1) What is your budget? (INR or USD)
Rs 60k (or the equivalent in USD). Can be extended upto 70, if it is really worth it.


2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?
No preferences.


3) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
NO DELL!


4) What are the primary tasks will you be performing with this notebook?
Primarily gaming.

5) What screen resolution(s) & type (glossy/matte) would you prefer?
No preferences.


6) Anything else you would like to say? (eg: local purchase, ASS,matte/glossy finish)
The idea is that I want to be able to game decently for the next 3 - 5 years (I'm not sure if that's even possible anymore). Immediate games on my mind are GTA 5, FIFA 14 and Guild Wars 2, which I wanna play in the best possible settings considering the budget strain. The only reason I'm not buying a PC is because I'll be required to relocate quite often.

I've got a relative going to the USA during mid-November, and plan on asking him to get it for me when he goes. Hence, I've got a couple of months to wait in case a new model, if any, is on its way.

Lastly, this is going to be my very first purchase (for myself) from my very first job. I've been saving up for this baby, and will continue to do so for the next two months, so help me out folks! _/\_

Indeed y500 is one option coz y510p is kinda out of his budget.
