Oh my God! O Thou great being, this fool needs a gasming laptop. We mere mortals haven't even seen such a divine creation, please enlighten thee on its supreme existence and alleviate our souls by showering thy kindness and infinite wisdom on thee. :mrgreen:
Babu, tell us your budget first! :twisted:

My advice to you is ...... concentrate on the features and look ....

gaming absolutely sucks in laptops (even with a dedicated graphic card) ...... I have used HP , DELL and Vaio laptops ......

Rating
Excellent
Good
ok
Not Bad
Terrible

HP - Cost - Excellent , Looks - ok , Customer service - Good

DELL - Cost - Good , Looks -Good ,Customer service - Excellent

VAIO - Cost-ok ,Looks-Excellent ,Customer service - ok

All had more or less the same features , with very little difference in price . Rating is relative to each other

This is my laptop:

Go check it out. Its kinda old, but it gets me 60 fps in GW, 25-30 fps in Prince of Persia (the 2008 one) and ~50 fps in Half Life 2. Hmm...those are pretty much the only games I'm playing right now.

If you are looking for something a bit more up to date...check this baby out:

*laptoping.com/asus-w90.html

Think its available in India atm, although I'm not too sure. I'm waiting for the new GTX 295 to be released in a laptop form factor before I upgrade my G1S.

ASUS ftw :)
