Geforce 940mx and AMD m430, which one is better?
I know 940mx is better on gaming, but how about movie?

1. nice

2. Ah, I see. So you wouldn't recommend the 7820hk? I was thinking about it because the capability to oc might be useful in the future if I want it to last longer and be up-to-date.

3. Is the colour that bad compared to IPS? Or does the smoothness make up for the colour drop? And what about the thing about not being able to hit 120fps anyway

4. hmmm, I'll have to physically compare myself to make a decision. I have a 15.6" asus n550jv that weighs 2.6kg, and I thought that that's the biggest and heaviest laptop I'll ever go for. I'll have to see how much bigger and heavier a 17.3" laptop is

5. I've definitely seen that written somewhere else before, on a forum or something. Regardless, I think the point still stands, the price drop is due to the shorter battery life and smaller build which somehow leads to less performance or something like that, right?

I know about illegear, I've customized one too many laptops on their website, from 8k 1060 laptop to 11k i7-7820hk gtx 1070 laptop.

Anyway, thank you for your input!
GE62 (15.6" model) has gtx 1070; MSI Malaysia page, NCS online store, and 11street page lists it as having 1070, at only 8.8k compared to other brands/models that have 1070 laptop for considerably more.

Why would GT series cost so much more than GE? Quite weary about making a purchase on a GE for the same specs at lower price... Regardless of the weight, I think the asus isn't very aesthetically pleasing. Illegear with same size/weight however looks more sleek and not just for gaming. My personal opinion. Anyway thank you

Need help   

1. Preferred brand : HP, Asus, Dell, others
2. Budget : below RM3k
3. Usage : normal office + browsing + streaming 1080p + No need gaming (occasional face-book type games)

1. Preferred brand : any
2. Budget : 3-4k+-
3. Usage : programming (visual studio) [no dedicated gfx is fine, as long smooth running VS and code development]
4. Screen Size : 14" and above

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?
