The 520 MX is not a very good card IMO for gaming. If you can spend a bit more, get this-

Asus K Series K53SV-SX520V Laptop: Flipkart.com: Compare, Review Asus Notebook


Yes. Its over your budget by 7k, but it would be money well spent as gaming is a priority :)

Go for ASUS. One of my friends uses the laptop mentioned by thetechfreak. He plays games like GTA 4, POP 3 etc for around 4 to 5 hours and has got no battery and heating issues.

Go for Asus K53sv-sx520D.. it comes DOS pre-installed on it! I own the same laptop and I have played games like Battlefield3,COD MW3,Crysis 2,Saints row3,Mafia2 etc and the gameplay was butter smooth with maxed out settings :)

All these are pretty bad options as your sole purpose seems to be gaming.

DO NOT spend 35k on a laptop for gaming.
All these cheap laptops basically suck for gaming and most of them will die in a year or so.
This thing has been mentioned many times here.
Go and assemble a killer gaming desktop for 50k.

Lets get one thing straight...atleast in India you need to spend around 100K to get a semidecent gaming laptop,which is absolutely not worth it.

Vaios are never meant for gaming.
If you are hell bent on gaming on a laptop...save up a lot more and look into gaming machines from MSI,Asus or Sager.
And let me assure you,the 17 incher monsters are barely even transportable.
The 17 inch Alienware weighs more than freakin 5kg(I have not used or seen any other gaming laptop,but they are no lighter)

thnk u fr response red dragon..

but m nt a die hard gamer to spend evn 50k...
i wab one fr moderate gaming.

GT520M 1GB with 6GB ram n core i3 is enough??
or shud i go fr GT540M 2GB with 4GB ram n i5, paying 10k more??
obviousely money matters...

so, 1GB gfx z enough fr HD n blue-ray movies or i must hav 2GB??
