Hi, guys.
I'm looking for some advice regarding my next laptop purchase. I've been looking around the net these past few days and have decided to either buy the Lenovo Y530 or Dell G3.
These two laptops meet the requirements that I need, which are 8th gen i5/i7, GTX 1050ti and a muted/non-gamer look.
Question is, which one is the better purchase? Which one is better for some light gaming, considering thermals, performance, etc. ?
My budget can go up to RM 4k only (with lower being better, if not necessary). I will also consider other laptops/brands as long as they meet my requirements.

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Oct 28 2018, 07:39 PM) G3 has worse cooling. However, CFL-H laptops generally run hot, therefore some tweaks must be made If you want to buy Y530, customize online will have more options but also slightly expensive (1050/1050TI models). If you're a student, you can get 15% student discount Also consider Illegear Raven (TongFang GI5CN5E), Commandos Glock 5 (Clevo NB50TK1) The Commandos laptop has definitely caught my attention. May I know which one you are referring to since there are several Glock 5's on the website? Also, in your opinion, is the laptop of good quality (well built, sturdy, etc. )? I'm looking for a laptop that will last me for at least 3 years. I can't seem to find much review online about them. And what about the warranty support? Is it any good from TechArmory? I've no previous experience with them. |

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Oct 28 2018, 08:59 PM) All are the same model, just different spec. BTW it uses desktop CPU NB50TK1 is the successor of W650KK1 which is a popular budget option offered by Eluktronics (not in Malaysia). This model is fine, no major flaws. Build quality and cooling are alright, although they aren't 'excellent'. That's why it's a 'budget' option. Warranty from Clevo resellers should be good. I heard good things about the support from Tech Armory (ArmoryX), though myself never have experience before. Alright. I believe that's all I needed to know for now before making my decision. Thanks a lot, man. You've been a great help. |
