i want a laptop for casual gaming, and my budget us 43k ;)

so how is this laptop, i have some doubts please clear it
The Dell Online Store: Build Your System

i read that it has 10/100 ethernet, that means it doesn't have a 10/100/1000 ethernet and if it doesn't have, does that mank any point for not choosing this laptop?

how much is the difference between GT 630M vs 7670M vs 640M?
And do 3RD Gen Intel Processor runs hotter than there sandy bridge counterparts? :-?

if you have any other suggestions in 43k range then do post the link of the laptop? personally i prefer only three brands AAASUS, DELL and SONY(my favorite) ;)

and yes one more think, look at review of that dell laptop, a person said that it doesn't have a numerical keypad? why? :-?

I personally love asus. They make the best machines at best cost. I would recommend this particular model and fits in nicely in your budget:
Asus K53SM-SX010D / 2nd Gen Ci5/4 GB/750 GB/2GB graphics DOS: Flipkart.com: Compare, Review Asus Notebook

If you want to check out user reviews you can go here :

Plus K53sm has a dedicated graphics card of 2GB. Hence great for gaming.

GT630<GT640<<7670.
And the first lot of IVB processors which was not officially released also runs hotter, but the one which are there is the market are not supposed to run hot that much.
And generally now a days 15" laptops have a numerical keyboard while it is not there in 14" laptops.
Right now dell inspiron seems to be the best option as they have come up with IVB processors while other brands are falling behind.
I suggest you to wait for sometime and let other brands come up with IVB processors based laptops.
