if you really want a VFM laptop under 42k, take a day off and hunt down this laptop: HP Pavilion G6-2016TX. Chances are this laptop has completely disappeared from local market too but if you can find one, grab it.

PS: the rating at flipkart tells the whole story.

My budget's around the same. Max 42-43k. Can't spend a buck more. @SaM - hunted down 2016tx :D the dealer is same one mentioned in HP site under HP Retailers in my city. He's offering it for 40990. Will buy it tomorrow most prolly. Guess could do some bargaining. +2nd and 3rd year warranty for 2k (Source - *www.hp.com/in/buyandprotect )

A HP exclusive store giving g6-2049tx - 36.5 without any accesories. And 37.8k- A mouse/headset/4GB sandisk pendrive/+2gb RAM extra. Not going for this because screen is 14'. I feel (2016tx) 15.6's awesome for movies and gaming. :)

What say guys?

i5U + 8730M is an imbalanced config. slow processor but fast GPU. Check the reviews of MSI GX60 (A10 with a highend GPU). The Dell laptop will be no different. Even though current gen games run fine, it is not future proof at all. Games that are processor heavy will slow down bottlenecked by slow processor.

@SaM - try making my post (*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/laptops-netbooks/170135-anyone-buying-hp-i5-i7-laptops-do-avail-offer.html) sticky or something, it certainly would help people..

I have NEVER seen an MSI laptop in India. Now since I have to wait a few more days, I am reconsidering my options. If I get an i3M + 7670m should i get it?

Troubling you again. Found 3 new laptops:

If you are going for i5+7670m why not the HP 2049TX? It just dropped to 36k in flipkart.

Month & year of manufacture of 2049tx laptops is oct 12. so i think they will become old to buy now.. better to get freshly shipped models from g6

Say wat? What's that have to do with the quality of the product, it still has the fastest config sub 40k, period.

Just trying to figure out why the prices are being slashed so much, may be the stock getting old right... same time new models with different product numbers release with little to nothing different in config and prices kept moderate-high.

I have no idea why they're giving a laptop for 36k which should be comfortably priced at 42-45k easy.
