Hi Everyone. i am new to TDF. i am planning to buy a laptop and liked the config. of Asus K53SD-SX809D. I am not a big fan of laptops with AMD processors. So can you guys give some reviews regarding the the above laptop or suggest something within the same price range. Thanks.

Samsung NP300E5Z-A0HIN is better option, the specs are value for money. You will get core-i5, 4GB RAM, 750 GB HDD and awesome slim bezel anti-glare LED display by samsung. The battery backup is 2x better that is upto 6 hours and cycles are 3x better 1000.

Yeah Rs. 49,999/- Technically under 50 K... lol.

steal at this price.!!

but the samsung laptop doesn't have a graphics card. so i think its not possible to play games like BF3 & COD on this laptop

Check this out Lenovo Essential G Series G580 (59-324061)
Locally it is available for around 31-32k.
It comes with 3rd gen i5,hd4000 as IGP and contains usb3.0 ports.
If you dont want to go for Amd trinity-based HP Pavilion G6-2005AX then you can go with the lenovo one.

Hello guys,

I have a small doubt here...I read articles on the web that state that ivy bridge processors are not actually better than sandy bridge processors...

Intel's Ivy Bridge Hotter Than Sandy Bridge When Overclocked

Apparently, ivy bridge is cooler at the original frequency but when it is overclocked, the heat shoots up due to faulty solder material...

Ivy bridge is more power efficient at the original stock speed though...Could this be the trouble that Samsung users were facing? But, the Dell Inspiron 15r se didnt have any trouble...Now, I'm confused...:-?:-?:-?:-?

Different thermal technology.
This will answer your question:
Why is Ivy Bridge so hot and bothered? - The Tech Report

Safe temps for i7 bu intel is 105 degrees. So yeah temps are more.

Samsung problem--gt650m is a bleeding-edge card and so proper drivers arent out yet. It will get better with time. The new beta drivers have improved the performance and temperatures.

Guys ordered Samsung NP550P.

Order details:i5+6GB ram+GT650m+2 year warranty(its not 3 year, the shopkeeper was wrong)=50k

i7 model with blu ray and 8GB available at 57k.
Only silver colour.

The second option is better I feel but i5 is more than enough for my needs and fits nicely in my budget :)

HURRAYYYYY !!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :)

I will make a new thread(should i post here under laptops or under reviews section ??).Also please give me a list of tests and benchmarks to run.Is 3dmark and 3dvantage enough ? And I only have crysis and assasins creed 2 setups with me now. Will post fps.
