at last i bought the Y540 (i5-9300H, 8gb ram, 1660ti, 256gb m2 + 1tb hdisk, 144hz screen and 2yrs premium warranty) since i want the keyboard light to be white or else i would opt for the Y7000SE with better specs (i already have the red keyboard light with my current msi laptop)..pwp for RM1 got the lenovo M200 RGB mouse, Lenovo H300 headset, Lenovo Recon Gaming backpack and the lenovo mousepad..

i use the LENXCIMB and purchased with shopback..original price is RM5250, the LENXCIMB gave me RM1049.80 discount (around 20%) and shopback gave me RM570.24 (around 14%)..so my final price is RM3629.96 which i think is a good price for the specs above compared to other brands..

Oh forgot you're buying Y540, I though Y7000SE, my bad

Anyway I highly suggest adding another 8GB RAM on your own for dual channel

Go for business grade, built better and higher reliability+QC

Thinkpad T495 or X395, around RM3k

There's no laptop that can do under 80C (CPU) under heavy load unless you underclock/lower power limits

Both 144Hz are similarly decent

Preferred max weight and min battery life?

Ic,weight is not reali a concern...
Around 2.5kg is ok also,coz won't be carrying around 98% of d time...
Jz need d portability if needed...
I am open to 17" as well...
Battery life is not a concern as well,but illegear battery upgrade is a gd option...

If you don't have any particular preferences on weight and battery life, get the Y7000SE with code LENXCIMB and Shopback. Best value for 1660Ti/2060 right now:
i7-9750H, 1660Ti/2060, 16/32GB RAM, 1TB HDD+1TB SSD, 144Hz, 2X2 WIFI, 2 yr premier onsite

Get Y540 15 if you prefer more subtle look, but slightly more expensive and expensive RAM+SSD upgrades compared to Y7000SE

Looking at a budget of roughly 3k. Found thinkpad x395 and HP Pavilion - 14-ce3052tx. Which one is better or there's better value for money for other brands? Usage for work.
