Acer Swift 5 SF514-51-51J6

Hi guys, was searching around for a decent laptop that will last me and i'm really interested in the Acer Swift 5 series laptop, specifically the SF514-51-51J6 variant. It retails for RM3499 but i saw a few posts in the forum selling it for around RM3k-3.1k, which is great. details of this model can be found in the link below:

Anyways my only problem with this is that it only has 4GB of RAM, i called Acer Malaysia's customer service and they said it's non upgradable, was wondering if any of you know if i could upgrade the ram to 8GB RAM in lowyat? As in, can the seller manually install more ram to the laptop? and also, if i wanted this model, should i make the trip to lowyat to search for better deals or are the prices about the same.

thanks in advnace

Unifi advanced 30mbps vs Maxis Fibre 20mbps

Hi guys so I'm moving into new condo in a few weeks and considering which ISP to choose, was using Unifi VIP 5 package for the past few years and overall very happy with the experience, had little to no issues on connectivity etc.

Checked up on new packages and found out unifi recently unveiled their new 30mpbs plan for a promotion price of rm179 per month and completely ditched the VIP plans, only downside is the upload speed of 5mbps.

Moving out to live with sister and aunt, both not really heavy internet users, just the usual YouTube, smart tvs and drama streaming etc, aunt suggested Maxis Fibre's 10mbps or 20mbps plans as she is Maxis user and got promotion, 10mbps is rm128 while 20mbps is rm178.

Was going to go for Unifi's new plan straight but now am at a crossroad because I read a lot of reviews complaining about a lot of problems faced by unifi advanced 30mbps users, particularly about slow internet speeds at night during peak hours, which I've never experienced using VIP 5.

What do you guys think? Which is more reliable as an ISP(no slow down, breakdown, throttle, etc), Unifi or Maxis Fibre? Is upload speed really that important? Should I go for symmetrical download/upload speed like Maxis offers? And what are your experiences if you're using either one?

Was gonna go for TIME 100mbps but not available in my area

Best tasting Tuna in malaysia

Not sure if this is the right section to ask but oh what the heck. Can anyone suggest good tasting tuna brands? i've tried almost every type of tuna from Ayam Brand and the taste seriously sucks for me. any alternatives? I've been to a few Café's that make really good tasting tuna sandwiches like it's nice to eat, has pepper and onions and all not like the ones you get from ayam brand, i understand that they probably added the pepper and onions themselves to make it better tasting but i'm sure the tuna they're using is different as well. the ones they make at subway are pretty good tasting as well. So yea main point is, any suggestions to tuna brands other than ayam brand that tastes good? thanks in advance

Can I use milo as a weight gainer?

kenalex555 — Wed, 13 Aug 2014 17:51:01 +0800

This is probably a very stupid question to some of you but I was wondering if I could use Milo as a weight gainer. It has 400+ calories per 100g and tastes great. I bought a weight gainer recently and it was expensive, and frankly I don't quite like the taste. So is drinking let's say 150g of milo per day harmful to me in any way? The carbohydrate to protein ratio is about 5:1, almost the same as my current weight gainer, was just wondering since there are a lot of nutrients in milo as well and it tastes wayyy better and it's a lot cheaper. Any advice would be awesome, thanks in advance.
