"If you can't easily move your computer, why are you buying a laptop in the first place?"
i think you would buy a 15" laptop if you couldn't carry around a 50-pound gaming rig. in this case, buying a 4-pound gaming laptop would make sense than hauling your rig around places. hehe

I wouldn't call a 4 pound laptop a gaming laptop IMO. I wouldn't even call a laptop a gaming laptop if it doesn't have an MXM card and is only sporting a BGA card

"Gaming" is a relative term.
different strokes for different folks
my 940mx is sufficient for my games (TW3, D3, Overwatch)

Why You Shouldn't Buy a 15-inch Consumer Laptop
<click here for link>
i don't mind if it doesn't have any specific component or branding. i'd still buy a 15-inch gaming laptop if its lighter than my gaming desktop and will empower me to play computer games outdoors. hehehe

What I can say is 15" laptop is still practical as desktop replacement specially in my case since I'm working abroad, my laptop weighs around 3kg (laptop itself only) and around 0.8kg Power supply, but I dont really need to carry it that much specially when you have car or will ride a public transpo. Actually it's not that heavy carrying in a backpack, even a grade school carries morethan 5kg of bag nowadays i think even around 10kg of books :D

Mga sir kamusta ba ang quality and longevity ng ASUS laptops? I'm thinking of buying one kaso first time ko to consider an ASUS laptop. Planning to use it for AUTOCAD, 3D Modelling Software, Frequent gaming (DOTA 2 & PUBG) Here are the specs:
ASUS ZENBOOK UX430UN
Intel Core i5-8250U
NVIDIA® GeForce® MX150 2GB
8GB RAM
256GB SATA3 M.2 SSD
I'm thinking with the given specs baka mag overheat if I go with the i7 model since isa lang fan nya for cooling. Your thoughts are much appreciated.

Isa to sa pinag pilian ko last week pero nabasa ko yung throttling issue nito. Kung Build quality lang paguusapan either Dell or HP. Pangit din yung keyboard press ng UX430UN . Di ko alam kung bakit di ako satisfied . With this, I opt to buy yung Dell inspiron 13 7370 since mag program lang naman ako .
Eto try mo rin meron din kay V**m** for 43k -> Asus S410UN. Same specs ng UX430UN but mejo mas makapal . May Flex ung pag ttype sa keyboard nito kaya di ko nagustuhan.

The new HP Pavilion 14 has two RAM slots inside (one slot occupied with 8GB DDR4, the other slot is available) so it easy to upgrade to 32GB (2x16GB).
It also has a 2.5" HDD bay available inside so you can still add a 2.5" HDD or 2.5" SSD in the future.

Based sa reviews e hindi maganda ung battery life ng 7370 and mabigat siya while ung sa hp naman e hindi din maganda ang xooling kaya kahit naka mx150 e sandali mo lang siya magagamit for light gaming dahil iinit agad.

sir i recommend the Dell Inspiron 7559. ito ang bibilhin ko kung kailangan ko ng laptop ngayon. madaling i-maintain. madaling baklasin, kalasin at pira-pirasuhin para kalikutin. isang screw lang sa bottom part ng laptop, may access ka na kaagad sa mga laman-loob nya -- Battery, HDD, Wi-Fi module, RAM slots and SSD, at pati kaluluwa nya. may dalawang fans rin kaya mas magaling magpalamig ng mga components. available na sa inyong suking tindahan for around Php 50k. hehe

Ano ba recommended laptop ngayon na 14-20k budget?
Meron ba kayong marecommend na:
128GB SSD
4GB RAM
No DVD RW
14inch
Sa CPU ok lang Intel Celeron/AMD basta wag lang Atom.
Pangregalo ko sa pamangkin kong maghhighschool na.
So mobility, speed tska practical na price.
Salamat!

Recommended nila sa Acer Service Center sa Paco Manila po at dapat sa kanila mo din bibilhin parts. Better call them first.

Well, Thinkpads have always been expensive compared to most other consumer notebooks. My first laptop was a Thinkpad R61i bought from the US and it lasted me for a long time. It was built like a tank and never broke down; I finally gave it away to someone who needed a laptop. Thinkpads are generally considered as business rather than consumer laptops though, which I guess is one reason why they're expensive.

Bukod sa service center nila sa paco, pwede rin sa mga ASERCO branches at bring your own part sa kanila

Ano po kaya problem ng laptop ko, pagkabukas ko pa lang ng laptop nasa 80C na agad siya accrding to HWMonitor and lakas an agad umikot ng fan pero kapag hinawakan mo yung laptop mismo, hindi naman siya mainet

1. Try to feel the air in the exhaust if nafefeel mo na mainit yung hangin na lumalabas then it could be really running in 80°C, kasi normally idle is nasa 40°C or below and hindi mo mafefeel na mainit yung hangin na lumalabas sa exhaust.
2. Close all application and Open Task Manager and tingnan mo yung CPU Usage it should be only around 0-2% while Idle or 5% maximum usage while idle, if not then try to see what application is running, makikita naman sa task manager kung anong process ang may mataas na CPU usage and it may be the cause of High Temp.
3. If CPU is idling at 0-5% or no applications is using CPU, and shows 80C sa HWMonitor, and malakas yung fan and mainit yung lumalabas na hangin sa exhaust, then you may need to open the laptop and Repaste. It could be a bad thermal paste specially kung matagal na yung laptop mo.

@fanboyonly actually hindi po talaga siya mainit kahit yung hangin sa exhaust. totally normal po yung temp niya and wala pong malakas gumamit ng CPU pero both msi afterburner and hwmonitor sinasabi na 80C siya. Kung ano po yung feel nya nung naka off siya almost no difference pero talagang taas ng reading nila

I think dried na thermal paste ng laptop mo and hindi na optimal yung pagtransfer ng heat sa cooling system ng laptop mo. The reason kaya mataas temp mo and kaya hindi mainit yung hangin na lumalabas sa exhaust mo, since hindi na nga ok yung pagtransfer ng heat sa heatsink ng laptop mo.
Try to repaste and isabay mo na linising yung laptop fans & heatsink.
