That ^^ one or Lenovo Y500(if u can increase your budget by 3-4k max. , check its price locally)

y500. Ask your elders for 4k more. :mrgreen:

Really it's worth it.

Yep. A major difference being the type of VRAM used. Its GDDR5 GT650 , which if overclocked can get past GTX660m easily. And Mind it , GT650m(kepler) is an awesome overclocker provided a decent cooling system.

hey guys .. how is the performance of AMD Radeon™ HD 7650M??

My dad is pushing me towards dell .. and they have this graphic card

hey guyz .. can you recommend a laptop in HP/Toshiba.

My father says only these 2 brands

HP & Toshiba have craps at this price point. Dell atleast gives a 7730M (~640M). Tell your dad about Lenovo, its also a reputed brand........

Tell your dad if he want to waste his hard earned cash then he can go with any one other wise lenovo is vfm.

Dude! Hold on for a second and think about getting a gaming rig instead!
I'm kinda regretting! Crysis 3 on my S02 get cpu to 90+ while all med settings!

YOu're talking about Crysis 3 on a Gt650m at 900p.!!
And don't you use a laptop cooler .??

Toshiba doesn't have anything good to offer for gaming at this price point.
And HP has a few , but nothing near to Lenovo Y500 .

And keep it in mind that a GDDR5 GPU will be considerably faster than a GDDR3 GPU.
The samsung one has GDDR3 , whereas Y500 has GDDR5. THe later will be atleast 20-25% faster in major titles.

As far as heating is concerned , any laptop will heat-up while playing graphic/CPU intensive games. Even the Alienware does heats-up but due to efficient cooling it stays under limit.
Use a laptop cooler if possible , while playing games.

Cooling pad is goddamn gimmick for me! (or else my lappy is trolling me)
It doesn't reduce temps more than 2-3C . I got CM Notepal U2 BTW

Get something that suits your laptops design. Something that blows air directly into vents. And make sure to take out the battery while playing.
Though , I agree that most laptop coolers are nothing but gimmick.
But I think ~85-90C on Crysis 3 at that settings should be considered as normal for i7 3610QM.

I played C3 today and it reached around 90C for few secs.
You know what I did ?? I have a Desert Cooler lying around ,

Emptied out the Water and Kept the laptop alongisde and started playing. Trust me , It's under 75C .

(Counter-Trolling.)

Nothing works better than that.

But it is int portable.

@OP at 60k you could get a keka rig with an i5k and a 7870 or even an 7970 and other goodies.

For gaming Y500 is great, max temp. measured by me- 75 C

AFAIK yeah

my friend's sammy goes beyond 95C. while playing GRFS.

These must be max temperatures right. Its been long since I played games (majorly because new games wont run on my laptop) and I dont know how high the temperatures used to go. As of now, with a few applications running, my system temperature shows around 50 degrees and it seems quite hot to me. I cannot imagine 75.

What would be such normal temperatures on modern laptops, like Y500 or Sammy S05, with say Chrome with 12 tabs, Adobe Reader, VLC Player and Powerpoint open?
