Based on Clevo N850 chassis. That model runs hot and it has OKish overall quality.

Cooling pad isn't a good solution. You need undervolt CPU+GPU, repaste (preferably LM) and cut some intake vents.

Quanta and Clevo are ODMs, they are the 'real' manufacturers so no problem on build quality. In fact Alienware laptops are manufactured by Quanta

... Acer, brother, Epson, samsung, fuji, benq, gigabyte... etc.. etc..

Just a heads up though, RM4000 can get you Helios 300 with 1060 6gb. Best bang for your buck ever



For gaming laptop, GPU is king. 1050 ti 4GB and Core i5 is a good combo.

It's at RM3299 right now.

That includes SSD, 8GB RAM etc, basically full spec one. Laser focused on the gaming power per money.

If you want a familiar brand with a little bit lower performance but the same bang for your buck, consider getting :

-Acer nitro 5 with Ryzen 5 2500U and 560x 4GB = RM3399
Same SSD, almost full spec, just need to add 4GB of RAM.

Good performance and a familiar brand. Pretty good alternative, even though, it's an Acer.

sure gpu is king.. but i scare the built quality is bad.. playing PUBG 20min and auto shutdown.. overheating..
acer nitro already in malaysia?
edit: cpu and gpu in thunderobot seems more powerful than acer nitro 5

no BSOD (blue screen) error message..

i think overheating was impossible as i was just browsing in google chrome..

it just freeze with sound playing Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz... (while watching youtube)

shop gave me option to send back to its place for repairs or i try clean install/reset this laptop..

he said probably to ram/gpu/bios or what so ever relating to hardware problem..

so i will try to reset/clean install first and see how it goes..

this laptop is pre-loaded .. lots of bloatware.. or whatsoever..

CPU Usage is very high when i gaming.. is this really normal for an i5 7300HQ ? ..

i play dota 2 with recommended setting all core / processor is spiking 90% +/- CPU USAGE..
