Laptop for HD Video editing

[sri82]

Hi,

I need to buy a new laptop for HD video and photo editing. I'll be using Windows 7 and Premiere Pro. Which is laptop you recommend between the new Dell Inspiron 15R and Asus K53SM-SX130D.

I'm leaning towards Asus because it comes with DOS and I can install my own OS and also because it is within my budget of 50k (while 15R is over the budget, I don't mind putting in the extra cash if it delivers) but want to make sure it is the right buy. What do you guys recommend?

I'll also be occasionally gaming (like FarCry and so on).

Let me know if you need to know anything else.

Thanks in advance, guys!

you can buy any laptop with a second or third gen i sereies processor
i say this because they have intel quick sync which encodes videos much faster than cpu+gpu combinations
i know it is present on desktop models of these series of processors but doubt whether it is on notebooks as well
any ways try this lappy out-
Asus K55VM-SX086D / 3rd Generation Core i7 / 8 GB / 1 TB / DOS Laptop: Flipkart.com: Compare, Review Asus Notebook
it has a quad core i7 3rd gen and a decent graphics solution

Thanks, will check it out! But what about build quality and service? Is Asus reliable in that sense?
