Hi, Would like to get more input based on the following requirements 1. Budget : ~5k 2. Usage : Heavy usage on virtual machines for development on different environment 3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : -- RAM 32GB or above -- preferable 2 slots for storage -- no heavy graphic usage -- weight < 1.8kg I am able to wait for about 1 to 2 months. Currently looking at Lenovo T14 g2 Ryzen 5850u, was looking at P14s with similar spec but out of stock in lenovo website Is there any better recommendation? Thanks

Thanks  T14 G2 AMD is decent, though if u need a good CPU performance business laptops might not for you since they are tuned towards balance between fan noise and performance can consider L14 G2 / L15 G2 also, don't forget to use coupon QUOTE(smartleader @ Aug 30 2021, 08:48 PM) DM me

Hi all, I am planning to get a laptop for light gaming (dota 2, PES 2021), watch movies and download. I think for my requirement, I do not need a high-end GPU 3050/60, 1650 should be more than enough. I need to have 16GB memory and at least 512GB SSD, 15inch laptop. I am comparing Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3 Gen 6 (Ryzen 7 5800H, 120Hz display, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, GTX 1650 with the price of around RM3.7k); with Lenovo Legion 5 Gen 6 (Ryzen 7 5800H, 60Hz display, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, GTX 1650 with the price of around RM4.3k). There is a price different of about RM600 with similar specs but with display of only 60Hz on Legion despite the extra money. I know Legion have MUX and higher TGP but if I am not playing those intensive games like Cyberpunk, it should not be matter right? I am particularly concern on the display since I also change my smartphone from 60Hz to 120Hz display and I can totally feel the different, much smoother on 120Hz display. Upgrading the display of Legion 5 15 is costing alot (more than 5k), which is not worth, better to go for Legion 5 Pro is even a better bargain, price at around 4.7k with same specs, display of 165Hz and RTX 3050. What do you think?
Thanks in advance.
