+1 to Lenovo G50-45. Try to get the 1 TB HDD and 8 GB ram version.

Asus A553SA-XX049D

I am continuously using this product till now and doesn't found any problems. On the continuous usage of 8hrs the laptop doesn't heats up and also the performance is also good. It gives a decent battery backup of more than 4hrs which is good. I doubted the performance of pentium processor but found out to be good for daily usages. Windows 10 runs flawless in it. I have also installed a Linux operating system aside Windows 10 and both runs smoothly. A suggestion while installing Windows 10 in it - Try to Install Windows 10 using EFI, then you can have the ASUS logo instead of the dull blue Windows logo!. ;) You will get a Driver DVD for Windows 10 64 bit OS with it. Really satisfied with the product.
