OK.....I will explain u
I bought a laptop for 64k(don't consider its screen).....I could have bought a laptop with i5 & a good GPU for gaming...but graphics quality in games will not be as good as I get now. Moreover my laptop is more futureproof.

So if u spend 50k & get a decent config, it would be better.......although u can do the same things by buying a 40k laptop but the games will demand more power in future releases....so its better a get a good one now rather than woe at that time. I don't think u will buy a new laptop every year..
