    Lenovo Samsung NP550P5C-S04/06IN vs Lenovo Z500

    Thanks for all the replies. One more thing, is it worth waiting till Diwali to get it? I know Flipkart has Diwali offers but does it extend to laptops as well?

    Lenovo Samsung NP550P5C-S04/06IN vs Lenovo Z500

    I checked the Samsung thread and it seems it still heats up and throttles during gaming and some mentioned that changing the MB fixed their problem. For me, the primary concern is this itself, since I do plan on gaming, but only maybe for a couple of hours or so at a time. If there is no...

    Lenovo Samsung NP550P5C-S04/06IN vs Lenovo Z500

    Hey guys, after two months of research I've decided to go for either the Lenovo Z500 or the Samsung NP550P5C-S04 or S06IN. I need help choosing one over the other: The only reason I'm hesitating to go for the Samsung is that I've read that there are throttling issues. Apart from that I see no...

    Nah, not technically a fan of either, but the 740M + disk drive against 2GB more RAM + 8750M is the deciding factor.

    I don't think I'll be going for the Dell, its beyond my budget for getting both the laptop and the OS. So right now, it's between the Z500 and the Samsung.

    Laptop for moderate gaming (Price: Upto 50k)

    Based on game benchmarks from notebookcheck, the 8750m is performing considerable worse in many games compared to both the 740m and the 640m. Wierdly, the 640m is performing better than 740m in some cases. Could this be due to poor drivers? Also, keep in mind that the benchmarks for the 740m is...

    Laptop for moderate gaming (Price: Upto 50k)

    Thanks a lot for mentioning the Dell. I wasn't even aware that it existed... but I think it is beyond my budget, seeing as the laptop itself is about 49k and its has Linux. I love Linux, but most games need complicated workarounds and some refuse to run, so to get both the laptop AND Win7, it'll...
