Hi Guyzz,

Need advise on a decent Gaming laptop with Budget 60K INR with good cooling.

I have used my brothers laptop ASUS- K55V Laptop but it has Thermal Shutdown Issue.
here is the post ASUS service centre is not helping at all --> *forum.digit.in/hardware-q/198595-asus-k55v-laptop-thermal-shutdown-issue.html

1) What is your budget? (INR or USD)
60-65k INR

2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?
Mainstream; 15" - 16" screen

3) What are the primary tasks you will be performing with this notebook?
Gaming

4) Any typical configuration in your mind you're eying for ?
900 series GForce M or GT - 2/4 GB
I-5 with 4th or 5th Gen is also ok
1 TB Hard drive
Better cooling architecture is a must no more Thermal Shutdown!

5) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
a. Like: All other popular brands found in India
b. Dislike: ASUS

6) Anything else you would like to say?
Screen resolution - dont have much Idea about this but need for Gaming.
Battery back up - normal (3-4hrs)
Purchase place - online/ store any would do

Google is not very helpful with searching for good cooling architecture laptop.

Your experience and help will be deeply appreciated.

Regards,

Wilfred

Increase your budget or import a clevo/sager from xoticpc. You won't get a laptop with GTX 1000 series GPU otherwise.

Not a Big Fan of ASUS went to 3-4 service centres.
ASUS be like... Graphics? Games? what are those? is it new? which game you faced problem... blah blah in the end they say change motherboard but not sure if problem will be solved... this is the same reply found in many ASUS Service Centres in Mumbai..
They have no clue about gaming issues.
FYI... I have used my brothers laptop ASUS- K55V Laptop but it has Thermal Shutdown Issue.

don't want a 1000 series, 900 series with M or GT is fine no need for GTX or any overclocked version. dont want overheating I don't play Games with a AC in my Room.

Take a look at the gaming benchmarks of 950m and if you are ok with them, get a laptop having the same. That's the best GPU you can get in a laptop of your budget.

Wow good specs but are they with good architecture? since its I-7 and this cheap Manufacturer don't invest build quality if they make it cheap. but If build is good I can definitely consider these options.

I'm not sure but my friend had purchased Lenovo Z50-70 for around 40k, he uses it for casual gaming (CSGO, DOTA 2), Android development and Video editing. Served him well for 2year no issues (he doesn't use cooling pad). Lenovo has Z51-70 series as well, but not sure how they fare.
I got a ASUS ROG GL552JX for around 60k, it is a good configuration but outdated. Then next best option would be Asus R510JX-DM230T.

For serious gaming I would agree with SaiyanGoku and suggest to go for latest tech.

Doesn't ships to India and Dell India sells it for a ridiculous price of 80k, IIRC.

Oct 1, 2016 at 9:53 PM
oh well 80k its way too above my budget.
Thanks for Confirming SaiyanGoku.
My only concern is overheating issues, looking for a 60k laptop which can do decent gaming with games like Borderlands 2 and such.
I-5 processor is enough.
I suffered a big blow already using a overheating Asus K55V with thermal Shutdown in 15 mins with games even with gaming config.
So being extra careful.

First of all, that laptop you keep mentioning is not a gaming laptop (610M is a joke) and is bound to have heating and thermal throttling issues.

Would be better to wait out for GTX 1050 for laptops and hope that those come under 70k.

Indian laptops aren't priced good. Laptops with GTX 1060 cost around 80-85k in usa. So it might be possible to get GTX 1050 laptops around the same price (but hopefully under 65k, no matter what)

That's because you are looking at wrong places. Sellers on ebay, paytm have been selling them for around 70k (cashback/discount included) IIRC.

Well can't argue with that.. Laptop prices are ridiculous in India.. Buying a gaming laptop can only be justified if u travel much or like live in hostel or something.. Where u might need to carry ur laptop to college
