Seriously ????
By any chance did you think it as GT 820M ??
OK.... GT 840M is the 2nd best GPU avalable in your budget in India. GT750M in the Acer one is the best (its overall better for gaming)
Get the Acer one or Dell one with GT 840M ....
Otherwise import something better if you have relatives in USA or Singapore or Hong kong or in some Arab country....
(My friend got a Dell laptop with i5 ulv, 4GB RAM, GT 820M, 1TB HDD, Win 8.1 @ 28k from Dubai)

I do have relatives in USA, UK, and my businessman mamaji (Mother's brother) who travels around the world. Of them my mamaji is the closest to me in terms of relation but he only goes out on middle-later half of year.(When I'll be in college and can't buy one, I don't wanna wait that long) dunno about other relatives, they are just too distant xD I will try though
How to check the prices out for the respective countries? (Except on Amazon, I know how amazon works) what are some great countries to buy laptop from? And what are the famous e-stores there?WARNING:: I will not buy it from any other country if it doesn't have an international warranty card. Please understand that. I've seen separate components coming with international warranty card, dunno about an assembled laptop.

You're welcome. I just stumbled upon that model while window shopping at a local mall yesterday and immediately liked the look and feel of it.

I was also checking out sites like alienware and xoticpc , any chances? Should I get one from there ?

Buy from xotic pc only if you wouldn't mind lack of A.S.S and have anybody in USA to bring it over. Else add 10-15% extra for customs and shipping. Don't go below 960M in that case.
And alienware in 50k?

Maybe just 3-4 people..... Buying such an expensive thing from another country, no one would like to take such a risk..... If you don't get the product or a defective/damaged one, these thoughts prevent people from importing ....

Yeah that is something which has always bugged me. I mean you spend a crapload of money and you got a defective part so getting a workaround would be a pain in the @$$.

Chances of getting a defective laptop in India (which are just mass imported)>>>>chances of getting a defective clevo/sager after thorough testing from xotic pc

Workaround? Do people from xoticpc not replace it themselves?

Reliability + better config >> Getting a replacement + lower config

After sales service i.e. warranty.

No warranty? wtf? -_- And what are the chances of getting imported detected product? And no warranty if it is defective :/ so.......... Relatives afterall :/

Clevo has only US/Canada warranty. MSI, Asus, Alienware have international warranty AFAIK. MSI India has a weird condition for that though.

They should give full replacement for DOA products, but DOA is extremely rare case.

What about xoticpc? And never heard about Clevo tbh. MSI's laptops can get pricy for same hardware of dell and HP laptops, but they look cool too
