Hi sifus,
Looking to buy a gaming laptop for work and games. Been reading some reviews and shortlisted this Legion 5. Found this pricing and specs on Shopee: Ryzen 7 4800 GTX 2060 512gb ssd 2x8gb ram Dolby vision screen - 100% srgb RM5,700 + Free Gift Lenovo 32in Gaming Monitor and Backpack Is it worth it or any other better suggestion? Or it is advisable to wait for the new Ryzen 5000 + GTX 30 series combo? Thanks all.. |

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Feb 18 2021, 09:39 AM) if you want the monitor then quite worth how long u can wait?  Just wondering if the new 5000 series + RTX 30 can be bought at the same price, can last me longer haha. |

Normally can the issue be fixed through driver update? Still may take some time right?

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Feb 18 2021, 05:11 PM) this is hardware level issue so not sure AMD can fix or not Ahh i see. So now may be the time to buy those 4000 series then as they are considered stable.Price wise do you reckon they will drop further when the 5000 series is launched here? |

QUOTE(Xflkekw @ Feb 23 2021, 08:53 PM) Just a quick question, can't I modify the NVME SSD configurations in Legion 5 to be 128GB and 1TB respectively? When I select 1TB for the first disk drive, the second is automatically fixed at 1TB as well. Hi Bro i think u have 2 choices here: https://www.lenovo.com/my/en/p/82B1CTO1WWEN...essageFlag=true 1. get 1 SSD with dummy drive - but stick with 60wh battery 2. get 2 SSD - the battery fitted will be 80wh. Unless you really wanted gaming spec SSD, the SSD price lenovo provided is quite fair i think. Getting a bigger battery out from factory may be a good choice  Just my 2 cents haha |

Hi guys.
Any views on latest Asus ROG Strict G17 (713) and Scar 17 (733)? Price difference is only RM500 (for the higher spec one). In this price, any other models worth considering? |

Price diff isn't much but the scar just offer abit more, mechanical keyboard, better speakers, etc.Planning to get the Asus ROG Strix Scar 17 instead of Asus ROG Strix G17 because of its 32 GB ram compare to G17 16GB ram Is it worth the price or upgrade? And how these laptop's performance and thermal? Any review or opinion? Thank you Wanting to hear some advice. Or is there any alternatives to these. nanabasiang liked this post

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Mar 5 2021, 08:50 AM) Asus ROG G713Q-RHG075T I see. Thanks alot. Guess we need to be abit patient and wait for other brands as well hahaG733 not worth IMO, G713Q-RHG075T has better value decent but need manual higher fan speed or max fan speed currently there aren't options to choose from, even Gxx3Q series isn't the best choice imo |
