I am considering to buy a laptop around RM3k. I have done some survey on the laptop. Could you guys recommend me which laptop to choose for among below three laptop? Or you guys have other recommendations as well. I put in Asus TUF FX505G because I am thinking to play Dota 2 or its better to buy a PC to play Dota 2 and exclude Asus TUF FX505G from the list.

1) Lenovo Ideapad 530S
2) Asus Vivobook S14
3) Asus TUF FX505G

Absolute max budget? Usage? Any preference on weight, battery life and display size?

Maximum budget is RM3k after discount/promo and I do not need any free give. Usage is for working (need use Autocad software), web surfing, movie and only play Dota 2 (maximum 2 hours per day for Dota). No preference on weight and battery life. Display size I would prefer 14 inch will do as I would connect the laptop with desktop monitor with HDMI cable.

It's a Clevo N850 which isn't that great

Since you prefer regular laptop more, here are the good models with MX150 GPU:
Lenovo Ideapad 530s 14 81EU00NRMJ / NSMJ / NTMJ / NUMJ
Acer Swift 3 SF314-54G-52L8 / 59WJ +RAM
Acer Swift 3 SF315-51G-55UH / 56T6 - non-upgradable RAM
Acer Aspire 5 A615-51G-53QF +RAM+SSD - 1 yr warranty only
HP Pavilion 15-CS0033TX / 15-CS1026TX +RAM+SSD - short battery life

In case you want gaming laptop, you can refer to my gaming laptop list (note that prices aren't up to date)

I have made up my mind to choose between this two. Which one would you guys choose?

1)ASUS VIVOBOOK S15 S530U-NBQ328T
2)HP Pavilion 15-CS1026TX
