hi seamon I asked around for g56jr but no store has stock available. Asus people are saying I need to book the laptop and will take 10 days to get the laptop.

^get it from flipkart Asus CN135H G56JR Laptop Rs.81600 Price in India - Buy Asus CN135H G56JR Laptop Black Online - Asus: Flipkart.com

Get the ASUS one, its worth the 10 day wait !! Better than Y510p

iHi everyone. Thank you for your replies I will search around for the asus but if I don't find it will have to stick with the lenovo y510p. I can extend my budget by another 10k is there any other laptop I should checkout?

Why not get it from fk.

You can use that extra 20kish to import the second Y510p GPU from abroad.

Hey guys I think I have to buy the lenovo Y510P. If I get the 2nd GPU for the lenovo will I have to use a different power brick?

Yes, that was the case with Y500

You can get another spare battery if you are concerned about battery life. Yes, every laptop with quad core i7+GT 750m+ will have a short battery life(3-4 hrs).

Yes. You have to buy the 170w one.

Yes. You have to buy the 170w one.

not battery life, i meant the fps drop when the charger is disconnected-like the battery provides half the watts needed(60W instead of 120W) or something

All gaming laptops have that problem. I don't think batteries can provide more than 90w.

Does the Y510p have optimus???
The Y500 doesn't... :-(

Yes, but you can't use it whist the 2nd GPU is in the Ultrabay.
In Y500, it was disabled at a hardware level.

Oh... That's a downer... :-(

I think in this budget he's more likely to get the core i7 version.

Absolutely he should have got i7 version.

I got the core i7 version. Will post pictures asap.
Played LOL on ultra settings and got a constant 60fps. Also played Watchdogs at medium to high settings and got really good frames with that too.

Only problem I have faced soo far is with the heating and the touchpad which is really bad.

Running LoL at ultra is not a big deal. Try Crysis 3.
