hi folks, advice needed :

1. Budget : max RM3K
2. Usage : light cad software, not much heavy rendering stuff, corel draw
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : prefer large display at 15', not much concern on battery and weight as usage is just within home

earlier on, ZM Fong had recomended Acer Nitro 5 AN515-43-R3B4 +RAM
this certainly looks much more cool compare Huawei D15 which i had in mind
quick question, when you say +RAM, do you foresee 8GB RAM might not be enough for the CAD tool and corel draw app?

just to be safe, this is the one you mentioned right?

how about this Lenovo (IdeaPad L340) about that price range but runs on i5-9300H

8GB is min nowadays, 16GB is recommended. If budget allows go for 16GB RAM

Yup that one, however I would highly suggest going for Legion 5 with newer Ryzen 4000 (even though over budget)

Avoid L340

note taken, appreciate the input
this one right?

so now i have shortlisted
1. Lenovo Legion 5 R4
2. Acer Nitro 5 AN515-43-R3B4 +RAM
