Hey guys!
I'm looking for a laptop in the price range of 35K to 50K.
I would like to play some new games and use some performance intensive applications like MATLAB etc.
I have shortlisted :
1. Acer Aspire 5740G (Core i5 430m, 4GB DDR3, 500GB HDD, ATI Radeon 5650 1GB) I called up an Acer Mall partner he quoted around 46-47K.
I heard the linux model is for 40K. Does it has any drawback? Plus, what should I keep in mind while buying the linux model?
Also, I want a blue shell, are there any extra charges for the color?
What are Acer's drawbacks?
2. Sony VPC EB16FG/B (Full HD Screen,Core i3 330m, 3GB DDR3, ATI Radeon 5650 1GB) Rs.49K.
I have heard the DVD drive of Vaio would surely give a problem in future.
Also, how much difference is there performance-wise between this and 5740G?
Any other laptops from Asus or Dell which can compare to the above two on price and performance basis?
