Unker out of touch with laptops model now.

Budget RM4K.

I think preferably want long lasting battery. But those lighter laptops usually smaller screen a bit, can't have cake and eat it too.

Also nowadays laptops all jalat like phones cannot open change battery and add RAM etc...all sealed...kanasai.

I like HP and Lenovo brand.

Requirements:
1. 6/12 cores/threads minimum, preferably 8/16
2. 8GB RAM minimum
3. 512GB NVME
4. Light

GPU important for Engineering student? hmm.gif What they use? AutoCAD? Unker not Engineer.

Actually engineering software like Solidworks , Autocad , Ansys if you do 3d modelling , is preferably to have discrete GPU. They support GPU hardware acceleration. Of coz, discrete GPU is in gaming laptops.
If u only need to do 2D , then integrated graphics is good enough. But 8GB of RAM is not enough. Latest Solidworks you need minimum 16GB RAM to be usable.

need 6C12T and 8C16T meh ?

RAM and Graphics i understand but CPU so jialat ?

basically you need gaming PC already

not sure if Macbook Air M1 can handle GPU requirement or not but M1 processor quite good, surpass most of the laptop CPU out there

Unless you intend to buy the software (perhaps through some student incentive), usually the uni would already have the computer facilities for students use so having 3D intensive laptop is kinda pointless.......unless ahem.

Or maybe Im just old, is it nowadays every engineering students given free software for their studies?

From what I know , Autocad is free for education, renewable every 3 years. Matlab is priced at campus license . So the student has to register at mathworks with their student email address with their institution domain to get free license.

Nowadays bcoz of covid , classes are online now. Ppl dont go campus. You kinda need your own machine to work on.

Hmmmmmm......then my advice.....get a desktop. Not like you going to bring ur laptop to starbucks and do 3D hahahahahaha,,,,,,,,,wait do they?

Laptop with 3D graphics is quite pricey and doesnt really last very long (milage vary but personally laptop devices tend to break on me after just 2 years). Also, this covid thing seems like is going to be over soon IMO.

Again up to TS. I dont really know how TS's uni going to handle this anyway.

But maybe 1 year down the road, KJ declare sudah menang, then all go back to campus....i think laptop is safer bet.

Yeah, i think i need to ask uni first before blindly buy a laptop. If really don't need all the horsepower, just get the lightest laptop possible for office and presentation stuff.

And yeah, students today probably go to Starbucks with their laptop....

That is not for student level la. Anyways , Quadro is the same silicon as GeForce , just with drivers that are certified by the industry CAD software makers. Maybe more VRAM , and thts it.
Autocad works perfectly fine with GeForce or Radeon , the requirement is only DirectX support.
Many years ago , ppl need Quadro because CAD software demand OpenGL drivers which GeForce suck at. Now no more.

this is not 2008 anymore

laptops these days are powerful, efficient, and at the same time lightweight. Not like in the old days of where only heavy brick gaming laptop can game and do heavy task. Sure at the same price point, a PC beats laptop in terms of performance (if you know what you're buying), but not really by much anymore

From what I know people bought Quadro last time in US is because of the great support for Quadro which Nvidia guarantees a replacement within certain period. Does not applies elsewhere, so no point buying Quadro GPU if not in the US.

What engineering? Need autocad? Afaik yes autocad does require discrete GPU and workstation GPU is more suited for autocad. However costs may be a concern for workstation laptop. Try checking if dell refurbished outlet has 4-4.5k workstation laptop. If you study EE, not sure Abt bachelor, but Msc especially, signal processing requires ML. Then consumer discrete GPU is way better. Don't ever get workstation GPU! Its low CUDA cores, especially low memory (2-4GB) means ML training will be shit. 4.5k can get gaming laptop RTX 3060

For all-in efficiency purposes, I would recommend a M1 based Macbook Pro, but it will be >4k budget

If you can wait a few weeks, go for a brand name 12th Gen Intel i7 with 16GB RAM

If can't wait, then 11th Gen i7 with 16GB will also do fine

actually sekadar student, no need any jet engine level laptop.
your lecturer won't give you to render Level 5 BIM etc. biasa autocad few lines and solidwork few part drawings.

any laptop with SSD + 8 GB ram you are good to go.

if you need "engineer" level laptop under MYR 4k, not and never possible.

For student, any laptop with 16gb ram, with decent amount of storage and ok ok CPU can already. If they do cadwork also usually not very large projects. If they do rendering also not complicated parts. Heaviest thing they can run is either FEA on small part or fluid flow simulation.

But if work I still prefer desktop. No need kena pegang bola when want to do upgrades or repair. Nothing soldered down.

Quadro GPU and geforce is essentially the same chip with 2 distinct differences. The firmware and the memory. Firmware is developed for accuracy and reliability which is also why the quadro cards also usually have ECC RAM. I do a lot of GPU processing in my work and I have 2 machines. One with geforce and the other with quadro. I have never had the quadro crash midway through processing but the geforce has crashed 3 times to date.

Acer's design and materials has actually improved quite a lot, you can give them some chance. thumbsup.gif

Their laptops like Nitro and Predator series are great for engineering student. They're pretty good for CAD software and other minimum requirements.

Ram rarely rosak. The keyboard, lcd, hinges, mobo will go first.
They soldered the ram so that it could be made thinner and slimmer.

Downside of soldered on ram is that you're limited in the amount you could add, which is none.
Take a look at thinkpad, some still have ram socket.

For engineering, a good processor is important. Graphic card is optional. With that modest budget, I would look for Lenovo Thinkpad series, maybe E or L series. Getting a T series would be better but since last year, prices of lenovo laptops have been rising.

I dunno mang. Not versed in nitro.
A lot of laptops now come soldered. Non removable battery, no removable flaps for parts upgrade. Just to make it as thin as light as possible.

Thin = flimsy. Most of it anyway.

Yeah, was browsing Lenovo website last night until fall asleep Liao.

One criteria I am looking at is lightweight model around 1.3kg model. No point having a 2.xx kg beast + adapter to lug around. Charger if use USB PD can also work with phone? Then less chargers to lug around!

Didnt you say your budget was below 4K?
Its good, but this one has no room to upgrade your RAM. It also has very small battery capacity. I would agree with h@ksam suggestion though. Very good value. Only drawback is the 5 weeks delivery period.

Thanks man.

How come i don't see the link to customize laptops at lenovo. Click click here and there also cannot get to the link above.

The specs and weight seems fine. It says 1.64kg, although i am hoping for 1.3kg.

Anyway, i notice it says "Out of Stock" for the E14-Gen 3 model at the product page.

for engineering student huh? so, get an i5 or ryzen 5 processor, 8gb or 16gb ram, with graphic card will do.

since budget is 4k... can consider gtx type. rtx graphic card... not sure ya. of course lah, rtx is much better.
about harddisk... 256 or 512gb enough liao. see your budget one. you can store the data in external harddisk surely 512gb is better

dun expect a light laptop when you want performance. you must be new to laptop...

funnyTONE Just read your post, yeah, this is good config. But I probably won't buy all those extra insurance. Seems like waste of money. I think the only part that always die first is battery. Ori Battery probably RM300+?

Now I just need to check more on the weight. If it's around 1.6kg acceptable lah, given the better specs compares to lightweight 1.3kg models.

You said earlier 5 weeks delivery, is it due to out of stock status? :Hmmm:

But I think acceptable lah, my kid just starting his orientation this week and real class only next week. Can use Samseng A7 tablet or old laptop if needed for time being.

15" with decent GPU and CPU (not those power saving type) 16GB RAM at least, SSD and but one ext. HDD and cloud for backup. Usually gaming laptop will fit this requirement.

It can be good for some decent AI simulation, CFD and FEA, AutoCAD and SOLIDWORKS should be quite smooth. Can last 4 years, only need to replace battery and perhaps cleaning the fan and re-thermal paste the CPU and GPU.

17" too heavy, avoid. If screen not big at home, can buy monitor for those assignments/word processing.

I think you should check out the new Dell Inspiron with AMD chips. They have 16:10 screen and upgradable RAM (unlike Vivobook with soldered RAM). Battery size is quite big also.

RM 5.3k seems good. But what is the weight?

Just now went to Harvey Norman.

This caught my eye.

Seems gooding, specs all passed and weight and size perfect. No need big screen. Already got an ultrawide monitor to use at home. Portability is No 1 concern.

Btw, i check this 5800U and 5800H. It seems the same, what is the difference? I can also find that 5800H use more power and 5800U is for ultra thin laptop.

Unker out of touch with laptops model now.

Budget RM4K.

I think preferably want long lasting battery. But those lighter laptops usually smaller screen a bit, can't have cake and eat it too.

Also nowadays laptops all jalat like phones cannot open change battery and add RAM etc...all sealed...kanasai.

I like HP and Lenovo brand.

Requirements:
1. 6/12 cores/threads minimum, preferably 8/16
2. 8GB RAM minimum
3. 512GB NVME
4. Light

GPU important for Engineering student?  hmm.gif What they use? AutoCAD? Unker not Engineer.

Used to buy Dell stuff, but their plastic quality like shit.
So brittle. Thats why they can afford 1-1 replacement most of the time. I moved to Lenovo after that.

I read from another Ktard in an old thread that he recommends Dell to family and friends for the customer service.

But yea I am like you, moved from Dell to Lenovo. Yes cust service good for non-IT people and cheaper, but quality is crap. I had the Dell Inspiron gaming series before its HDMI port no longer work. The bottom one-screw cover also broke.. super brittle.

The lenovo website really confusing...there are many product with the same model name

https://www.lenovo.com/my/en/laptops/thinkp...MD/p/20Y70030MY

This one also E14 Gen 3, but not customizable and has 5700U. Can't add battery, but otherwise the rest of the specs are ok. RAM a bit werd...8GB soldered + 8GB Sodimm??? Naniiii!!!!

I surf until wanna pengsan liao.

But this one delivery within 3-6 days. I think 6-8 weeks too much liao for the customization. Maybe i take this.

Side note the Thinkpad X13/X14 Gen 2 also almost similar specs. Other than CPU variation and screen size. Am thinking about the X13 as well.

https://www.lenovo.com/my/en/laptops/thinkp...G2/p/20XH0036MY

It has better battery and 3 yrs onsite.

My Dell Latitude broke its hinges first. Upon dissasembly, I notice the old dvd drive was loose and soft, as if it was made of aluminium and cardboard. The same with the rest of the body, very cheap plastic. I mean sure that made the entire laptop feels very light, but that means all the locking bits and where plastic meets metal break easily. But I do love how easy every components are easy to replace and gain access to. Having Dell's accidental damage cover really puts you mind at peace.

I'd probably categorize Lenovo sites as 2 main categories.
The normal, customizable version.
The fast delivery, offer bin.

If you're looking for cheap deals, then just check out the READY TO DELIVERY. I normally camp there for specific models which will come every fortnight. Mind you the delivery may still take around 8-14 days because its usually shipped from Hong Kong or China.

But if want souped up builds, then look for the normal customize options. For those, the deals comes in the form of add-on e.g. upgrade to 16gb RAM for $70. I suppose, this is why you feel everything kinda overwhelming since you're still fairly new to the site.

Worst part is how its not friendly on mobile. Truly sucky experience when you're waiting so long for the pages to refresh.

Lastly, once you've committed to an item you like, put it in the cart and try to chat with lenovo agent. They will check your cart and see if there are some things they could offer you, usually in the form of discount vouchers or free gifts. ALWAYS ASK FOR FREE GIFTS. But if you compare it with any existing codes like DOORBUSTER and find that its cheaper, then just ignore it.

Shopback is where I would definitely make sure is tracked because who wouldn't love a rebate am I right?

I found a better code yesterday. DEALSDAY. Give more discount. I am also using my son's student verification ID to get another 5% discount (which I did on PC). Tried to do the same for Shopback but i can't do the student verification again. Crap. Also notice Shopback has some T&C about tracking certain codes. Might not be applicable if I stack difference discount. I think the DEALSDAY + student discount is very good Liao. Later today check whether still in cart or codes expired or not. On the edge of buying. Just that I don't really like the Lenovo Thinkpad design...black and square...very business like....would it look odd for College students? Lol.

Yes, you are right Lenovo's website reallt overwhelming. Too many options. But I am surprised.thqt even DELL is not as customizable. I thought DELL should be more customizable.

But if you need 3D CAD...strong processor and GPU as well...

Ohhh.... a new code!
Thanks for the discovery, I'll definitely adding that to my list.
Ohh.... I didn't know you can stack student's discount with another code. I should try that in the future.

Fyi, Thinkpad was an IBM series back in the 80s. So they definitely went with the business design on that one, especially the red nipple.

It's common to have soldered ram on today's notebook. You normally get 1 extra slot where you can addon the ram. Therefore, it's always 1 soldered + 1 not-soldered. I do hate soldered though.

Yes, I know. Last time I used an IBM Thinkpad in Opis for a number of years. So I am familiar with molesting the red nipple...brows.gif. But for me the design is very "Lou tou" , old fashioned. My son doesn't seems to mind though. I also have 2 other Lenovo laptops in the house, quite old, more than 5 years for sure. Both working fine except the battery no good as it has been replaced with OEM battery which last a couple of month and now they practically needs to be plug in to use. No intention paying for expensive ori batteries for old lappies...also probably no stock anyway.

Its not just the classic design.
Materials used for Thinkpad is a mix of magnesium, carbon fibre and plastic which makes it flexible yet very durable. I don't get to see these type of rubbery touch on the surface on other laptops. And I simply love typing on a Lenovo keyboard. So bloody satisfying.

Yeah, unfortunately most batteries never last long. You'd be lucky to get it to work longer than 6 months.

Btw, is it you need to click the deal from PROMO then only proceed? What i did was open Shopback, then search Lenovo, Click Lenovo, then make purchase. I haven't use Shopback for many years...still got RM11 inside...just open back for this purchase. LOL.

Update:
Just saw there is a record in the activity and they say they will investigate. So i think it needs 2-3 days for shopback to check.

Say, how do i get the money out from Shopback? If can get 6%...wahh..damn good deal this laptop!

For engineering student usually you can go for high performance laptop or even gaming laptops.

Acer Swift 5 is pretty decent model for an engineering student, or you could even go for dell xps 15, some also like using macbooks if you're an apple user.
For gaming laptops razer blade 15 or acer predator helios 300 are pretty good ones too. Good luck!

Bro, read my last few posts. Boughted Liao. Anyway, I have read a lot from Reddit there from Engineering students and Engineers. Conclusion, don't need a powerful GPU for students.

Just found out something a few days ago. Apparently, all the software usage will be provided by a virtual remote service by the University, including things like Autocad, Adobe, whatever. Anyone familiar with this?

So this means whatever laptop specs also not very important, maybe even Android Tablet also can run liao...hmm.gif
