None at the moment. Normally I game on PS5

Maybe FF14 especially when I'm on the road. Some other games will be like those RTS/Strategy like Civilisation etc

Hence 'light' gaming. Any graphics intensive game i'll just likely get in on PS5

Hi Sifus, can help recommend?

1. Budget : <3.5k can add up to 3.7k if required
2. Usage  : Youtube, Movies, Casual Gaming
3. Requirements: Display Size, Battery Life and Weight doesn't matter coz laptop will always plugged in to Monitor and Power. Wait time can up to 3 months, no rush.

Was looking into Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3 (Part Number: 82K2017FMJ) for the 16gb ram but sold out already.

Hi sifus please help me

current laptop looks like going to kaput. thinking of changing to a newer one

1. Budget : RM5k  (can +-rm500 from the amount)
2. Usage  : multipurpose. Not purely on heavy gaming but moderate .
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : display 15.6 and above, weight doesn't matter, waiting time does not matter too

Did a bit of searching and found Acer Nitro series closer to the price but some are with Ryzen and I dont have much input about ryzen either so was looking for i7 11th gen. Please guide me confused.gif

Hello sifu,

Need a new laptop as my current one quite outdated and sometimes blue screen.

Budget: Not more than RM5,000
Usage: Web browsing, Microsoft Office and some analytical tools like SPSS, Python, Mendeley etc.

Not using for gaming but expected to at least have processor of i5 and ram of 8GB.

So far looking at Dell Latitude 5420 but open for suggestions.

Many thanks in advance

Edit: open to long waiting time (6-10 weeks)

QUOTE(aeronyc @ Jan 5 2022, 01:27 PM)
all sifus,

appreciate your help here.

I'm looking to buy a laptop almost immediately (in the next 2 - 3 days), can go collect at shop nearby (KL, lowyat or Cheras area). If no choice, can also buy online (ready stock) then wait for delivery (I assume within 1 week?).

Budget: RM2.5k to RM3.5k
Usage: MS office, surfing, NOT for gaming
Spec: no special preference, but prefer to have a bigger screen (15' and above) with better resolution.

thanks in advance
