Guys what you think of this. Compare to the one above.
*
Get Y7000 SE with 9750H, 16GB RAM, 1TB HDD+1TB SSD, 144Hz, 1660Ti (price increase of 2060 doesn't seem worth it, however it's your choice) with DUIT or LENXCIMB code. Best bang for buck right now
QUOTE(tawaubata @ Sep 28 2019, 03:30 PM)
hello there, i need some suggestion based on my criteria:

-RM2500 starter (might add up to 1k++ if reasonable), can be purchase locally or online.
*
1650 models under RM3.6k:
Lenovo Legion Y7000 SE customize with DUIT or LENXCIMB code
Lenovo Legion Y540 81SY00AJMJ / Legion Y7000 SE 81T0001HMJ
Level51 Forge 15 (need RM100 discount - are you a student?)
Illegear Raven SE / Raven

Both codes have same discount on Y540 / Y7000 SE
QUOTE(keah.kyle @ Sep 28 2019, 07:47 PM)
Do you think RM410 to upgrade to 2060 worth it?
*
I would say yes, but I prefer a RM200-300 increase

Bad news, Lenovo just revise the accessory price for Y7000 SE, No more RM1 item.....
But, it is still the best deal to choose if compare with Y540.

Hi, may I know if the Lenovo ADP (Accidental Damage Protection) is a good addition, or it is not necessary to get? Coz 2 Years ADP will cost RM399, if select the 2Y Premium Care.
*
Which model? As long as you take good care of the laptop ADP isn't needed tbh
QUOTE(Sitting Duck @ Oct 1 2019, 11:10 AM)
Does it really take that long for Lenovo to ship out? 4-6 weeks?

Which model?

from 2500k now my budget might go up to 4.7k  rclxub.gif

Just stick to options below 3.6k I suggested earlier
QUOTE(UnknownMy @ Oct 2 2019, 08:45 AM)
Not sure if I need 1TB SSD though (since got 1TB HDD), but I do agree that getting a laptop with the spec above for only RM4.7k (eCoupon applied) is definite best value thumbup.gif
*
The 1TB SSD upgrade is 200 something which is no brainer. Definitely worth it

not more than 3.5k? less would be even better. i put the witcher 3 as that would be the only sort of demanding game that i would play. would not prefer illegear as im not from kl/pj. so any issue with the laptop would be kinda hassle for me to deal with them.
*
Decent gaming laptops only with 1650 in this price range (1650 is slower than 1060), unless you want to spend up to RM4k

Lenovo Legion Y7000 customize / Y540 customize, use code LENXCIMB
If you don't want to wait: Lenovo Legion Y7000 SE 81T0001HMJ / Y540 15 81SY00AJMJ

Those big brand such as MSI, Asus , would not lend him review unit one, as you can see he always blast about their model QA + QC quality.  biggrin.gif

haha true also, anyway I'm just telling the truth (I have contact with one MSI ex marketing guy btw)
QUOTE(steevan1000 @ Oct 8 2019, 04:43 PM)
big brands scare getting bad review  biggrin.gif  no wonder cant get any

true
QUOTE(yks8845 @ Oct 8 2019, 05:54 PM)
if you look for those , better you seek for famous youtuber video, pages such as notebookcheck, laptopmedia, the verge, and trustedreviews etc, more reliable source then here to be honestly
*
I only trust Notebookcheck and Ultrabookreview. Maybe Laptopmedia. However their reviews aren't perfect either

For YT: Jarrod'sTech, Bob of All Trades and Ownordisown. Maybe Mobiletechreview. Dave Lee isn't that good

Lenovo website mention ship within 6-8 weeks.
But for my case, just 5 days after placing order, they already prepare to ship out my laptop. I was quite surprise that Lenovo production line suddenly become so efficient  shocking.gif  shocking.gif  shocking.gif

Btw, for the RM1 bag & mouse, I think the Lenovo rep did not add for me as promised, she also not reply my email... doh.gif  shakehead.gif

6-8 weeks is just estimation I think, but Lenovo seldom that efficient lol

got scammed aldy lol?

much apologies.

would guess so. the shop mentioned that the ram is undervolt or low voltage.

Any reliable source or shop you recommend?

LP RAM is it?

Usually I prefer DIY so I'm not sure about this

Mr. ZM Fong,

Greetings.

What is your take on Eluktronics? in terms of built quality as I am interested in their Mech-17 laptop.
*
Are you buying in US? Mech-17 is basically same as Illegear's Selenite. I have a short review on it
