Hi,
I'm planning to buy a mid range gaming laptop within a budget of 70-71K(max).I'd love it if it has a 17" screen if possible.1TB HDD with SSD and the laptop shouldnt get heated very soon.All the best specs within the price range if available,then i'll be a very happy man :).So guys,If there is such laptop that suits these requirements,Please let me know.
Not a hardcore gamer but i should be able to play the latest games.Be able to use for both personal & office use and can handle high end applications without any hassle and do multitasking.
Should have the best configurations that can support these requirements.
My first choice was Lenovo y50-70 that suited these reqs and had enough USB ports & HD webcam.But turns out to be a bit more expensive.
Thanks..

That's the best config you can get around 70k in India unless Lenovo updates it with 960M. You can import clevo/sager from xotic pc but it'll overshoot your budget. Better wait till Q3-2105 IMO.
And fill the questionnaire.

Budget is around 60-71K(Max).
17"+
Primary tasks-Gaming,Browsing,Skype,Coding,App testing,Office work,Movies,torrents etc.

Nothing exactly on my mind but typical configurations i'd like is 17" screen,i7 processor or better,50GB SSD+1TB HDD,a good graphics card,DVD rw,6/9 cell battery etc.Majorly the laptop shouldnt heat up too much..

Preferred brand - Lenovo,Toshiba,HP,Dell,Asus,MSI.
Not preferred- Samsung & Others..

Full HD preferred.

Battery backup -(5 -7 hrs) preferred.

Browse in Flipkart or Amazon? There's no option at that price point with given high requirements.

DDR3 950M :facepalm:

Not worth over 60k (ebay had a listing from Garg Enterprises)
 
Asus ROG GL552JX DM087D Core I7 4720HQ 4GB 1TB 15 6" Full HD 4GB Graphics | eBay

I meant find an active listing. Who knows when it will be back....

Anyways OP, that's a good laptop. But Y50 updated one would be better with GTX960M. But still I would recommend ASUS one as Lenovo has poor quality & all my friends who have a lenovo laptop older than 2 years has some problem or the other, including my laptop. Just check online how is ASUS laptops after a year or two

Hi,
I found the ASUS ROG GL552 JX- CN009H perfect for my gaming need & my budget.I tried flipkart & others but all out of stock.I went to ASUS exclusive store nearby & ordered this product a month ago.After 30 days,He informs me that ASUS has discontinued this product so we'll offer you ASUS GL552JX-CN316T the new version for a discounted rate of 79,990 Rs.This is insane.He claims that the new one has better configurations but it seems very expensive.What should i do?Should i go for the CN316T or CN009H??.Please advise :).

Wait for updated Y50, if you can

I found 2 models on the lenovo website when i was looking for the updated y50.Can you provide me the link for the latest/updated y50 model?
Also i see that they are both priced around 88k which kind of exceeds my budget :?.Does the latest model have a better screen compared to the old one?
