It's not 12GB; it's 10. It's a 320-bit card, so the memory it has corresponds to that bus width. For a 12GB card you either need 192-bit(like the 3060) or 384-bit(like the 3090). For 8 GB you'll typically have 256-bit.

The problem with an APU is that if there is a dedicated graphics card, then the APU is half useless, the integrated graphics that comes with it is switched off.

Go with a CPU. Why an APU? I got the Lenovo G510(59-398343) for INR 36k(you'll get for cheaper; this is nearly 6 months ago) with 4 GB upgradable to 16GB, Core i5 4200M, I went with no graphics card, but it has a variant with ATI Sunpro 8570 2GB graphics card. The graphics card is crap, but...

Generally, what I said in this thread is only for you to be able to change the fan speed as you wish, and it stays there. To be able to change it according to a curve(such as lowest at 30C and highest at 60, and a gradual increase upto that) you'll need to configure a fan curve for your CPU and...

It also allows for generally quieter operation; earlier my noisy CPU fan started humming the minute I launched a CPU intensive game. Now it's somewhat quieter.

Either Microsoft are fools or they believe we are fools.$100 discount for a product that's priced $179 higher? Why didn't they be honest atleast and said it's $ -79 discount?And Windows 8 is bad enough.Keep this up, Microsoft, you'll be bankrupt soon.

I know I can't get an SSD. No OS is fine for me. I could put Linux in there and don't want to pay 6k for win8 which I am not too fond of. What terms are you talking about that the processor is weaker than an Ivy Bridge i3? Are you talking about the desktop i3's? BTW the i5 IS a M series. RAM is...

I know this thread is now old, but, well, I'm still searching, and this is what I came up with: http://www.flipkart.com/lenovo-essential-g510-59-398343-laptop-4th-gen-ci5-4gb-500gb-dos/p/itmdp26exhgyducx?pid=COMDP26ETWKZUZUG& Any cons? I'm thinking of sticking another 8GB RAM in there. Should I...

Probably the same as this one: http://www.flipkart.com/hp-envy-15-touchsmart-laptop/p/itmdr7dvzkyb8jzs?pid=COMDR7DVTDAPVPZB&otracker=from-search&srno=t_36&query=hp+envy&ref=f3c5786e-51c8-49f2-89ea-f9f62a3526f5 That's a good laptop. Hopefully it'll be within my budget when it becomes available...

Sorry, no use for me.

Hmm. OK.

Can you find any with 16 GB upgradable RAM? The best choice otherwise looks to be the ASUS one.
