Upgrading from Dell Vostro 1015

[maverick121]

Hi,

Im looking to upgrade my dell vostro 1015(Core 2 Duo).

1) What is your budget?
40,000 Max

2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?

My Dell Vostro is Bulky and kind of hard to use.I would prefer a slim and good looking laptop with less weight.
But this is NOT a Major Requirement

3) What are the primary tasks will you be performing with this notebook?

Coding(Visual Studio,Netbeans etc),so a bigger screen would be good( 15" Minimum)
I like gaming,play all the latest games on PC,i would like to play newly released games,since i wont have access to my PC all time
Watching Movies,Listening Music

4) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
Nothing specific.But yes Dell,Lenovo,HP are more common choices.Any other reputed brand will also be good.


5) Any typical configuration in your mind you're eying for ?
Processor-i dont know about the generations (first gen,second gen etc).I would Multi-task a lot so i5 would be my choice(if it fits in my budget)
NVIDIA Graphics would be good(it it fits in the budget)

6) Anything else you would like to say?

A HD or Full HD Display will be great,if it fits in my budget.

What im looking for is a replacement to my PC,since i wont be able to access it everyday.

Please suggest

-1 for the ULV i5 in that one

The model you have suggested is out of stock on flipkart.Is this a new model.I want a good looking laptop this one kind of looks classic.The 720 is better than 8570.With this 8570 or 720 will I be able to play games like watchdogs even at low settings.If not I could rule out the graphics card and cut the budget.

Can you tell me about the quality of vostro anti glare display? I have kept my laptop on the desk. So I am planning to buy Vostro.

[MENTION=129717]nandu[/MENTION] I dont know the screen quality of new vostro.But mine is not an anitiglare screen its an Glossy screen that reflects light.The screen is good,but sometimes you may find it annoying due to reflections,but being a laptop its not a cause of concern as you can move it.
