:shock:

Thats too much man.. I guess there must be poor ventilation.. As said above, did switch to turbo mode?

or by any chance were the ventilation blocked somehow, on bed etc?

Sorry for going off-topic here...but do any of you have any info on this laptop?

HP Pavilion dv6-7034: HP Pavilion dv6-7034tx Entertainment Notebook PC Product Specifications - HP Customer Care (United States - English)

It's obviously an old model since it uses the Sandy Bridge...but rider said that IB outscores SB only in graphics....If this is available for around 60k, then i would be excellent...:-D:-D

ummm....you can try the logitech one,it has got good reviews
Logitech Gamepad F310 | Gamepad | Flipkart.com

or strictly going by your budget,
Thrustmaster Firestorm Dual Analog 3 (PC) (Black) | Gamepad | Flipkart.com

But I would personally like you to increase your budget by Rs. 500 and go for the Microsoft controller......even though it's price is Rs. 1899 on flipkart,you can get it for Rs. 1500 in local stores.It's highly recommended!!

My Initial impression of sammy:

1. keyboard definitely needs to be get used to, as i am moving from lenovo r400.
it simply looks too tiny. i hate the windows pointer middling with the typing :(
2. sound is crystal clear for me. jbl rocks!
3. i tried to close screen with firm left hand..could easily see the liquid-effect on screen.
This also happens with lenovo though.

windows is not my favourite os and will be switching to ubuntu asap.
have taken screen, sound and video samples. trying to upload for sharing.
