My budget is quite flexi but i am not sure if i want to buy a 60K laptop and carry it everyday to my college.

I am Pursuing B.Tech CSE(2nd Year) if the course requires a powerful laptop then i have no choice other than to buy a Samsung NP550P.

But if my needs are taken care of by 30k laptop i will stick to it and will use the rest of money to upgrade my Mobile,HDD,Desktop.


Options i am Considering.

1)Samsung Np 550p --> 60k
2)Asus K53SM-SX010D---->40k
3)HP G6 2005AX---->33k

If my needs are taken care of by 30k laptop i will stick to it and will use the rest of money to upgrade my Mobile,HDD,Desktop.

BFBC2 is a one of those demanding games...only a samsung lappy can handle it easily with no lag ;)

The only problem with Sammy (i7) is the throttling issue:

During our stress tests (Prime95 and FurMark) we noticed something peculiar happening with the CPU. Throughout the duration of the test, the CPU frequency continued to fluctuate between 1.2GHz and 3.1GHz, sometimes leveling off in between. At this stage the temperature readings were not critical (an initial 70ºC to a toasty 95ºC), which leads us to suspect that the cause might be the 90W power supply unit being too weak.

The same has been noticed by an owner at TDF (was playing Max Payne 3 at high settings, w/o an external cooler though)
