Hi, everyone!
Just got admitted in a new college at Noida. The reason I haven't bought the machine yet when almost everyone has atleast the basic one is that I wanted to get a high end gaming rig that should be capable of running triple A games perfectly. I'm can't access any desktop right now, so I apologize if I missed anything and also for the language as I'm typing all this from a smartphone.
I'm researching on this topic since last week and have only found one or two forums for exactly the same models I'm searching for (only these are available in the Indian market). I'm going to get one before diwali and my budget is around 1.25 (+- 0.25) lacs - varies accordingly to the VFM factor.
MY PRIORITIES
I prefer Performance more over anything (design, weight, etc) but there's should not be a large gap. I want the machine to feed me at least for my 4 years of college. It should be upgradable (hassle free) in near future if possible. I'd like to play games like GTA V, Watch Dogs, Crysis, COD series. It'd be great to have a Full HD big screen. Design, KB Lightnings, Superior Audio, Customizations and similar stuff are next to Performance but I'd like to have them too.
MY SHORTLIST/RESEARCH
As ASUS, MSI and AW are only the ones to be considered for the Indian Market, I've shortlisted these ones:
Below one lac:
Lenovo Y50
Above 1 lac:
ASUS G750JM
MSI GS60 2PE
Forums say,
"ASUS is better in terms of performance while MSI is best in its class for (Performance + Portability). Well, they mention different models for both of them. Asus JM is the basic model. (What about JX?) I read somewhere that 860M in 750JM is Maxwell which is the better one while 870M in MSI has Kepler. The service of Asus is better. Don't go for AW 17 - they cost too much, though, they are best for upgradation". Any words?
One more thing: Should I buy from Flipkart, Snapdeal or Amazon or have a visit at offline places like Nehru Place (Delhi)?
That's all I remember to add at the moment.
Any help, suggestion or open discussion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone in advance.
