Hey guys, I did some looking around based on your recommendations. I changed my focus a bit to include heavier/larger laptops, since I won't be working on the go all the time. As of now, I've narrowed it down to the ASUS ROG Strix series and Illegear. Not sure I'll be going for the Zenbook Pro, since it's not upgradeable and the 16GB version is quite out of my budget. Thought of going for the Hero III. Also looked at Illegear (Onyx), similar specs but about 500 to 1000 MYR cheaper. Heard the keyboard and sound isn't that nice, though. Planning to visit Illegear to check their stuff out in person. I really liked the Hero though, might end up getting that. Thanks again everyone! Really appreciate your help.

It looks good, still within my budget. I noticed it doesn't have a webcam (I know, pretty minor thing), I do need it as I have video conferences for uni + my intern job. Thank you for the recommendation though, I will keep it on my radar. I see, that's sad. I just hope I don't get something that melts itself : ' ) Thank you everyone for your recommendations, I'll take some time to check them out first. ((I'm still open to recommendations!))

Thickness doesn't matter to me at all, but something below 2.5kg would be good. Slightly flexible about the weight though. I hear that's a common problem with compact laptops. Oh gosh. I've heard that it gets toasty but didn't know it was to that extent. Do you have any recommendations?

Hello everyone! I'm looking for a new laptop, hopefully something that will be good for the next 4 to 5 years. I'll be using it for university, watching movies, Photoshop/Lightroom (and maybe some video editing), as well as some gaming. My must haves would be at least 16GB RAM (something upgradeable would be nice) and a dedicated GPU. Definitely a 15 inch display as well, it's really hard for me to go back to something smaller since I got my current 15 inch laptop. Purchasing in Malaysia, preferably nothing more than 8000MYR (about 1900USD). I'm quite interested in these two laptops, both with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. Zenbook 15 UX533FD (i7-8565U, GTX1050 MAX Q) XPS 15 7590 (i7-9750H, GTX 1650) It would be great to get your comments and recommendations, I'm open to other options as well. Thanks!
