Hey i found the two laptop model which is aspire 5 52g i5 8260 with fhd ips screen 15.6 inch and ideapal 320s 14, this two kind of model enable to upgrade the ram and ssd from pro active shop in lowyat but i not sure can upgrade with pci nmve and nvme sata or not btw this two model would u recommended for me to using around 2 or 4 years above ?

How can i take care the laptop with pcie nvme or nvme sata ssd ?

Can u recommended the ssd and ram brand which is stable and not eaaily to get faulty under rm 400 below for me ?  or i just straight away upgrade to  samsung ssd ?

And the ram can install with any kind of brand  ? Because based on my experience on desktop should choose with the same specific of ram and same brand of ram like kingston only can mix with kingston
 
And i also i have read some review which is the laptop shop free to help u install with cheat ssd and ram that is not reliable because most of them they want u to get faulty easiliy in order to charge me with extra fees like repair the ssd and ram or the maintance fees. How i can avoid with this kind of threat for me ?

There's no NVMe SATA, either NVMe or SATA. For normal users it doesn't really matter

How to take care? Write less and take care of the temp (especially controller in NVMe SSD)

RAM is RAM, any brand will do, just need to match timings and frequency, need to match capacity and number of chips+sides if you want dual channel

How much you want to spend on SSD alone?

Buy the upgrades yourself and do the upgrades on your own, it's not that hard

1. Kingston A1000 x2 PCIe NVMe 240GB. Actually SATA SSD is enough but this model is pretty good and quite cheap

2. See what I said above for RAM matching

3. Depends on which model. Sorry but I don't understand your question

4. No such thing, as long as you didn't break anything you're fine

Is this laptop worth buying for ?

Mainly i just used it for Lightroom/PS , occasionally Premiere Pro. No Gaming ( May be Yes . after buying this laptop , but not really interested into gaming.

i am not gonna bring my laptop around always , so my first choice of more on performance cpu ( Intel H Series) gaming laptop, it might last me for 3-5 years ( i am not a professional photographer, just travel 3 times per year and shoot a lot of photos which made me realise my cheap plug 4th generation i3 cpu and pretty used amd 2gb which cost me RM 1500 last time)



I will upgrade the RAM and add on SSD and extra monitor (in future).

Budget RM 3k - 3.5k ( exclude RAM and SSD upgrade) .

ANY RECOMMENDATION EXCEPT THIS ONE.

Looking for a notebook this black friday sale too.

Any recommendation? Budget around 3k.

Use it for simple work only. Maybe light gaming, but if needed i would sacrifice graphic card performance for better cpu.

Need SSD and 16gb ram.

Thanks

Looking for a laptop for video editing, microsoft office, watch movie with budget around 3 to 4k. Any recommendation? Prefer 13 inch.

Was looking at Macbook Pro Retina 13" 2015 base model. Kinda suits my needs but still it's 2015.
