Banned him for behaving like an idiot on too many occasions.

(Asking for a friend)
Need a laptop between 40-50k
His requirments-
-Full HD screen
-Screen size: normal(this is what he said, so mainstream size:p)
-he'll be using it for mainly office work(lots of number punching) and basic home use.
-Laptop should have full numeric keypads(this is important for him)

I'm steering away from Lenovo because of their superfish fiasco, but i see no other options.
please recommend guys.

There is no laptop, in India that is, in that budget with FHD screen other than Lenovo Z50-70 or Flex 2. If you are willing to import, XOTIC PC | FORCE 16GC (29-029) w/ 860M (MSI GE60 ApachePro Barebones) is the best option around 52k.

MSI GP60 is not much different than Z50-70. Both have underpowered DDR3 840M compared to the DDR5 860M in Force 16GC. GP60 also has half the ram and lesser HDD space compared to Force 16GC.

Spending more is no problem but spending on a similar thing which is available for a lower price is bad decision.

It's not just laptop, he buy overpriced/costlier stuff all the time. Anyway the primary reason of me recommending him laptop in lower price bracket is, the main use is office work, not gaming/media consumption.
As there are no other options, I've recommend him the z50

let it be man. We face this every now and then and the best you can do is to suggest a person and cannot force that person to buy a certain thing that is his personal opinion. Always advice and let the choice be on the other person shoulder.

Okay sir, this is what I'll do then.
Thanks for showing the way ☺.

What would be the best laptop for gaming at less than 40k right now? Asking for a friend.

But if cant get the nvidia gt 840m in the budget u can go for a laptop with gt 740m atleast.
my friend has a laptop with gt 740m and i've seen him play far cry 3 , 4, nfs mw 2012, battlefield 3,4 at 1366x768 with playable frame rates. ( ofcourse u have to tone down graphics but u do get to experience the game play which in my opinion makes it all worth it .)

740M is 2 generation old. No point in even going for a laptop with 800M series series when 900M series was out in October last year IMHO.
