In india u will get a DELL XPS M1730 at Rs. 99,990/-

(pros: u can hv a dual 512 mb 8700 gtx card, looks cool but see the cons: heavily priced, weighs 5Kg (With the adapter, its close to 7Kg.., on battery it works for jus 56 Mins while gaming.. and in normal use, jus 76 mins..)

In HP, u can get a 15.4 inch screen lappy... model: HP DV4 1242tx with 512 mb nVIDIA 9200 M gpu card

Well, gaming purely depends on wat level (setting) U wanna game at RMN..

I mean, a 8xxx series gpu lappy can also be said a gaming lappy as compared to a 9xxx series or even a SLi (8xxx in SLi)..

THe main thing to look at (wat i feel is) is the amount of RAM+GPU memory (dedicated, not Intgrated).. a lappy has

Sony Vaio hv 128 MB Dedicated lappy, but for a gaming lappy, (in my sense) a lappy SHUD definately and mandatorily hv a Minimum of 256MB of dedicated gpu and if its 512MB dedicated (like the ones in HP's DV4 series) its the best...

Btw, in India, the only lappy thats certified gaming (by industry) is the Dell XPS M1730 (the 5kg, 56 min (on battery mode) and 2x256 MB 8600 SLi) priced at a NOT-AT-ALL-VALUE-FOR-MONEY price of Rs.99,990/- ..

But wat i think is that, more of a gaming lappy, its a desktop replacement..

In the US, u get affordable lappy wich are truly gaming lappy like the M51 from Alienware or the Dell XPS M1730 (wich in the US model has NVIDIAŽ SLI™ Dual GeForceŽ 9800M GT with 1GB GDDR3 Memory)..and at a affordable price of (if im notmistaken) at Rs.88,000/-
---------

Cheers n e-peace...

Try MSI GX630 gaming laptop...its looks are also nice..i mean it does luk like a gaming laptop! and also its got AMD processor..i dont remember the xact one..but it is above 2 ghz i think..and its got Geforce 9600M GT.. and also its got a Turbo feature wherein u can overclock it at a touch of a button to a preset setting.. ..its for around 62k w/o tax..and it fits perfectly in your budget...

if you are going to go to US, get the MSi GT627 [owns GX630 with 9800m GT] or Asus G50VT.
These are the best 15.4" gaming laptops right now and within your budget too.

But guys, any idea about the after sales service of MSi?
