Thanks for your answers
Suyash24seven had u bought the Asus k53sm-sx010d . How did u feel about it ? I have heard a that nvidia cards produces much heat but Asus is equipped with ice cool technology so does this really works, I mean if u r using Asus for long time with playing game does it remain cool?????
how is build quality ?
Now whether I should buy during festive season(durgapuja) or not from Kolkata , is it advantageous to buy during that period?
I have heard that festive season they give refurbished or faullty model is it true?
thanks in advance

My friend uses ASUS and icecool technology really does works. He is using it for 3 months and no problems till date.

It is a very good laptop....i m using it....
the lappy remains cool...but still havent tried much games
build quality and speakers r good too

Well TBH speakers are a bit of letdown to me. I mean they are not loud enough and good as compared to Dell or HP at all. But still gyod enough for sure.

The speakers are not up to the mark IMO. I don't depend much on the on-board speakers anyway.

My cousin recently bought the i5 one for 36k. He loves it, and says super vfm.

The issues which I have heard about these laptops is that the screen and keyboard are not good.
Apart from that they have got the best build quality with no heating issues at all.

You could have got it shipped to some of your friend or relatives place.

Is HomeShop18 as reliable as Flipkart in terms of safe delivery of the products? Shopped from them for the first time last night.

They are good. Don't worry
