Hey pals i am looking for a gaming laptop which should have a good graphics card so that i can play all the games without the need to change into minimum settings

I have a budget around Rs 50,000....and so one of my friend has suggested me to opt for Alienware M17 which is around 1100 $

It has the following configuration:


512MB ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 3870
Intel® Core™2 P8400 2.26GHz (3MB Cache, 1066MHz FSB)
17-Inch WideXGA+ 1440 x 900 LCD (720p)
2GB Dual Channel DDR3 SO-DIMM at 1066MHz – 2 x 1024MB
160GB 7,200RPM (8MB Cache)

So i want to ask that if the above configuration meets the requirements or i have to upgrade the graphics card for hardcore gaming because that will be out of my budget and if there are some other laptops with the same or better configuration in this price range ??

Please suggest ........

xoticpc.com has good laptops you might want to check them out! I would up the cpu to a p8600 and get 4gb of ram and for the graphics put crossfire 3870 if you are a hardcore gamer! but again you can find better comps prob at cheaper price if you want a single card in xoticpc.com
