What about the screen,? since i am looking for a high srgb variant, the only option is 144hz screen, right? If i am not mistaken models with that screen cost 4k plus.  Does the 60 hz panel have good colour accuracy, i keep asking lenovo online customer service, they don't seem to know either.

PM me, I'll guide you to pick options

Bro ZM Fong, just wanna say thank you over your pro tip recommendation

After much deliberation, ordered the Lenovo Legion Y540 with 9th gen intel cpu, RTX 2060 and 16gb of ram

When I received it, I loved the aesthetics (not too gamery like the ones from ASUS or MSI), no thermal throttling issues (so far) and performance was great overall

You're welcome! Glad that you enjoyed it

By the way, besides purchasing the laptops, gaming laptops esp, what cooling pad you recommend that we should purchase together?
The other thread on cooling seems to 'promote' undervolting, thermal paste and stuff which I am not too keen to apply on the new laptop.
*
cooling pad is a waste of money imo...if you want a good one need to spend 100-200...meanwhile repaste+undervolt cost way lesser

Just lift the bottom with something (eg book), free and easy

Unfortunately I don't think there's a decent model under 3.2k with international warranty

Acer Nitro 5 AN515-43-R9B3 has 1 yr international but specs are a bit weak
Dell G7 7588 (i5+1050) has 2 yr premium support (including international) but again, specs a bit weak
Asus has global warranty but FX series sucks, also their warranty service sucks

Sifu ZM Fong, any idea how's the thermal performance of the recently released Illegear Raven SE-R?

haven't test out
QUOTE(leonmagnus90 @ Aug 27 2019, 02:37 PM)
Also did you do some real life thermal testing on the Helios 300 2019 variant?
*
no, but the cooling is good in the new model

Btw do you know if the screen is g-sync enabled?

Y540 doesn't have GSYNC but has MUX switch. If you want GSYNC need to get Y740
