Avoid both. Look for deals on Legion 5 with R7 5800H + 3060. Ryzen 6000 is like 5% faster than 5000 series, so not a big jump. Legion 5 has excellent build & thermals. My friend bought Legion 5 with QHD panel for 118k back in May, it went to as low as 112k with card offers on amazon after that.

This is the model, maybe it will drop to 120k or lower again.

This GP66 has a full-power 3070, not sure how much a better GPU will benefit you though:
MSI GP66 Leopard Core i7 11th Gen - (16 GB/1 TB SSD/Windows 10 Home/8 GB Graphics/NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070/144 Hz) GP66 Leopard 11UG-693IN Gaming Laptop Rs.173990 Price in India - Buy MSI GP66 Leopard Core i7 11th Gen - (16 GB/1 TB SSD/Windows 10 Home/8 GB Graphics/NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070/144 Hz) GP66 Leopard 11UG-693IN Gaming Laptop Black Online - MSI : Flipkart.com
It's cons are MSI's after sales & lower battery life compared to Ryzen devices. It has UV support in BIOS, so helps with tweaking it.

I thought Predator with 12gen i9 was good, is it over hyped?

The 12th gen CPUs are faster indeed, but need very good cooling to do that. Also neither Predator nor Asus ones are as well built as Legion 5 IMO, so will pick a well built laptop when spending over 1 lakh:

Ok

Need a laptop for basic editing ( don't intend to play game ) newbie, no prior experience of editing. want to edit video for YouTube (travel vlog).
How much should I set budget & which components should I look for? Is 70k will be suffice? Please suggest

If you want to prioritise portability & screen quality with decent performance, then this is good, goes for 70k usually for 512GB, 72k for 1TB SSD, will likely be cheaper in upcoming sales:
*www.amazon.in/dp/B09M41GR4K/
It has a 100% sRGB panel, which helps for creative works.

For serious performance, get this:
*www.amazon.in/HP-7-5800H-Processor-Graphics-16-E0351ax/dp/B09LM3RZ1Q/
Has 100% sRGB display with far superior GPU & better CPU.

Which One will help in smooth 4k editing? (Mainly Promotional AD creation) actually I tried a 40 sec AD in 4k 16:9 on my Old Pc and I couldn't even run PremierePro (even a mouse drag crashed the system) so I am concerned about the future works ( larger files ) in 4k.

Check for detailed reviews for CPU performance. Anyways, wait for sale to begin & let's see what deals we get. Wait till next week.

As I said, the 12th gen CPUs are faster indeed, but need very good cooling to perform well.

This should suffice IMO at 100k - card offers:
HP OMEN Ryzen 7 Octa Core AMD R7-6800H - (16 GB/512 GB SSD/Windows 11 Home/8 GB Graphics/AMD Radeon RX 6650M/144 Hz) 16-n0079AX Gaming Laptop Rs.124283 Price in India - Buy HP OMEN Ryzen 7 Octa Core AMD R7-6800H - (16 GB/512 GB SSD/Windows 11 Home/8 GB Graphics/AMD Radeon RX 6650M/144 Hz) 16-n0079AX Gaming Laptop Mica Silver Online - HP : Flipkart.com

Check reviews for Omen 16, you will get it for ones with different specs. Chassis is same, so thermals & build would be similar. RX6600M is similar to 3060, 6650M is slightly OC'd 6600M.

Waited so far but couldn't buy it from Flipkart as it is still not available for my Bajaj No Cost EMI card, but it is strange that this one is available.

Take a look at this ASUS ROG Strix G15 (2022) with 90Whr Battery Ryzen 7 Octa Core AMD R7-6800H - (16 GB/1 TB SSD/Windows 11 Home/6 GB Graphics/NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060/165 Hz) G513RM-HQ271WS Gaming Laptop on Flipkart

should I consider it instead?

IMO not worth extra 30k.

Need some urgent help
Was playing a game on my laptop (Acer Nitro 5 with RTX 3050), and after quitting the system just froze for a min and later got a BSOD with this error

Video TDR Failure (NVLDDMKM.SYS)

The system restarted on its own and now running any game they start with very low fps, guess they run on integrated graphics. In the Device Manager, this is what its showing for the dedicated graphics card

Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)

Uninstalled and re-installed the latest drivers multiple times but still the same problem. Nvidia control panel does not open, Geforce experience asks me to install drivers.
From what I've googled about this error suggests a hardware malfunction or corrupt driver. Temps during playing games were 85-86 max for graphics card.
Now will reseting the Laptop work here or do I have to RMA it, still have 2 months warranty left.

Use DDU to remove the nvidia driver for a clean install.

*www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

Also, check if it is getting detected in a live linux OS.
No need to reset the laptop and if the issue persists, push for a 1-to-1 replacement under warranty.

Used DDU in safe mode to remove the nvidia driver and did a clean install. Still the same issue as above.
Using Ubuntu, it does detect the card.

Visited the Acer service center after raising a service request (Customer Care was terrible). They did their diagnostics, un-install/re-install the drivers but no good.
Told me it would be a full Motherboard replacement. Will take a few days for the board to come. Oh well no gaming for a few days.

Are Fujitsu laptops good? Can the brand be trusted? How is the service in India? Any Fujitsu owner here?
