For AMD A10, you must increase your budget by 10k
Check these laptops:
Samsung NP300E5X-S02IN Laptop (2nd Gen Ci3/ 4GB/ 750GB/ DOS/ 1GB Graph) vs Samsung NP300E5V-A02IN Laptop (3rd Gen Ci3/ 2GB/ 500GB/ DOS): Compare Computers: Flipkart.com

I will recommend that u increase your budget to 35k & get one of these:
Samsung NP370R5E-S06IN Laptop (3rd Gen Ci3/ 4GB/ 750GB/ Win8/ 2GB Graph) vs Samsung NP350E5C-S01IN Laptop (3rd Gen Ci3/ 4GB/ 750GB/ Win8/ 1GB Graph) vs Lenovo Ideapad Z585 (59-347937) Laptop (APU Quad Core A8/ 4GB/ 1TB/ Win8/ 2.5GB Graph): Compare Co

If u are a student, u will play games sometimes, so GPU will come in handy. Moreover powerful GPU is required for higher level of AutoCAD too

mate graphic card doesnt matter here update 32k max budget want 3rd gen i5

I need autocad for study now so HD 4000 should suffice?

BTW thanks for reply!
to increase budget i have to wait 2 month more

 

[omega44-xt]

Ya that should suffice, but you may regret, not having dedicated GPU afterwards, just like one of my friends.....

is this good for me?

 

[Chaitanya]

Absolutely.
Beautiful looks(atleast for my tastes)
Full 101 Keys keyboard
3rd gen i5

All crterion satisfied
hence deal finaled..
look for it locally you may get it for 1-2k less (that can be spent on accessories)

 

[ankush28]

surely search locally thanks guys for help will spent rest money for cooling pad any suggetion around 0.8k

and also what about haswell lappies? when they will be available wii they fit in my budget

 

[Chaitanya]

1 good advice don't spend much on cooling pad...
I doesn't boost cooling by much(at peak loads) maybe 500-600 is good enough..

Haswell i3 isn't yet launched(AFAIK) & i5 3rd gen itself is barely adjusted in sub 34k category so it is OUT of PICTURE for a while

Yes i read your post about going for i3 and not A8, but i can vouch for this laptop that you won't be feeling dissatisfied with the performance on this.

Before anyone starts their rant about going for i5 instead of A8, i should mention I have personally bought this laptop for a friend of mine 4 days back, and it works great, I have used an i5 laptop as well, they are better, but not worth the extra 5-8k (if you want the other specs to remain same, 1TB, 6GB)

My last question
Lenovo Essential G580 (59-358263) Laptop (3rd Gen Ci5/ 4GB/ 500GB/ DOS) vs Dell Vostro 2520 Laptop (3rd Gen Ci5/ 4GB/ 500GB/ Linux): Compare Computers: Flipkart.com
So now I am confuse between this two laptops please someone help to decide if possible give pros and cons of both.
My priority...
Performence>durability>After sales services>Warrenty.
I heared that dell has best consumer support in laptops and all other bards dont provide better A.S.S.

 

[Chaitanya]
