All laptop related queries here!!!

[dashing.sujay]

Multitasking is some thing I will have to work around if my lappy does not permit.

i5 will handle it with swift, don't worry.

How much help does a dedicated graphics card gives? I mean what about RAM and processor and graphics card? At what point do you need a graphic card?

Dedicated graphics card gives help when you need visual performance (eg games, a bit of image/visual edting). Still, editing is mostly CPU based task, normally multi threaded. The probook is good but it lacks a dGPU and you can't get a laptop with i5+ good dGPU in your budget. Increase a bit and go for i5 + 7670M combo, you won't regret.

Thanks rider for your reply. Really appreciate your help.

Its okay if 4 5 people can not watch, I added that only to know which kind of screen to choose, LCD or LED. I did not know that. No way I can take a 23+ monitor!!
The one you suggested looks cool, but overshoots in temrs of budget for me

Thanks a lot, I will get back with some other queries if you dont mind. I am extremely confused at the moment. Its really kind of you to reply and help me out.

Dedicated graphic card help to boost the graphic performance in gaming and other graphical and editing softwares. Though I suggested you are 3rd gen core-i5 laptop. It has integrated Intel 4000 graphics that is good enough for basic needs and will full fill your requirements. But it is still better to get a laptop with dedicated graphic card but for this you have to spend 15k more if you are looking good battery life and windows 8.

Hi.. One of my friends needs to purchase a laptop within a range of 35000-42000, and has considered-

Lenovo Essential G580 (59-348965).
And also the Asus K53SM-SX010D, mentioned in the above post. The requirements are normal i.e. surfing, multimedia, and a bit of gaming.

Can you please suggest which one would be a better choice? And also, if there are better alternatives?
Thanks.

There will no new laptops with GT 650M in the market. After 3 months or so you will see new laptop models with superior new GPU.
