no laptop will give 3-4 hours backup if you are rendering graphics intensive images on a 1080p screen.4gb ram is the minimum for rendering tasks so get at least 8gb ram for smooth operation.rendering & video encoding puts much more stress on hardware than regular tasks so hardware quality matters more(aka go for established & solid brands).

Acer one looks promising but then it comes with Free Dos(if I'm correct no pre installed OS),that would be an issue because I don't want to spend extra bucks on OS.And for others,they are way beyond my budget. That's why I specifically mentioned I'm on tight bugdet.

I know but battery backup wouldn't be an issue.And what you suggest seems legit.But I am restricted by my budget and need laptop like next month as the sem starts.

You can install OS in your Acer laptop without spending money too

If not Acer & Lenovo(because of no OS), get the Dell one atleast.... You will use it for next 3-4 years atleast, so spend a bit more on that Dell one, it is worth it...

What about this one?
What about its GPU,is it good enough?

I know I can install OS and I'm not going for pirated ones.If there is any other way to get genuine OS then "Enlighten me" !

students get it very cheap from microsoft. look for that offer. also OEM versions / the one to be sold with a new system also come at a lower price.

Please don't buy that... That GPU is crap + TN displays are also crap

Better get this or the Acer one:
Dell Inspiron 3542 TS Notebook (4th Gen Core i5- 4210U- 4GB RAM- 1TB HDD- Win8.1- 39.62cm (15.6)-2GB Graph) (3542541TB2BT) (Black) - Buy Laptops Online @ Best Price on Snapdeal.com
