You can look at options from Dell and HP on their respective sites.

Dell Inspiron 6400 is a good choice because you get to config your own comp as per your specs, and the prices are comparatively cheeper than others.

You can also look at the option of getting your lappy from US, if you can; as the festival season is on and you can get the same lappy approx 15-20k cheeper.

@ maven

If u looking for dedicated Graphics Card feature than I suggest you to buy Alienware.They are know for these kind of features.Or I suggest get ur laptop from USA as these features are totaly overlooked by people in India as they use their LAptops to chk mail or use office tools which does not require any high end 3d Card.
