If you need a decent gpu, i dont think you'll get a better model than the 5755G series.
But battery might not last over 3hrs :/
IIRC theres another model from the Timeline series which has a gpu, the 5830TG. Check it out.
A relative recently bought the non-gpu model, the 5830T with i3, paid 32.8k for it. Battery lasts a lil' over 4hrs on normal use (without gaming). But Acer claims battery life upto 8hrs. Did Acer tested it on standby mode? >_>

Dell Inspiron is also a better option within that range.
