not anything i noticed... :rolleyes:

ohh ill still update the bios and touchpad drivers for now just to see
btw does the transcend 4gb ram on flipkart play well with the stock 4gb ram? or should i wait for the corsairs price to drop coz i already have to buy new external drives (my old 4tb nas crashed :( ) so 3.5k is too much for me to spend on ram at the moment

Transcend JetRam DDR3 4 GB Laptop RAM (JM1600KSN-4G) - Transcend: Flipkart.com

that transcend one seems to have a very different CAS latency values, this one is the closest to the RAM on our systems: Corsair DDR3 4 GB Laptop RAM (CMSO4GX3M1A1600C11) - Corsair: Flipkart.com

can't say for both the scenarios, been using 8GB since i got this laptop, but from what i have heard, you won't notice that much improvement in day to day tasks, but for the applications which need alot of RAM would indeed work faster due to the reduction of the page file overhead.
Prices are pretty much stagnant for a long time now, it's hard to say if they would fall seeing no improvement in $-₹ and in the international market. :|

the pic seems to have the port in the middle, but my 7520 has battery connectors at the corner, i don't think it would fit..

a bit late i know but a 9-cell wouldnt work even if the connectors fit,the battery size and design would prevent you from opening the screen lid

nope, you need atleast 90W adapter due to power hungry processor and GPU, this might work: Dell 9RCDC 90 Watts AC Adapter - Buy Dell 9RCDC 90 Watts AC Adapter Online at Low Price in India - Amazon.in
This is what's written on my adapter, see if model no. helps:

Hi... I am using the same 12.7 mm caddy in my 14R and it fits perfectly. I got it from ebay a while back. I have put my SSD in the main HDD slot and using my 1TB HDD in the caddy. The caddy from the amazon link should work fine on your 14R.

try leshcats drivers,its the same stuff but lower temps and more performance-
Leshcat’s Catalyst 14.4 WHQL UnifL v2.2 - leshcatlabs.net
follow this guide-
Unified Leshcat Driver Manual

i tried 14.4 straight from AMD but it was < leshcat for watch dogs etc
