Best 50k lappy?

[varuog]

Hii friends ...

I am back here after a long time ... Had to make a new id as I've lost my previous account.

Anyways, coming back to the topic, I am once again in dire need of your help. (I was advised to buy n82 in my previous query and I am glad I went with your advice).

Now, I need to buy a laptop - my first ever ! My budget is around 50k.
I am not very sure about the configuration. I'd just like to have the best in my budget.
I prefer to buy Dell or HP.
Since I am a student, I'll be needing the lappy for various purposes - includes programming, movies, little bit of gaming etc ...

Can you please advice me a suitable choice?
Thanks in advance !!!

studio xps I think costs around 60k but is one hell of a laptop.

 

[varuog]

^^^ 60k ??? Sad !!!
I can extend upto 55k but .... 60k is way out of my budget ...

 

[rajhot]

then go with studio 15

There's even one Studio XPS 13 - and it's priced around 54k (I am not sure, though).
What about it?

STudio 15 is good laptop , even i suggested for many of them past one week in my place 3 of them got same problem , not with performance issues but - DVD DRIVE thats the only problem .
MANY TIMES ITS NOT WORKING !! gr8 !! look forward for that one , clear ur clarification with the dealer about the warranties & get .

Check for the ASUS laptops with same config as DELL studio 15 it comes with the 9700MGT GPU costs 57K . i asked today only !!

Guys can you tell me the diff between windows 32 bit and 64 bit and also between ddr2 and ddr3 RAM ?

Which one is better in each?

 

[desiibond]

32-bit OS can access a max of 3.25Gb of RAM. 64-bit can access 16 exabytes of RAM.

DDR3 advantages over DDR2:

1) Higher bandwidth
2) Higher frequency
3) lower operating voltage

DDR2 advantages over DDR3:

1) Lot lot cheaper
2) lower latencies
3) cheaper compatible motherboards

Get this instead:

Dell Studio something

Costs 43k, if u make ram 3GB from 4GB, it will cost lesser. GPU to HD3670 and procc to C2D P8400 online customization will take to price to near 50k(lesser).

 

[varuog]

even i am thinking to buy dell studio 15.

just 1 last query .... what one should i prefer - windows 32 bit or 64 bit ????

 

[desiibond]

that depends on applications that you use.

Post the list of apps that you are going to use.

u wont get XP but Vista, on Dell site u will need 100 bucks extra for 64-bit OS, but sadly soon Vista will become totally obsolete. 64-bit OS supports 32-bit apps, so you can go for 64-bit Vista Home Premium without thinking.
