My budget is around 40k .. I can extend it to 45k max.

I'm nt able to decide between:


1. Asus K53SM-SX010D / 2nd Gen Ci5/4 GB/750 GB/2GB graphics DOS - Rs. 39366 - 2nd gen

2. Lenovo Z Series Z580 (59-333346) Laptop 3rd Gen Ci5/4GB/500GB/1GB Graphics/Win 7 HB - 3 years warranty - 3rd generation

3. HP Pavilion G6-2004TX Laptop 2nd Gen Ci5/4GB/500GB/Win 7 HB/2GB Graphics (Sparkling Black) - 2nd gen .. :p .. 2 yrs warranty .. love the gpu

4. HP Pavilion G6-2005AX Laptop AMD A8 Quad Core/4GB/500GB/Win 7 HB/1GB Graphics :razz: .. love its price :mrgreen: .. 2yrs warranty

Should I get a quad-core.. or go for a 3rd gen intel.. or 2nd gen is fine .. :|

I'll use it for gaming too ..

If you buy a laptop and don't use it properly. Don't take care of it, even a netbook will start to heat up. And all laptops heat up when you run games.

BTW, after a long time heard about bad service by Dell.

HP Pavilion G6-2016TX. But compared to 7730 in Dell, this one is slow.

^Why not save 2k and get this, difference is that the CPU is 2nd gen which hardly matters here IMO.
