Hey Digitians ,
So finally after scrapping my Plans for a Desktop I am going to buy a laptop by this weekend.
I don't want a laptop since they have very poor performance compared to the Desktop at same price, but can't afford to keep a desktop due to portability issues.
Although , I am not going to take the laptop somewhere outside , but would prefer to roam around my house.
Requirements :
Screen : At least 14" [ 15' are preferable , though.]
Display : Matte / Glossy any would do , as far as the color reproduction is good. Need a bright display.
Battery : Not a concern , it'll always run on AC power.
Processor : Sandy Bridge Core I7 , Ivy Bridge Core I5/I7. No ULP models please.
Graphics : Dedicated GPu with at least GT 640m or similar. [ overclockable if possible.]
Keyboard : SHould be very accurate/convinient in typing as I need to type a lot of documentation and Code. This is the utmost priority.
Budget : Well , I had a budget of 40k initially , but changed it to 45k . However The max I can stretch will be not more than 50k.
Weight : 5Kgs at maximum. , weight is not a issue.
Purchase Location : Delhi. [ Will go to Nehru Place to purchase locally.]
Brands : Open for all , even acer and Toshibas. Can purchase imported ones too if warranty is available somehow.
Usage : Gaming , and Movies at priority. Development : Programming (NetBeans, Eclipse, Visual Studio , VMWare ) , ALso planning to try my hands of Maya and Photoshop.
I will mostly play BattleField3, NFSMW , MW3 , CS:GO , and other FPS games.
Online gaming is priority so a GBE will be preferred.
Duration of Use : Planning to keep it for next 1.5 years at least.
In Short I need the perfect desktop replacement under 50k budget strictly.!!!! Will p'bably do some bargaining with ShopWalas at N.P.
I am eyeing on the Lenovo Z500 , but the drawback is the screen resolution . Will it looks pixelated ????
I have checked the benchmark of almost all of the GPUs under 70k range , and GT650m seems to be the best.
Followed by GT645m , 640m , 7730 , 640m LE , 630m ,7670m.
I am happy with the frame rates provided by GT645m in most games. 30FPS at 1366x768 on medium to High settings with less AA will suffice.
Please let me know your opinions Guys , even after knowing the details I am still not able to decide.Need some practical opinions.
Thanks,.
EDIT : I am planning to buy a SSD as well within 2-3 months , so I was wondering whether it'll boost the gaming performance ?? Can I ask the Showroom guys to provide me with a SSD instead of HDD ?? SInce , I already have an external 7200RPM 64M Cache HDD SATA II.
