Suggest a Laptop under 25000

[rksingh]

I want to purchase a laptop for a Mca student. My budget is 25000. Pl. Suggest the best laptop in my budget. Thanks in advance.

 

[bikdel]

I assume u need it for light tasks. As that kinda laptop will only fit ur budget.

Go for Acer 4315. Gr8 vfm @ 22k. CeleronM 1.8 ghz, 1gb ram, 945 chipset, 80gb hdd, dvd-rw, wifi, etc.
Or
compaq c700 series.

 

[deepakchan]

can also have a look at lenovo 3000g series.. model no is 2049

 

[desiibond]

Please don't go for celeron models.

Acer 4520 comes for some 26k and is a superb laptop with AMD's dual core proccy and also it comes with linux.

AMD X2 2GHz processor
1gig or 2 gig ram
nvidia 7000Go chipset (good for basic gaming)
160gig HDD
14.1" glossy wide screen
bluetooth, IR, wifi, gigabitlan, integrated 1.3mp webcam
sturdy build
leather laptop carry case

Overall an excellent VFM laptop and I recomend this for all students, and for those who don’t intend to do graphics intensive work; looks a bit plain, but its still cool in its own way.

Acer 4520G.

It comes with 1Gig ram but you can get more as my friend did some bargaining and got an extra gig stick installed by the seller.

Acer 4520G.

Isn't Acer 4520G the laptop with Turion X2 and an 8400GS ? Is it really within 25k ? If not, whats its cost ?

 

[bikdel]

Theres nothing bad in celeron models. The money saved in proccy shows up in xtra features. And gives vfm for those who dont want heavy multitasking.

@gautham
4520g, its dual core but not 8400 gs.

AFAIK acer 4520 costs 29k+

 

[gopz]

Acer 4520 costs around 26k all inclusive, in Bangalore. I cannot see a better laptop which provides as much VFM as this one.

 

[Pathik]

It comes with a Turion X2 tk55 and Nvidia 7000M IGP. 25.8k

Yup. Heard of its new price. Where exactly can I buy it ? I remember an Acer laptop store near rajajinagar 1st block west of chord road. Can I get it for the same price there ?

It comes with a Turion X2 tk55 and Nvidia 7000M IGP. 25.8k

But you said 4520G. G version comes with 8400GS. Ordinary version comes with 7000M IGP.

whats the cost of 4520G ? What do they charge for the GFX card ?

Acer laptop stores charge more. Try to get it from your neighborhood dealer or SP Road. You can even try computerwarehouse on MG Road but you will need to bargain with them a bit.

Will I get Warranty if I buy from SP Road ?

And whats the cost of 4520G ? G is the version with 8400GS optional. I confirmed it.
All these numbers of acer dealers are outdated.
None of them exist. I tried several numbers till now.

 

[desiibond]

SP Road is not a black market. Go to stores like Golcha, Railton, Ankit, Anandit and you get genuine hardware and good support.

 

[Pathik]

Yep. My mistake. I meant the 4520.

 

[MetalheadGautham]

Yep. My mistake. I meant the 4520.

OK baba, let it be your mistake.
BUT ME WANTS THE PRICE DIFFERENCE B/W 4520 AND 4520G
and can an external card be added to 4520 at a later stage ?

 

[Pathik]

Nah. It cant be added later.
And I dont think you get the 4520G in here. Not Mumbai atleast.
BTW, if you are not heavily into gaming and just want portability and want to try different OSes get a MSI Wind.

If an MSI wind is available for 16k in india too, its worth buying.
but wikipedia says prices have been raised from 399$ to 560$

that will make it pointless to posess compared to 4520.
