My needs are:
#Mainly I will use laptop for working in Adobe Photoshop cs6 (sometimes in 3d mode), Camtasia studio, Visual Studio, Netbeans, Eclipse, Adobe Dreamweaver CS6, surfing internet, downloading etc.

#Secondarily I will use it for playing games and watching movies.

Thanks in advance.

All are almost same in performance.

but you can buy this laptop -> HP 15-g009AX

I suggest you to upgrade the RAM to 8GB. to get a better photoshop performance.

The HP 15-g00AX and the Lenovo G50 are both basically the equal to each other since they both have the A8-6410 APU with the integrated Radeon R5 (Beema) graphics core. The A8-6410 is rather weak.

The HP Compaq 15-s103TX is the best of the three laptops. The Core i3-4005u is at least as powerful as the A8-6410 APU. It's integrated Intel HD 4400 graphics core will provide better performance than the Radeon R5 (Beema). However, that laptop has a nVidia GT 820m which is definitely more powerful than the Intel HD 4400. The nVidia GT 820m is pretty weak compared to other dedicated graphic chips, but it definitely better than integrated graphics.

First of all thanks for your suggestion.
Lenovo G50-45 Notebook (80E300RGIN) already have 8GB RAM then why you picked HP 15-g009AX .

But I am little bit confussed. Intel Core i3-4005u is 1.7GHz dual core processor (1.7 * 2= 3.4GHz) and AMD A8 is 2.0GHz quad core processor (2.0*4 = 8GHz). then how intel i3 is more powerful then amd a8????

Lenovo's maximum RAM frequency has mentioned 800Mhz but in HP its full 1600Mhz so i suggested you to buy HP and upgrade it to 8GB for better performance.

That is not how it works. A quad core 2.0GHz CPU is not a 8.0GHz CPU. It is a quad core 2.0GHz CPU.

The difference in performance has to do with how the Intel CPU is designed. Intel CPUs designed to process at lot more instructions for every 1Hz than AMD APUs can do. Intel more or less spends 10x more on research and development than AMD does. Also, the A8-6410 is based on the Beema architecture which is a rather simply design compared to the Kaveri architectures which is more powerful. Both Beema and Kaveri are current generation AMD APUs, but Beema is designed for "high end" tablets and low end laptops.

Actually, both laptops uses the same type of RAM, DDR3 1600.

When there are two sticks of RAM is installed DDR3 1600 operates in dual channel mode which means they will be running at 1600MHz. When only one stick of RAM is installed DDR3 1600 operates in single channel mode which means it will run at 800MHz.

If playing games with integrated graphics having RAM run in dual channel mode can improve performance by a decent amount. But when playing games with dedicated graphics the difference in performance when DDR3 RAM is running in dual channel mode or single channel mode is not very much.
