Laptop for 35-38k (Edit: extended to 45k)
1) What is your budget?
A: 35k, extendable by 3k
2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?
A: Any of the below will do.
Thin and Light; 12" - 14" screen
Mainstream; 15" - 16" screen
3) What are the primary tasks you will be performing with this notebook?
A: Visual Studio 2013, Photoshop, Browsing, Light Gaming (CS:GO, 50-80 FPS on low/med settings)
5) Any typical configuration in your mind you're eying for ?
A: No
4) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
A: Any brand with a good customer support and warranty period will do.
6) Anything else you would like to say?
A: 6 cell battery preferred. Comfortable with both online and local options.
I was actually planning for a desktop (Mid-range gaming) a few weeks back but I realised that I need portability and a desktop isn't going to be a good option for me.
Also, I knew that to achieve a similar gaming experience I have to cough up a LOT more (almost double of my desktop budget) and many of my gaming friends suggested based on experience that it STILL isn't going to be worth it. So I decided not to get a gaming laptop at all and save up for a desktop for when the time comes.
I know it's going to be hard to find, but anything that runs GO at low/med settings at a playable FPS (50-80) should be more than enough.
