Hi currently have a 3-year-old ROG GL552VX
Got crack somewhere from fall, battery not working. Cannot run most newer releases. Windows 10 pun perpetually freezing/not responding for no specific reason.
Don't think I can sell for any decent price.

Need advice: should I upgrade a component (if possible, what?) OR just get whole new laptop?

QUOTE(ultralightbing @ Sep 9 2019, 07:06 PM)
Thanks for the response! Considering the damage and faults my existing ROG has now, how much do you think I can get for it?
*
May i know what do you mean by cannot run most newer release? Games you mean?
may i know if this is your laptop model : GL552VX

with GTX950M right?

Are you using HDD / SSD?

hi guys
just wondering, if anyone has any experience with MSI Prestige PS42-8RC?
most of the online reviews are for the i7 + mx 150 models,
the i5 + GTX 1050 4gb actually looks quite good for the price.
Would be interested to know whether the battery life for GTX 1050 is as good as MX150.. as well as if there are any other issues such as thermal throttling/QC issues with MSI?

thanks
*
battery life on gtx1050 is not that different than mx150. depends on the usage, for example you do a lite browsing and normal office usage, it may last you couple of hours (not include battery capacity). qc on msi, depends on certain model. but 1050 is old model (and old architecture, so you might need to compare price with newer specs , maybe price not that much different, you may top-up a little bit to get newer specs).

Hello guys, first time buyer from lenovo online here.

The UPS tracker says my laptop package is currently at sepang missing it's "import license". Should I be worried and start emailing them now or just have patience that this will get resolved by Lenovo soon?

1. Budget : RM3600
2. Usage  : atleast 5 tabs of google chrome running, and 1 trading platform, run 24hr in aircond room at home. life as digital nomad. so portability n lightweight is important
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : 14inch to 15.6inch, no ned touch screen, no need fancy flip.

currently comparing https://www.level51pc.co/welcome/Productinn...5s-1650-edition

and

which would you guys suggested?

hi guys, i have a concern with the wifi connection in  my house, using maxis router and my room is after 2 thick wall.

currently im using old laptop with 802.11n , sometimes disconnect when heavy maybe because of distance and low RSSI. i ran 2 laptops at the same time and do ping server , 1 Disconnect and another still connect.

since i am getting a new laptop , any laptop with specific specs can over come this problem ? i dont want to get wifi MESH.

i am looking at low entry gaming laptop.
*
You are in the wrong section laugh.gif Low RSSI sometimes does not help. newer notebook have dual rf chips. so, they can utilized 5ghz... either u get 5Ghz donggle... or get a new notebook. Your choice. However, ISP stock router are really bad... unless TIME wifi router tplink are consider ok la... stable..
