1.Compaq presario CQ41 (or61) Pentium D, 3 GB RAM, 320GB HDD (40k)(2008-2010)
Horribly slow even for its time but trouble free other wise. Liked the keyboard. Battery life was around 2 hrs max(okayish). Not to mention vista really killed that PC, when ran on linux it felt a lot better 5/10
2. HP Pavilion G6-2005AX A8-4500M, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD, AMD HD7640G+HD7670M(32k) (2012-)
Has been to service center once ( always extend warranty). Quite good gaming package for the budget. Solid build (survived 2-3ft falls like 7-8 times). Big PITA when comes to finding perfect way to run a game without proper CFX support. Also installing graphic drivers in Linux were really annoying. Not to mention that it gobbles battery like a refugee(2.5 hrs on max stretch). 7/10
3. Lenovo Z510 Ci5-4200M, 6GB RAM, GT740M, 1TB HDD (51k) (02/2014 - 08/2014 (then gave to sister))
Matte screen was really welcome, although I felt brightness is tad lower than HP machine. Since it runs on windows 8.1 by default the experience is quite fluid & fast. Performance is great fit regular tasks. Didn't game much though so can't say about gfx perf. Battery lasts about 4hrs. Extra RAM comes in handy in certain tasks like compressing in 7zip.. 8/10

Those are not gaming laptops. Those are multimedia laptops. Gaming laptops can max out current games at least with 30 FPS.

My first laptop was Dell Studio 1535, and it had above average graphics capability. I had bought it for 55k at that time. And one fine day the laptop just failed for no apparent reason. It turns out that the hard drive failed along with its connector and I have not been able to find a replacement connector for that.
The current laptop I have got is Lenovo Ideapad Z500, and it sure is a great performer. Bought for 50k. I can play any games that I want on it, and it gives me equal performance as my desktop rig.
