Recommend me an Ultrabook!

brendantys · Feb 2, 2014

Hi, looking to buy a new ultrabook. Is there any ultrabook with all of these things in one: ssd, dedicated graphics, haswell processor and is less than 1700sgd? I was looking at asus ux302lg but the full ssd model does not sell in SG

Will be using it for mainly work and light gaming (fifa). Please recommend me one thanks.

want to try DELL Vostro 5470?

You can change the internal hdd to a SSD and it will not exceed 2000sgd as well.

1199/1399(either 1 of the variants) + SSD amount = total amount.

Maybe find a ultrabook with dedicated graphics card and just replace hdd with ssd? it will be much cheaper and easier to find. The manufacturers often charge a premium to have an ssd in their systems. Its much cheaper to put one in yourself.

Macbook air is crap. 1.8k for 256gb storage and 4gb ram. i have mid 2011 macbook air and overheating happens once you open a game. My macbook's cpu run at low 50 surfing the net and instantly shoot up to 95 when i open dota 2.
