Gaming 3 is actually still worth it at it's RM3.2k-ish pricing.

Nowadays, you can't even get any gaming-ish laptop under RM3.5k.

Also, I'm much touched to see AX200 and 512GB SSD as base specs. sweat.gif

The main issue I think will be the eyesore IPS with low colour and brightness, so it's best to use with external monitor.

Well, if you in need of semi-gaming specs laptop now and unwilling to go above RM4k, that's pretty much the only choice you have for now.

As for whether it's worth... Last year Early this year, we have closely similar specs (4th gen Ryzen though) Gaming 3 for under RM2.3k, but well if everybody can predict the future, then everybody already a millionaire by now... sweat.gif

THE CHEAPEST RYZEN 5 WITH 1650

https://www.lenovo.com/my/en/p/82EYCTO1WWEN...essageFlag=true

If you swap all for the top specs i.e Ryzen 7, 512gb ssd, better screen, 16gb ram, it should be around 3k which I personally feel a better bargain

But at almost whole 1k different in pricing. Kasichanlah.jpg

Lenovo is again on lelong mode when they sells this budget gaming laptop and offering “FRONTLINER” discount. The performance/price it offered is unseen or unmatched for a long time. Be it the lowest variant or highest variant, both are “dirt” cheap for what it’s offering. (Though I don’t really suggest upgrading the 1650 to Ti, it cost RM190 more just for the slightest performance increase, less than 5% IIRC).

I also very tempted in the performance/specs this Gaming Ideapad can offer if I don’t have a working laptop with me (I’ve actually upgraded/side graded 3 laptops in the past 5 years, 2 of them sub RM1.5k cheap pricing but still no reasons to do any upgrade or purchase any time soon...)

Lenovo actually have a spinoff model called Ideapad Creator and it came equipped with a decent display. If I can source this panel for cheap and upgrade the Ideapad Gaming, I might just pull the trigger again. haha

Hi guys, could you please help me on purchasing 15" laptop

Below 3.5k
For daily office work.
15" screen
512 SSD


My consideration:
Since (heavy) multi tab browsing + multi app running together would prefer 16GB RAM? (is it overkill?)



Currently looking at these 3 laptops:

1)
IdeaPad L3 15ITL6
i5-1135G7
4 GB DDR4-2933MHz (Soldered) + 8 GB DDR4-2933MHz (SoDIMM)
512 GB M.2 2242 SSD
RM3,008.55


2)
IdeaPad L3 15ITL6
i7-1165G7
4 GB DDR4-2933MHz (Soldered) + 8 GB DDR4-2933MHz (SoDIMM)
512 GB M.2 2242 SSD
RM3,407.55


3)
Machenike MACHCREATOR E
i5-11300H
16GB DDR4 RAM 3200MHz
512GB Nvme SSD
RM3379.00

Would hope the laptop can last at least 5 years.
Which laptop should I take? any other recommendation?
Thanks!!

Hi guys,

Really appreciate if i could get some inputs in terms of build quality. I work on construction site so build quality concerns me, like, a lot. I also play AAA games ( like RDD2, Witcher3) quite often so performance is kinda important to me as well.

Budget: 5~5.5K
Usage: Autocad, Gaming
Requirement: performance.

I've shortlisted my options, right now im choosing in between

1) Acer Nitro 5, Ryzen 7 5800H, 8GB 3200Mhz DDR4 RAM, 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD, NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX TM 3060 with 6GB of dedicated GDDR6 VRAM.

2) Lenovo Legion 5 Pro, Ryzen™ 5 5600H, 8 GB SO-DIMM DDR4 3200MHz,
512 GB M.2 2242 SSD, NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX™ 3050 Ti 4GB GDDR5.

I've done some research but it confuses me even more. My thoughts right now is that Option 1 is defitnitely better in specs, and Option 2 have better build quality. Am i correct? If the build quality doesnt really make a big difference, i dun mind choosing acer>lenovo. Buf if the Nitro 5 is really cheap plastic then i will go the other way round. I couldnt make my decision and i wish to place my order ASAP as i accidentally break my old one.

Sifus please help rclxub.gif
