Hi I am planning to buy a laptop here are the few I shortlisted can you guys tell me which Is the way to go
This is the dell with 8850 ddr5 but comparatively I see it 4500u is not great
http://www.flipkart.com/dell-inspiron-15-laptop-4th-gen-ci7-8gb-1tb-win8-2gb-graph/p/itmdpzjm3hyzfbfg?pid=COMDPZJC9STYFRP9&otracker=browse&pageNum=1

This lenovo is almost final only thing making me think is the ddr3 740m will it be future proof? Also If it's 64 bit or 128 I m not sure
But it 4207mq is great also I get a 8gb ssd in a very nice price the spot

Here i5 4200m is good but again 740m for such a price difference

Finally this, a little over my budget but then again it 4200m will be good I think and it has 740m n14p gt1 I think it's the slides version with ddr5 also with the lenovo ultrabay so is it worth all the money?

My budget is almost 60000k~950$
I am looking to game I know laptop are not great for gaming and all but still I have to have portability I need to be future proof
My last laptop with core2duo and hd4670 was bought on 2010 and lasted with me all the way till now n played all I could throw on it until recently
So guys plz help me out
Also I am looking to develop for windows phone 8 it's sdk needs hardware virtualization so above processors support that?

Thanx a lot guys it will be great help

@themaskofwraith z510 has a 740m with 64bit bandwidth correct me if I am wrong
Also in is base clocked at 2.2 but that won't be an issue
Only thing stopping me from getting z510 is ddr3 740m 740m 64bit edition
Otherwise it's great

@goldsmit409
sorry copeid wrong URL earlier, this is the right one
http://www.flipkart.com/lenovo-ideapad-y510p-59-389687-laptop-4th-gen-ci5-8gb-1tb-win8-2gb-graph/p/itmdstxzmjmqwzhk?pid=COMDSTXHU8WB8UVZ&cmpid=content_computer_8965229628_gmc_pla&tgi=sem,1,G,11214002,g,search,,25719800660,1o1,,,c,,,,,,,&gclid=CNGRodrD3LwCFQpU4god5lUA5Q

And u might wanna consider this.
http://www.flipkart.com/toshiba-qosmio-x500-x8310-laptop-2nd-gen-ci7-4gb-1-5tb-win7-hp-1-5gb-graph/p/itmczzy7zhchc7jc?pid=COMCZZY67ZATTDRF&srno=b_14&ref=7b23bb87-0150-4ab7-ad0b-f2a598a1a45d

The only downside is older graphic card which might drop few frames in the future.

but ull get
real Quadcore with 6MB l3 cache,
A laptop designed only gaming purpose.
3D Full hd screen
Blue ray drive
Everything is better than all laptops mentioned in the thread, except the fact that ull drop few frames in the future.
