Installed Win 7 Pro 64bit and Ubuntu 11.04 64 bit. Win 7 is basically for gaming but my work needs me to be on Ubuntu.
I have enabled Nvidia Optimus with bumblebee project drivers. Here are the results after some quick benchmarks. Will d/l Unigine Heaven for both OSs and let you know.

Finally I got myself an Asus K53SM-130D yesterday!
Core i7-2670QM
8GB RAM
GT 630M 2GB
1TB HDD
Shots n Reviews will come in next few days my phone doesn't come with a flash
Pictures are awful
I'm not sure but AFAIK you can config any PC with server OS (Linux or Windows or anything) and do it. But if you want a proper server board & cpu your budget will be way short. Server class CPU (opteron or xeon) itself costs 15000+ (are there any cheaper ones I think other members can comment...
@all Thanks for your views
520M and 520MX are different 520M is inferior
while GT 630M is similar to GT 540M depending on chipsets used [ notebookcheck ]
I have a cousin who bought a HP G6-12xx couple of months back its a flimsy build. Same is the case with Acer below 30K range. I don't...
My preferences are
Good build quality
Good Keyboard (has an Acer with Island KBD its a nightmare)
Decent Performance
After Sales Support
OS Not Required
Questionnaire
1) What is your budget? (INR)
Rs. 35K-40K (45K if it justifies my shortlist has one)
2) What size notebook...
@all sorry for not posting any pictures, I gave the rig to my brother as he was moving to Vyzag (he's in Indian Navy & not at all good with PC, Don't know whom to trust there). And I was quite busy last few months..
@mods please close this thread
Has anyone checked first version.. specs like 366MHz proccy pushing onto a 7" screen makes me think its just a new idea to loot taxpayers money.. The videos during launch weren't showing much about user experience..
HP is running promotions like fuji P&S cameras with laptops I was offered 37K for g6-1117tx
with bag, camera & some other free stuff. check hp site for a dealer or call their customer care
@Cilus - thats what generally I thought. That Cab is 8kg of solid metal but stupidly cramped no thumb screws. I mean there is no tool less option for anything
Also is the stock cooler good for i7-960? There is no chance for OCing but long rendering is a possiblilty
Hi,

Motheboard| Intel DX58OG

Thanks folks I've fixed for 560Ti from MSI. Haven't finalized the full bill, the guys a good friend for last 10yrs or so. So I get best price, he will give me his purchase list :smile:
@ishu - I did check that thread. But felt it coming short on my requirements else I wouldn't have posted a new thread.
Also even though my budget is 30-40K I would prefer price to be on lower end of budget (already got a decent pc home. And very very light gaming on lap.)
And I will be...

Core i3/i5
1 GB dedicated gfx

So 560Ti it is. Rest of the config as suggested.. Must be going for MSI mostly have given the reqs. for a friend with a shop.
Whether MSI/ASUS/Zotac will be decided who has service reachability from my area.
As for Corsair GS600 suggestion is it good as Seasonic S12II...
MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK
I hope thats the one you all are suggesting in that case its 200W gpu rt?
So will I need to update the PSU? Rest of config will be the same as already suggested
its not that I run intensive apps I have found it hard to get ATi drivers run correctly lots of tweaking and stuff. I used to play Unreal, Doom 3 etc. long back (05/06??). I did for the thrill of getting it working. But nowadays I'm not that much into gaming or don't get much time to spend...
@Jaskanwar - from what I hear in linux forums and personal experience I'm doubtful about ATi drivers. As I use linux more (development mostly).
Where as I've been pretty happy with nvidia on linux.
Thank You all
Will be getting a saga or cx430 just to be safe.
@all this is more like standby machine, more for movies, music & backup. I'm looking for a totally new rig. Jaskanwar has given a nice config...
I'm looking for a processor upgrade for this. This is my current PC I'm looking for a new one. As I'm looking for a new PC, this will be more like a backup/entertainment system for family. Also will be dual-booting Win7 & Ubuntu 64bit LAMP server.
Current config is
Athlon II X2 250
