Fill the questionnaire.

Get Y50 with 960M under 80k.

Asus ROG GL552JX for 60k
Asus A550JX for 50k.

960M is worth it but check if any of them comes with IPS screen. Don't get the 860M version now.

Get any of Asus ones for your previous thread.

ROG one has better HDD, looks better, extra slot for SSD, IPS anti glare 1080p screen compared to other ASUS one

Lenovo one has a disadvantage over ROG one due to TN display (price too). Updated Y50 might be released soon with IPS display & 960M

They aren't going to learn right? Y50's declared price is 50k as per zauba. They're ripping off by not giving IPS screen for 80k budget.

They will be charging high there are no seconds thoughts on that.
The reason is mainly MSI as they are selling high priced laptops, so lenovo is also thinking they could also sell them at that price range. ANd of late Z series is taking place of y series in lenovo lineup and they are slowly increasing the price of y series to a more upper segment.

ROG is your best bet. Though it has its cons.
-4 GB RAM
-DOS
-No gaming headset included
-Insane fingerprint magnet
-10k more for ROG brandname/mouse/bag

If its a deal breaker get the A550JX, if you dont like DOS/4 gig ram/no headset/warranty risk get it from flipkart for 70k.

what does an ips panel offer apart from wider viewing angle? TN panel has better latency compared to IPS, so it is advantageous in certain situations afaik
i havent seen any new tn or ips panel of late so i dont really know how would they look, my recent experience with a tn panel is with the one on sony w700b , which has a good viewing angle, its a tv still !
