Selenite Pro is a thin and light with good battery life (usually more expensive for this kind of gaming laptop), in fact it weights about the same with Forge 15 Pro despite being 17 inch. Moreover, it has magnesium alloy build compared to plastic and it has TB3 (which adds money also)

Thanks sensei. I'm really looking forward to read your selenite pro review. In fact I check on your blog every few hours so that I can make a decision soon haha

Hi may i ask should i get an illegear raven se or lenovo y540. Planning to go for 15 9300h and gtx 1650 and 8gb ram but the one at illegear 16gb is free. Which one should i get? I dont really care about the look or battery life. Mostly on performance wise.

Haha thanks. The review will be delayed as Illegear don't have review unit for now (out of stock)
What's your max budget? Open to other options?

Hmm probably around rm4000. Sure!

Maximum i can is rm4500

Would suggest getting 1660Ti, better price to performance compared to 1650

Commandos Glock 5 Plus (i5-9400,1660Ti,16GB,512GB,144Hz)
Level51 Forge 15 Elite: 120Hz low sRGB ~15ms
Lenovo Legion Y540 15 customize (i5,1660Ti,8GB,1TB+512GB,144Hz): add another 8GB RAM later
Lenovo Legion Y7000SE customize (i5,1660Ti,16GB,1TB+512GB,144Hz,2x2 WIFI)

I just found out that they do not have 2060 ready stock too, it will only be available in April. I guess I have to buy the 2070 model tmr. Thank you sensei for your help

No problem, you're welcome

Okok will take all that into considerstion

Hi guys which asus laptop from the 15.6 inch range is the slimmest but has a cool black design and decent specs?

- priority for movies, casual gaming and office work

Any Zephyrus? But first must it be Asus

Any thoughts for MSI GF63 thin series?

Very mediocre (build,cooling), avoid

my current model is the N56V7 asus model which i purchased back in 2013... so its time for an upgrade
and yes i prefer to stick with asus seeing as my current model made it this far with HEAVY wear tear and usage
zephyrus.... g14 and g15 right ?

Asus laptop quality nowadays is meh

Wait for reviews if you want G14/G15

I see u mostly listing lenovo Y540 in ur listing. What is the reason? And what differentiates it with MSI GF63?

decent, can get discounted price

there are other good options as well

GF63 has mediocre build quality and cooling

I have the same general priorities as this.

One part of me wants a Thinkpad E590 but it lacks backlit keyboard, then one part of me wants to do some casual gaming on it. Another part of me thought of the repairability of the laptop.

I'm inclined with Y530 due to my budget <RM3,100.
Also Illegear Raven SE (but availability of parts would be an issue as I live "overseas".

I absolutely dislike red accented keyboards. A very difficult decision to make.

As a matter of fact, I would forgo good graphics for laptop repairability and build quality without a gaugy design. I plan on using it for a long time (more of a media content consumer than a gamer).

Hi ZM Fong, between Y540 and Y7000SE, which one in your opinion is a better choice?

Or should we wait for Zephyrus G14 if the price range is magically around 4k-ish
