I have a budget of around 65k. I have read each and every post from the very first page, and I think my options have boiled down to 3.
1. 17r se (My choice initially)
2. 15r se with i7 (RAM doesn't matter 4/8 GB)
3. Samsung NP550 (Which is not available in stores here, nor in Flipkart)
Important info:
1. I live in Kolkata but won't have any trouble ordering from Dell site as I have a friend who's ready to receive it in Bangalore and bring it home for me when he returns.
2. I don't have a problem with weight, I can carry around 3.3kgs of a laptop that has a 17" screen and a 650m beast inside it.
3. Will the 17" 1600x900 screen be any better than a 15" screen with 1366x768 ?

Which one should I go for? I play most of the modern games including MP3 if you really want to know.

Thanks all for your valuable inputs. I have learned a lot about 14R SE and 15R SE. Will inquire about the Samsung 550P tomorrow with local dealer.

@har, Which is the new dv6 you are talking about?

The new dv6 launched in US with ivy bridge,1080p option,gt650m,etc
It has backlit which samsung doesnt have.I think its dv6 700x.
But I think it will cost 60k. It will probably come by this month.

You were right. The new dv6 also gets really got(90's). It seems the intel specified throttling temp for cpu is a high 105 degrees for ivy bridge.

105*C in a CPU :shock: impossible!! It's T junction is 105*C.
That hp dv6 model are 45W Ivy bridge, not new 35W models.. which comes now, hp is soon updating all laptops.

New dv6 models are going to launch soon.

I think their is some issues to order in paschim banga, you have to pay some taxes, flipkart is now completely ruined and useless don't buy anything from them. You can buy in small selling sites like campusoft.com where samsung laptops are available with 2 yrs special warranty and high discount.

Anybody buying a Windows 7 system after June 2nd is eligible for an upgrade to Windows 8 for Rs 700. *windowsupgradeoffer.com/en-US/Home/ProgramInfo

You may want to stick to Windows 7 because of this offer.
I wouldn't read too much into that. Windows 8 review isn't too good, those who have used it have been pretty frustrated by it.

And congrats rider for your 1000 posts, you've been a major contributor here :)

So afterall samsung np550p5c-s02in w/ i7+gta 650mx+15.6" 1600*900 +jbl 2.1 config @58-59k is steal!

yea + 2-3 years warranty makes it a legendary deal!

Yea, windows 8 looks like a tablet OS in a laptop, it doesn't impress with mouse or touchpad thing. Thanks for you admiration.:razz:

hp laptops are much better in terms of quality and performance it is 3rd best after macbooks and thinkpads. They don't compromise with hardware quality, wait for the launch. Hp models are with mainstream GT 650M 2GB GDDR5 GPU.

There is not much difference if you compare core-i5 inspiron 17R's GT 650M 2GB DDR5 with core-i7 samsung GT 650M 2GB DDR3 and core-i7.
Both GT 650M are on same clock.
