HP Envy Series !.?

[Hashim Ejaz]

Salam Guyz ,
And Eid Mubarak .

As all of us Know that Eid just past by making all of us Rich . So i wanted to talk about the New HP Envy series i just sold my Old Dell n5010 Laptop and have some money saved . So i wanted to buy a Premium looking laptop slim and sexy . Have the power to support my gaming urges and doesn't have any heating or some other shitty issues . So the HP envy series caught my eye . Had the premium look and had quite some hardware in it . But the Envy series has Many models varying from specs to Design . The Hp Envy 6 are less expensive but i aint sure about the design the envy 15 s are awesome but alot expensive .

And heard that Hp has some heating issues but i am not sure about the Heating Problem in these .

so i needed suggestions about a laptop to buy under the 90k range and it should have a awesome Dedicated card and a backlight keyboard and is should be eye catching . I know its alot to ask but i want the best in this range .
. ( Open to any type of suggestions and criticism ) .

I wanted to go for the Envy Series too, like envy 17 with full keyboard (backlit) and older model had 5850m newest model has 7850m, but are very costly, so i end up getting a XPS 17, it has i5 sandy 6gb, and 550m nVidia to power my games, currently just played DIRT 3 and i am very satisfied with it. and it for 90k.

the cheap envy series under 90k dont have enough power full GPU, so for 90k budget XPS 17 1702x is the best IMO...

But iam afraid the price is quite high i think as it is in dollars !.

 

[xtremegamer]

yes its bulky because its a desktop replacement laptop which you can travel with, with 9 cell battery life can go upto 5 hours normal use, 1hr:15min of gaming,

dell recently launched XPS 14 Ultrabook , which weighs just 2kg and has a 630m GPU New XPS 14 Ultrabook Backlit Chiclet Keyboard,HD+ & Long Battery Life | Dell

630m is almost as powerful as 550m, with i5 3rd gen and 630m it costs 1200$ link provided above

nothing beats a xps 1730 ---might be envy has a better cpu n all but when it comes to raw gpu power -- 2 beasts are better then 1 --this much i know

xps ftw----- pure gaming fun ---crysis 2 high setings / mafia 2 ---smooth as silk in hd .

look at that screen --payiing that kind cash for a 1600 display ---and no way can you game full boar and the battery will give u 3 hours --atleast thats the info i have --

anyway ---

sir gaming machines like the xps 1730 or any for that matter will not give u a good battery life --if u wana game then u gota hook up to power --pure n simple answer -

with this beast the new battery runs out at roughly 50 min max --and its in warranty ---thats how they are its a 9 cell brand new battery
why coz of many tings 4 fans being turned on / off the wifi / the lcd /the back lights all consume power --

yes its a different thing if u turn them all off .

and its not that heavy that u cant carry with u -- i do ---

if u want to enjoy games then u gota make some sacrafices thats what i think ..

If you want a premium laptop get a Macbook Air or Pro. It shits all over crap like 'Envy' series.
