Should i go for the 1 gb 740M or the 2 gb?Do you get like more fps on the 2 gb? I know only a few games use more than 1 gb. So just wanted to check. Will be getting this in 2 to 3 days.

Buy the 1gb one... 64 bit 740m can't use more 512mb from my knowledge.... but people seem to be claiming theres some kind of change in architecture there... given the improvement... i still wouldn't imagine it using a complete gb. 2gb is just marketing gimmik

nope, don't go for 2 Gb model..... the games which take up more than 1Gb of gpu will not run anyways coz the mobile GPU's are not that powerful.
Assassins creed 3 is taking up little more than 500Mb @ 720p and high details... crysis 3 takes around 760Mb on very high...
moreover you can increase the RAM as one slot is empty in 1Gb model :)

I'd come across one in Croma in the RCITY Mall in Ghatkopar. You might wanna check there.

ok .. corrected it .. Suggest me a cooling pad

Don't buy El cheapo cooling pads... they are not vey effective.....
as for the cooling pad to work best, look for the pad whose fan is directly below the air intake vent of the laptop, so as to provide best efficiency... Look for the ones in the market so that you get demo of the product

try to boot into safemode and then shutdown... if it takes less than a minute to shutdown then some process is stalling the shutdown process
