Hello everyone!
I currently have an Acer Aspire 5745 (i5 variant) with onboard graphics. Lately, I have been playing FIFA 13 on my laptop and find the laptop incapable of coping with the game at even low settings. Running the game at very low settings is no fun. Also, I'd like to play other games as well so the incompetence of the current graphics chip will really get on my nerves.
Okay, so here go the nitty gritties -
1. http://www.flipkart.com/samsung-np350e5c-s02in-laptop-3rd-gen-ci3-4gb-750gb-win8-2gb-graph/p/itmdk6ybhrhc4cd9?q=Samsung NP350E5C-S02IN Laptop (3rd Gen Ci3/ 4GB/ 750GB/ Win8/ 2GB Graph)&as=on&as-show=on&otracker=start&as-pos=p_1&pid=COMDK6Y9SZNHJ7EX
2. http://www.flipkart.com/samsung-np3...MDK6Y9DTZKRQHK&icmpid=reco_pp_same_computer_1 - If only this had USB 3!
3. http://www.snapdeal.com/product/samsung-np370r5es06in-notebook-intel-core/661921 - weak 3 cell battery, no dvd drive.
4. http://www.flipkart.com/lenovo-idea...z500&ref=3befee81-54d2-45ce-b232-1416666acb3d - is this available cheaper locally?
Also, please advice if it would be better to wait for the 4th gen processors to arrive so that I get better choice or at least expect the prices of these laptops to fall further. Richland should also be making its way into most laptops so I'd like to see some manufacturer come up with 8650G+8750M variant with the A10-5750 processor.
PS - would also like to add an SSD in addition to the existing hard drive in the near future.
Any suggestions folks?

Okay, so here go the nitty gritties -
- What's your Budget? - 30-35k
- What will be your primary usage for the notebook be? Moderate Gaming, Multimedia, office apps, spss, some photoshop
- What size and weight considerations do you have? Mainstream - 15.6"
- Any brand that you prefer, or any brand that you detest? HP ( service issues), Acer(already using)
- Any other considerations? Decent Battery life; a 900p display would really stretch the wishful thinking I guess but the display(even if 1366x768) needs to be good[vibrant, very good contrast ratio, decent brigtness levels], USB 3 ports, Good sound. Chicklet keyboard
