Yeah fully aware that luck's a big part of it unfortunately. The illegear onyx seems potentially worth spending on - I gather this is a small-ish company? Do you have any experience with their builds + customer service? I will likely be using whichever laptop I get in Singapore too for extended periods, don't want to get caught out not being able to service it under warranty if needed.
Also I don't suppose there are ultrabooks that would have similar specs as the ones you've listed? I've looked at the ones on Asus' website and can't seem to find any of their zenbooks or vivobooks that have similar specs.

Try aftershock w-15 lite . Extend warranty to 3 years .

Sorry for my lack of details. I must have been half asleep.

I belive that anything not 8th gen is not worth it since I'm buying new. When buying new, I expect the latest components.
I also belive that anything below i3 for laptops is useless and i5/i7 would make laptop louder since they will heat up more.
The heat reason is also why I hate dedicated grpahics in laptops.

I also should have added that I'm looking for a touchscreen FHD laptop with at least an i3 processor. AMD equivalent also ok.

yeap read on lowyat website, speculated around May too..

wonder how much the price will be?
dont wanna get a y530 now with 1060 if in May the 2060 will be coming and not much of a price difference (say around 500 or so more from current y530 1060 price).

2060 is said to be better than a 1070 right.. dang.. dilemma now..

should i just get a temporary laptop instead?

Lenovo y540 will be alienware price range if it comes with rtx . It only will be cheaper if there is new gtx .Just get the 530 .

A quick question to you guys. What will be the recommended model or spec to go for a budget laptop below RM2.5K?

I was thinking either to try out the AMD Ryzen 2600 or 8th Gen i5 8600 series processor?

A quick reply for you as well

First of all ryzen 2600 and i5 8600 wasn't a series . They are model .

2nd i5 8600 doesn't exist . And if it exist it will be desktop processor that will not exist in normal laptop .

3rd i5 8600k alone will cost more than rm1200 which left no more budget for your build .
