Hi guys,
I'm looking for a laptop with the following requirements.
Already considering the Acer Nitro 5 AN515-43-R3B4 or Asus TUF FX505D-TAL392T.
1. GPU : GTX1650
2. screen size : 15 inches or bigger.
3. Price range : below RM3200, cheaper better
4. SSD : Yes
5. Can pay via Citibank credit card EPP.

Thanks

Currently rotating between Sony Vegas 16 and Davinci Resolve Studio 16 for now. Will most likely be using Davinci Resolve exclusively once I have the new laptop. Yes, a decent display to work on the go. It doesn't have to be the greatest display. Anything that's decent enough for video editing and gaming. =)

I already have a 60hz 1080P external monitor enough for video work at home. I do have a desktop for work and gaming at home but it's showing it's age, so I'm getting a laptop first and upgrade my desktop later since I'm mostly out nowadays.

I would avoid those with 4GB RAM because if you want to upgrade:
-8GB: add another 4GB but you'l be stuck at 8GB, if want upgrade to 16GB in future it's very troublesome
-16GB: need to take out the original RAM and add 2 sticks of 8GB

Can consider Legion 5 AMD customize (16GB RAM). Use code CITI30
Since you can't wait more than a month, consider Illegear Rogue Ryzen (4800H+2060). 120Hz low sRGB though. 10875H laptops are out of your budget

Yes. I have to get one by this month unfortunately. Will be resuming video work next month. Thank you! Will take a look at it!

Budget - <5K

Requirement: Dedicated GPU and light weight

Usage - web browsing and light Video Editing

Weight - below 2.kg

Display - 14 or 15 inch, 1080P

Storage - 500GB SSD for now with it being upgradable in the future

RAM - 16GB

Currently have my eyes on Acer swift 5 but the 16gb ram variance dont have dedicated GPU

That's about it! Thank you!

Hi,
I'm planning to buy a laptop for my girl friend.

Budget: below RM3200

Appreciate sifus can help abit. I am currently looking at a light and small laptop that i can carry around for work. I am looking at something like XPS13 2020. Appreciate sifus can recommend me some cheaper alternative.

Usage - Accounting software, excel , word, web browsing, maybe a little video editing. No gaming

Weight - As light as possible

Battery - As good as possible

Display - 13 inch like XPS13 2020 (near bezel less)

Storage -480gb SSD would be sufficient

RAM - 8 or 16 is fine.

I'm fine without a good display.

Is this laptop worth it?


As always, thanks.

Any preference on battery life?
Any preferences on weight and battery life?
What's your budget? Also, need the laptop now or able to wait longer?
Ideapad 5 14 is fine but I would suggest getting 16GB RAM and 57Wh battery, maybe larger storage

Consider Swift 3 SF314-42-R8A9 / R43G

Swift 3 SF314-42-R8A9 is a bit over my budget at 2.6k. I just updated to 57Wh. No options to upgrade RAM but I think I'll be fine with 8GB for office applications. Adding storage also would push the budget over my limit. Maybe a future upgrade. I guess I'll proceed with this order. Thanks ZM.

Take note that you can't upgrade the RAM in future. You're welcome

No. As long as it runs those softwares smoothly.

Able to up budget to RM3.5k? Need high sRGB display or fine with low sRGB?

I think should be OK for RM 3500. And low sRGB is fine.

Can consider Legion 5i / 5Pi customize, use code LENXCIMB. Suggest taking 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD (or 256+256 if want 80Wh battery)

Currently looking for laptop within budget 2.5k to 3k. to last about 5 years..
any spec can support such longevity?
