Mine too, but it has become very slow, either due to HDD getting old or because of the OS (last reformatted 4-5 years back). I'm pleasantly surprised that it has lasted this long, especially considering that it would run for 12-18 hours daily for 4 years when I was in college.

I'd say it's a hardware issue as the format didn't fix it. Try cleaning the dust out of your laptop, that's pretty much the only thing you can do. - - - Updated - - - Guys please suggest the latest graphics driver that I can use on Windows 7. Also do I need to upgrade Windows to play newer...

Purchased several games from there, just buy from sellers with 100% rating and always get G2A shield for higher priced games.

It's a good deal, also buy their warranty. But does adding 970M exceed your budget ? Please, no. They are not for gaming.

OP do at least get a quote from Azom. They also have local presence in some cities so you might be able to try one out.

My friend is going to have a look at the screen of Y50 the next time he goes to Bangalore and then decide. He might go for it in spite of not liking the screen if he can get Y50 + new panel under 80k. Thanks for the help everyone :)

A search in the thread gave me this post. I guess it does void the warranty.

It's available on Snapdeal for 73k, so I'm guessing the local price would be around that or cheaper. But yes it's still too much to charge for DDR3 850M. And would replacing the panel void the warranty ? And how and from where can you get it replaced ?

That's a good one :rofl::rofl::rofl: - - - Updated - - - Guys how is this one ? Asus G551JK Specs are mostly the same as HP Envy, sharing the poor 850M but having a proper mobile i7.

You are asking him not only to increase the budget but increase it by 20K ! :shock: That's impossible. Even if it was I would have made him buy from Azom then. Alienware is the most overpriced of them all. - - - Updated - - - Unless someone's filthy rich. Wait, they would also rather go for...

If anyone from Digit is reading this, please run an article about how big huge companies are ripping off consumers, and post it on your website too not just in magazine. And while you're at it also review the laptops offered by Azom.

They are simply trying to fool consumers. And many must have been and would be fooled seeing the words i7 and 850M. Heck, half the people would simply consider it a great deal because of a "4 GB" graphic card.

I know, that's why I asked for suggestions.

I would too, and my friend would, if budget permitted him. I am gonna start saving :p The Envy is on flipkart for 74k. I have asked him to personally take a look at the screen of Y50 and go for Envy only if he really hates that screen.

I have asked for a quote. Let's see what they say. :) - - - Updated - - - I got a call from Azom after about half an hour of asking for a quote. He took my requirements, but unfortunately the gaming model with lowest specs still costs 87k including taxes. So I guess my friend will go for Envy...
