which laptop to buy

[luke_73]

I m. Planning to buy a laptop for gaming. I have never played any. So for me. If i can play games uptil 2013-14 that would be fine. I have two laptops in mind
Ist is acer i 5 4210 u, 1.7 ghz upto 2.7 ghz with nvidia g940 m
Second is asus i5 6198du with g920mx. Which one to buy. As i dont wann spend much. Processor in 1st is weak i think and may give me trouble but swcond one has low graphic card. But i think 920 mx can play most games till 2013. My budget is upto 40 k inr . Other suggestions welcome..

I would go with the Asus i5 6198du. Looks like a good laptop!

You should go for the second one (Asus) cause the graphics card installed in it will be more than enough for your needs!

Can the first one overheat, thats why u are not recommending it. Or it has low ghz???

Its just not as good overall.

When it comes to games you want the laptop with the more powerful GPU because that is going to determine how well the game will run.

The performance difference between an i5-4210u and i5-6198u is relatively minor. The difference in performance between a nVidia 940m and 920m by far exceeds the performance difference between the CPUs.

But what about 1.7 ghz vs 2.3 ghz. Wouldnt it overheat trying to turboo boost all the time.

No, they design the laptop to be able to handle the temps and not overheat. Thats why they don't have CPUs that run at 7 ghz
