Usually I will warn this if you want to buy Asus

Taken from SuugestALaptop:
"Generally, however, most ASUS units have a lot of quality control issues or don't last very long in an optimal state, and ASUS support is generally quite incompetent"

Bad cooling, build quality feels cheap etc. Also read this:

Actually the cooling is very similar to Slate-15 (same chassis), CPU cooling is slightly worse due to less 1 heatpipe. Gaming should be OK. Of course you can use max fans if you want best thermals

Which is your recommend slate 15 or forge 15 pro

Personally I feel the list will help me more if its list by price.

Highest to lowest.

So that a buyer with say 7000 budget can look up this list and immediately zoom in on a few units that he should focus/research on.

I would find price to be more of a determinant than which chip it uses etc...

problem is ... price is always changing and unless somebody codes a program with an alogirthms that scans all the major ecomence platforms daily for the best prices excluding the obvious scams, it is very unfessible to list by price.

Actually if you look closely, most of the sections are sorted based on lowest to highest price. Prices will keep changing too so I can't update everyday

Anyway, I will take your suggestion into consideration

Totally understand prices fluctuates (especially so for IT related stuff) so its going to be too much work to continuously update it.

If it could be a list say for Jun.

1. xxxx @ RM8000
2. xxxx @ RM7500
3.
4.
5. xxxx @ RM5500
etc

So someone who come in they can see.. top is 8k, mid is 5k... if his budget is 5k, he will probably zoom in on say # 6~8.. the list's positioning will not jump around too much, #6 on the pricey list will not suddenly jump to #1... so the positioning of the list will be fairly stable and you shouldnt need to keep updating/move it around too much.

Ofcourse once I zoom into the few items within my budget I will search further for the "current" price... so this list will help greatly in pointing me to the right direction as the laptop market can be HUGE and intimidating..

Anyway, thanks for doing this list, its mighty helpful thumbsup.gif

great thread!
i was on a 13 hour flight sitting next to this young man who took out what seemed like a gaming laptop.
good thing there was a power outlet on the seats, he was playing video games the whole flight!
very envious.

Hi,

I am looking at HP Gaming Pavilion 15-dk0010tx and HP Gaming Pavilion 15-dk0011tx.

https://store.hp.com/my-en/default/laptops-...ets/gaming.html

I don't see it in the recommendation list. So perhaps can shine some lights? Whether what kind of downside these HP laptop are having?
