Dear Sifus,

Kindly need recommendation for Gaming Laptop

1. Preferred brand : Illegear (Specifically Z7)

Already did some research but I cant gather much information about this brand and their reputation. Is there any specific reason not to buy or need to buy from them?

2. Budget : 7k below

3. Usage : Heavy Gaming, Heavy browsing

4. Screen Size : strictly 17"

5. Other:

-Excellent after-sale services
-gtx1060
-16gb ram

Remarks:

- I can wait for 2-3 month to make the purchase as my current laptop working well. Should I wait for 8th gen?

- Currently Illegear having massive sale with 256gb ssd free. end 31st March (Main reason Im rooting for Illegear Z7).

-Second choice MSI GE73VR (But cost more than Illegear)

Please help me Sifus. I welcome any comment, critics, suggestion, recommendation.

illegear are good especially their after-sale services, should not be a worry.
there's no big difference in between 7th vs 8th gen for gaming.

Hi guys, I've been a desktop user since the beginning of time with barely any laptop experience. My last laptop was a 2013 Macbook which has been gathering dust for the last 3+ years and the one before that was a Fujitsu lappie that went with me to uni back in 2002. Looking to get a cheapish laptop that'll be used for mostly work and a bit of gaming thrown in.

1. Preferred brand : No particular preference
2. Budget : Below 2k, preferably around the 1.5k mark
3. Usage : Work (word processing), internet browsing with a bit of gaming thrown in (Civ 5, Ark, CS:GO - graphics can be potato quality)
4. Screen Size : >11" preferably
