUS VivoBook S15 S510UN. I don't mind the extra few hundred gram weight to change for a 15' inch display. Your opinion?

Asus laptop no onsite warranty. the battery life shorter
pros : can upgrade ram, bigger screen size

1. Preferred brand : None
2. Budget : 2000-2400 (Max after GST)
3. Usage : Needs to be lightweight, Office Work, Programming, No Gaming
4. Screen Size : Prefer 15inch (Non touchscreen)

Extra note : I dont care about the GPU. A good CPU with decent ram is enough for work usage. Buying for father. Backlit keyboard is a plus.

1. Preferred brand : none
2. Budget : below 4k, max 4.5k
3. Usage : AutoCAD, games, movies
4. Screen Size : 10" oso can if it performs great!  biggrin.gif
5. BIOS : accessible if possible

I'm thinking of replacing my aging VAIO, opening up a small sized autoCAD file is taking ages to load, not to mention random crashes here and there  mad.gif

Prefer an above average performing speaker, and a decent screen would be a plus.

Thanks in advance for those suggesting!!!  notworthy.gif

1. Preferred brand : Dell, others also can..
2. Budget : Below 2.5k
3. Usage : HDMI to TV for movie/ drama, basic Word/ Excel + Printing and web surfing.
4. Screen Size : 15"

Lets say if future I want to upgrade to a 4k TV, does it means that the GPU has to squeeze enough juice to support?

*Plus if it's light and has a good cooling/ ventilation system.

Thanks in advance!!

if its a 15 " display laptop, how light you wanna it to be ? below 1.5kg ? biggrin.gif

ok,

but since you want connect to 4k TV, make sure the model you look at has display port / hdmi port that can output 4k display
