Need to buy a laptop with these MUST config, please help.

OS: Don't Care, preferably no OS.
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo(only), GHz as high as possible within budget.
RAM: Fast 4GB.
HDD: 160GB or more; high-perfoemance if possible within budget.
Graphics Card: nVidia GeForce 8800 or better (must).
Screen Size: greater than 15", preferably 17" if possible within budget.

Budget: 65k

Dell XPS M1530 doesn't have 8800, so don't post that as suggestion.

First, You won't get any in India.
Second, 65K is too low for it.

I am 99% sure that you won't get laptop with 8800 chip on it in India. And definitely not inside 65k.

Dell XPS M1730 comes with Dual 8800M also but only in USA.

check these:

Gateway
Alienware
Dell

They are providing 8800M based laptops in USA, so you may check with someone traveling from USA to India

OK, I agree that I can't get the laptop I wanted. Can it be make sure that with nvidia 8600, I'll be able to play GTA 4, Far Cry, Crisis, Grid, etc. with at least 800x600 res.? If yes then may be I should buy Dell XPS M1530.

you can play all those games at a higher resolution. Except Crysis, you can play all the games at full resolution.
