how much do they cost ? i cant get any info abut them neither on galaxy or homeshopping !.?
Seems like they are pretty darn expensive, the XPS 15s. I looked them up and they cost over 1 lac. I suppose you can ask annosaad, a premium seller here on Pakgamers to see if he can arrange the laptop of your choice for you.

You're right, this model is not available on galaxy or homeshopping.

Somebody selling a used one here though: HAFEEZCENTRE.PK: Buy, Sell New & Used in Pakistan. Largest Free Classifieds Portal for .

Maybe you should put up a want to buy ad in the marketplace.

Indeed. Dell Inspiron won't exactly be able to provide those features along with backlit keyboard.

True that you'l have to look for some other brand.

I was thinking about HP !. ?/
Most HP laptops get overheating issues.

Now that may sound like a sweeping statement but all the people I have met who own HP do admit that many of them touch too high temperatures or there are fan issues, quite often.

Lemme see which one can fit your budget.

I could find only one laptop available on Galaxy.com.pk that almost perfectly suits your game requirements and unfortunately it IS a Dell.

Dell Vostro D3550 Core i5. It's available for Rs. 63500 on Galaxy.

Not bad if it fulfills the requirements to play League of Legends for you, right?

Here are the specs: Dell Vostro D3550 price in pakistan

I hope I managed to help.

Yep, that's right.

HP DV6 IS actually a nice lappy but tell you what, my friend owns this very HP model and he reports that it does get REALLY hot on medium usage. And no backlit keyboard sure is a problem for him to work with on the HP DV6. Plus, the hefty price tag of Rs. 77000.

Dell Vostro 3550 does look like a very strong candidate. Here's the review for your convenience: Review Dell Vostro 3550 Notebook - Notebookcheck.net Reviews
I hope that's convincing enough. :)

Don't get Sandy Bridge notebooks i.e. i5/i7 2xxx series processors. Get Ivy Bridge notebooks i.e i5/i7 3xxx series processors.

Not exactly eye catching, agreed.

But you gotta make a sacrifice somewhere working with a fixed limited budget, you know. Nothing in this world is PERFECT.

Sorry to hijack your thread but since this is quite active i'd like to ask about a laptop too.

I'm considering buying this laptop here (Specs: HP Pavilion dm4 (Intel Core i5 430M processor 2.26GHz, 2GB RAM) - Notebooks - CNET Asia) so i need some reviews on this about heating problems, good for gaming or not, how much should it cost and any other things which i'm not aware of?
It's good for basic stuff but for hardcore games, I am afraid this won't exactly be the right choice.

Check the review here: HP Pavilion dm4-3090se Laptop Review - Notebookcheck.net Reviews

Btw, what's your budget and your requirements?

Well i'll be needing this laptop mostly for my university work. I'll be starting software engineering from 10th september inshAllah so need to a buy a laptop before that.

The requirements would be that it should easily run huge softwares without lagging, must have a good battery time, mediocre for gaming since i already have a xbox, easy and light weight to carry since i would be roaming around in the university with this and no heating issues.

Is the beats edition dm4 series better then the normal dm4?

Oh and budget is not more then 40k so i'll most probably be looking for a used laptop since i don't think i can get a new one in this budget except for dell.

Tell you what, i shall NEVER advise you to get a USED laptop EVER! Infact, it's pointless to risk buying any sorts of electronics in used state.

So how about I look for a NEW notebook that might as well closely fit your requirements, if you are ok with that?

Well the Hp dm4 that i'm looking for is being sold by a trusted friend who lives not more then 2-3 blocks away from my house.
So obviously since i know him very well and how carefully he uses his electronics i'll give his laptop first priority.

And yes i completely agree with your advice of buying a used laptop and the risk involved so i'll give my second priority to buying a new laptop in that range but if i'd find one that is.

So if you can then please list down some new laptops in my range, and since you are from rawalpindi aswell, do point out some shops from where i should consider buying it. :)

Sure, if you really are aware of his meticulous nature and how careful he is with his stuff, by all means consider it but do check reviews for the lappy and keep in mind the sort of computer work that you will need it for, which I feel requires heavy

graphic processing.

In any case, I shall begin my research for the list of NEW laptops that may well fit your needs and budget.
