The M11x is a lot smaller than he asks for.

Re: Help me buying!!!

The GT425m doesn't sound ideal for the intended use. It's a watered down GT430, and the last thing the GT430 needs is watering down. Can you link some decent Indian etailers, cmptrluvr or Ishank, so that us non-Indians can see what's available for the price?

Also, I'm guessing OP is aware of this, but just in case not: at any given performance level in games it's normally far, far more expensive to get a laptop than a desktop. It might even be worth looking into a desktop for gaming and a cheaper laptop for portable office work, if that meets your needs.

Re: Help me buying!!!

Then I guess the best bet is one of the Sony VAIOs with 4GB of RAM and a Radeon 6630m. Anything else and you get stuck with the 540m (not suitable for gaming) or the 6490m (not suitable for gaming). As it is, the 6630 will really struggle in a lot of games - it's on a par with a 9600GT or GT240, which are both quite old cards. Certainly you'd be stuck at very low resolutions in BF3, and at lowest settings.

If you could get a second hand laptop with a GTX280M/GTX285M that'd still be less than ideal for new games at 1080p, but a big improvement. Ideally you want at least a GTX560m, and that's going to be way out of budget.

Re: Help me buying!!!

That's a big improvement, but the graphics are still pretty lackluster - 8800GT class performance at best. Slower than a desktop 5670.
