But the g6-2313Ax has a A10 processor, 1 TB hard disk(500 Gb in your choice), 6GB Ram(4 GB in your mentioned) and 2.5 GB(your's 1.5) graphic card @4k extra..

What is your budget?? Strictly 35K??

yup. and i'll mainly use the laptop for coding + some old games (for rest everything i have PC). i am inclined towards Probook for its build, weight and lastly 3yr warranty. Battery backup should be more in probook as it lacks discrete GPU & 14" display. Now according to FK reviews, 4445S's battery backup is nothing great but 3hr under normal workload is more than enough for me. Will have to check if i can find it locally for 30k. I am mainly concerned about the screen brightness. 2005AX has the brightest display i have seen in any budget laptop.

Don't you dare drag me back to 2005AX, honestly, more I think, more I can't justify the extra 8k for the 2313AX, decisions, decisions, think I'll go with a toss.

Not that, I was wondering if A10 over A8, 500GB HDD and 2GB RAM justifies 8k, plus 2005AX comes with free win 7(not that I care :p )

The VRAM definitely does not justify it but the double hdd size 2 gb more ram and a faster processor does !

I guess all these extra features justify the 8K perfectly.. With that you'l also get the Windows 8 upgrade offer, so that should also be on your mind..

Also keep in mind I will be moving my monstrous system to Hyd a few months later, check my sig, the laptop is just a stopgap application.

HP may use the same display panel on most of their G6 panel so 2005AX or 2313AX, should have same brightness.

FK won't ship laptop to my place :(

Hey guys, some people are complaining that even disabling internal graphics is not fixing FPS drop in some older games on these laptops, what do you think? Should I go with i3/7670m?
*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/laptops-n...01-23xxax-powered-trinity-49.html#post1833027

But on that same thread(previous page) a guy said disabling it smoothed FPS in boston, now what do I do? This sucks.

dell right?? :razz:
Yeah: Dell Inspiron 15R N5520 Laptop (3rd Gen Ci3/ 2GB/ 500GB/ Linux/ 1GB Graph) - Dell: Flipkart.com

Last night(4AM) I was browsing fk to answer a guys question here and bam I see this laptop pop up, searched Dell India website, this laptop is no longer sold by them, all 15Rs now come with i3+GT630m/HD4000 or i5ULV+8730, I wanted either A8+7670m or i3+7670m, looked up some review etc and ordered it right there before flipkart increased price, I would have gone for HP but their latest 2049TX and 2313AX lacks Win 7 drivers, even HP does not know when or if they will ever come and numerous complaints in HP India FB page about heating, battery issue, and 2313AX emitting high noise(fan), so got the dell, I had HP before, experience is not good, they asked 15k to replace a motherboard :|

Not even shipped yet, must be stuck until they can get the form 50(west bengal has weird import issues).

And performance wise i3 spanks A8 in all benchmarks and A10 is almost all benchmarks(Barring a few), includes multithreaded benchmarks: Intel Core i3-3110M Ivy Bridge versus i3-2370M Sandy Bridge (page 3: Memory bandwidth, energy consumption) - BeHardware
If this website is to be believed that is, but this is the only good benchmark I found in google that compares A8 and A10. I highly doubt that site, I think i5>A10~i3>A8, but given the choice I would have gone for A10 based 2313AX(dual graphics), but no Win 7 drivers for that.
