Ah i didnt know the hard disk can impact battery size. Hows the battery performance for the 515?

But anyway 1tb ssd is pushing my budget too high already . Its already really high.

But is it worth the 4k?
*
you can just add another 128gb ssd... and buy another 1tb sdd separately (around RM 550 - 600 now)... pros and cons...you'll have 128GB ssd sticks unused (if you cannot sell it off)...

This is the option w a caddy and a smaller 60Wh battery....but the mainboard connectors are the same/identical....

Remove the caddy and you can fit 2 M.2s....

So is this mean for 1650 setup not worth to get 144?
Other than gaming, will 144 benefit normal day or office usage?
*
More importantly pixel response time....fast mouse movements/scrolling less blurring. Being 144Hz...the response time would have to be 6.94s or lower....
