Surveying on a decent laptop that can play the latest football games like PES 2019, FIFA 2019 smoothly. Been out of touch of the GPU nowadays. laugh.gif

1. Budget : Max 4k

2. Usage : gaming (PES 2019), Dying Light, State of Decay 2, FFX, PUBG

3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) :
- Display size: 15 inches.

- Weight : does not matter
- Brand: No preference, as long as warranty coverage is good
- Processor: i5 is ok, but if possible i7

you may try to search for below model if do not mind about the weight

lenovo ideapad 330 15IKB, it comes with i5, may top up around rm100 for your max budget

acer aspire 5 i3 version fits your budget

it is not recommended to go for second hand/used

Low end laptops have much lower quality

not to say lower quality, but you get what you pay.

for me i think better buying a new to get at least 2 years warranty rather than used unit, i assume the quality and lifespan is way longer/better than used unit? if used unit also I don think you can get a decent quality laptop with that budget price.

just my opinion la..cause it takes time to get a decent 2nd hand unit with good price hmm.gif

btw mate, how you define the quality of the laptop first? refer to the online review or?
