Shortlisted 2 items, Dell Inspiron 15R Turbo and Samsung np550 s05..

btw, samsung has been changing those s0x names, like s01,s02,...s05etc. Are s05 and s02 same? from the specs it seems so..

Help me choose between these two...any other suggestions are welcome..

Dell Inspiron 17R Turbo is better suited for you, it comes with nVidia GT650M, one of the fastest gaming GPU's available in your budget. Although it has i5 instead of i7, but that won't matter much in games anyway.

+1, I didn't notice it in flipkart(they should add a section which allows you to check the gpu of a laptop).

Get the Y500: *www.flipkart.com/lenovo-ideapad-y5...no=t_1&otracker=from-search&query=lenevo y500

If you have issues with lenovo, and i5 doesn't matter much to you: *www.flipkart.com/samsung-np550p5c-...b4&srno=t_1&otracker=from-search&query=gt650m

This is another amazing laptop, both 15inch.

bro, looks like u r using np550..is there any difference between s02 and s05?

 

[omega44-xt]

@^^ S05IN is same as S02IN but with a bit greater processor speed & solved heating issues. Acc. to Samsung India estore, it also weighs less(2. 33kg).

@OP: Get Lenovo Ideapad Y500

bro, looks like u r using np550..is there any difference between s02 and s05?

s05 got better MoBo, Win 8 preinstalled, Bit better CPU and runs cooler

Y500 all the way! If not get NP550P5C, it's the 2nd best IMHO.

 

[Harsh Pranami]

Lenovo Y500 is ur best bet.

LENOVO Y500 by closing your eyes, because its a GAMING laptop, so don't worry about heating and throttling.

Lenovo y500 is really better than Samsung.watch some reviews...

Lenovo Y500 is riddled with Touch Pad issues. And also, some people seem to be experiencing problems with the battery/power brick, they say that the laptop does't charge. Just be aware of these issues before you drop the cash

However, even with the issues, this laptop has awesome specs, and should make up for its short comings.

I've been hearing a lot about these issues with Y500...looks like its better to choose sammy np550-s05 to be on the safer side ...

Since they were the issues in the old stock, be sure to check the make of the Y500, if its after October 2012, i dont think you'l encounter such problems..

Lenovo y500 is best for gaming.... just make sure the manufactured date is after 28 nov.... and u ll b fine....
