Hey there sifu,

1. Preferred brand : any
2. Budget : 4.5k+
3. Usage : programming, and gaming (only dota2 though)
4. Screen Size : 15.6" and above

Remarks:
Been asking around, Aver VX 15 seems like a good choice but a seller told me the second batch, screens are changing to TN panel rather than IPS panel. Dell has nice specs but crappy TN panel. Lenovo y520 seems like a good choice, with nice build quality mentioned by some and durability i guess. Illegear has some nice offer with free upgrade to 8gb ram on their q5 evo, but im paying 4.4k for i5 spec while for the same price, acer is offering i7 spec.

What say you?

Pls go check out real life action gaming TN panel Vs low end IPS..See which 1 u will prefer...60hz 4ms fhd IPS i will pass for gaming...My u2713hm qhd IPS lose to se2417hg gaming monitor wider view angle doesn't help u when gaming..

Ur budget very decent and dota 2 dun need super high GPU.. would suggest u go for vostro 5458 i7 + a good external monitor if u wan better experience..

QUOTE(boon213 @ Apr 4 2017, 11:35 AM)
hmm... even with the same specs as high end gaming laptops, (i7 7700hq and gtx 1070), being in the entry level series means its doesnt perform as well, has lower battery life, has bad cooling or what? Thank you for helping me sort of understand what kind of series/level it's on, but does that mean it won't perform as well as a gt with the same 7700hq cpu and 1070 gpu? Or is it the build quality and other factors of the gt that make it more expensive (and higher level)?
2. Haha, what I mean by that is maybe in the future when games get more cpu intensive and require faster cpu to run comfortably, or in any other future situation where I might need higher clock speed, I have the option to oc the hk cpu, and thus wont have to buy new laptop with faster cpu. In all honesty I don't know a lot about oc and whether or not I need it, this is just my thought. But, if you're convincing me that 7700hq is just fine, then good la, I don't have to pay so much for hk cpu  biggrin.gif  so you sure 7700hq is enough, hk is overkill?

3. hmm... again, I think I have to compare in-store to really decide IPS and TN. To you, personally, smoothness (refresh rate difference) more important than colour accuracy right? That's why 120hz tn > 60hz ips. It's just a personal dilemma that I can't really seem to settle on. The illegear s5 has a 60hz ips option (standard price) and 120hz 5ms tn option for additional rm449. Can't seem to decide  unsure.gif

4. I think you're referring to the MSI question right? Point no 5? Hmm, I think all things considered I really have to think about investing in the mid range GE laptop... it seems the price is too good for its specs. Battery life shouldnt be too much of a problem because like I mentioned this will be more of a desktop replacer, so it will remain plugged in on the table.
Thank you for the suggestion. I've seen the 502, very nice, slim and light, but I think I've decided on a 1070 card (which the 502 doesn't have an option for).
