Hi can i have some recommendations ? 1. Budget : 3.5k-4.5k(RM) 2. Usage : -for light gaming(i dont play much games), and my FYP project(deep learning/artificial intelligence) 3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : -Display Size: 15" is sufficient -Preferable 6 hours so that i do not need to bring my ac charger -Weight: 1.5kg - 2.5kg -RAM: 8GB and above -Graphics: Nvidia GTX 10 series -Processor: i7-8xxxH I have one laptop in my mind which is Lenovo Legion Y530 with GTX 1050Ti. Would love to hear more opinions and suggestions in case i can get better deals. Thanks in advance! p.s. no macbook This post has been edited by issac96: May 22 2019, 03:27 PM

QUOTE(prasys @ May 22 2019, 07:18 PM) Probably can opt for 1070/1060 laptop. I think ZF can help better 1050Ti is pretty weak for ML . Your FYP is for undergrad i presume , if so 1050Ti is fine , you don't need ultra powerful GPU to do it... Yeah it's for undergrad. Yup I don't plan to buy ultra powerful one, but 1070/1060 laptops are quite expensive isn't it ?

How does it hold up ? Is it good ? Can it tahan for a few years ?
