Having use Dell desktop and laptops before and claim warranty, I can say dell's after sales is excellent. tech come on time as promised, replacement part never an issue even in east Malaysia. But once out of warranty, parts super expensive.
Is it all AI laptop ram cannot upgrade or only some? I try look see on website, some specifically mentioned on board ram, some mentioned sodimm ram which I assume still can upgrade?

Hi Folks need recommendation to buy new gaming laptop.

1. Model = Any
2. CPU = Prefer Intel over AMD but will go for AMD if its really good
3. GPU = Prefer Nvidia over AMD but will go for AMD if its really good
4. Screen Size = 16~17" (i dont have any preference for clear 4k graphics in games, more on performance.)

Usage = CPU core intensive games such as HOI4/Cities Skylines. Triple A games (if there are games that intrigues me), RPGs like rdr2/the witchers in Medium settings.

Budgets : no more than 7k.

Extra points = easy to dissemble for diy cleaning or ram/ssd upgrades, small power adapter, easy to source parts (keyboard caps etc), future proof specs(maybe can tahan play 3-4YEARS new game).

Gaming laptop used before : Illegear Z5, TechArmory Commandos Carbine 4, Not into custom laptop anymore since their parts are expensive and hard to source.

Thanks.

any good laptop for browsing & ms office work, around ~rm4k budget? not too updated about laptop market.
criteria is 14-15 inch screen. no need discrete GPU, iGPU will do. just need to have enough RAM (16GB) and CPU power to last.

Are you playing games with power adapter plugged in? Gaming laptop cant even perform at 50% without the power brick.

Check your laptop spec and buy online N DIY. Very easy. Check youtube if your laptop same model.

Depends on your laptop. Gaming laptop mostly have easy access by unscrewing the bottom cover whereas normal laptop usually has to pry here and there to open the bottom cover.

Hi sifus, need recommendations for a new laptop.

[Budget] Optimally ~3k

[Purpose] Heavy statistical calculations especially in systematic reviews, ideally gaming laptop at the same time

[Monitor resolution] No specific preference

[Games & softwares that use frequently] Usual Office programs with Mendeley, SPSS, R and RStudio, JASP/Jamovi and multiple browsers opened at the same time. Possible FF14, Warframe and some gacha games.

No specific brand in mind

For those budget around 1.6k, can consider this, retail shop selling RM2.2k above, good processor and business model
