1) What is your budget?*(INR or USD)
Rs. 60-65k

2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?
Mainstream; 15" - 16" screen


3) What are the primary tasks you will be performing with this notebook?*
It will be used as my primary device soo all those basic stuff. Casual gaming like fifa (football <3) and dota. Nothing serious though, really prefer the higher resolution... Soo just playable frame rates will do. Loads of downloading

5) Any typical configuration in your mind you're eying for ?
An i5 + a basic dGPU (like 920m... Maybe a 940m). My all data is stored on external hdds soo don't really need large space. An ssd would be nice to have (space doesn't really matters).


4) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
Nope


6) Anything else you would like to say?
Screen resolution*1080p*(Full HD)

Battery back up: Doesn't really matters will have the charger most of the time

Purchase place: No idea where to buy from. I live in Mumbai soo online or Croma or something....??


Soo I will be using this one instead of a computer. Don't really know am I asking too much for this budget soo if that's the case just say it clearly.

I found this one..... Hardware looks good for that price, 2 drawbacks: 4gb ram (if it has expansion slot no problem) and DOS. What do you think? Not really sure about DOS

Most of these laptops do have expansion slots, just get another 4GB and you are done..
DOS laptops are better IMO, because they are cheaper and you dont have to pay for windows licence. You can install pirated, or just find someone who has dreamspark account (college students) and ask them for a key..
Installing windows is a one step, very easy process, but will save you Rs 5000, for that overpriced licence

Thanx man... Totally forgot about warranty.... R510JX looks really good.... Can I replace its HDD with an SSD?

Is there any other model with same config (quad core + 950m) with DOS.... Just too save some money as said by [MENTION=110244]Nerevarine[/MENTION]

if it has dvd drive slot, its a good idea to remove it, and install HDD there, the other sata port, install an SSD there..

R510JX has DVD drive, so removing it & using HDD+SSD combo is better

I know it's below my budget but it's a quad core + 950m and saving some money never hurts .... About warranty I checked and they do have a store in Mumbai... If anything else is covered in manufacturer warranty then please tell. Anything else wrong with this one please let me know. I will add another 4gb ram and probably an ssd
