Good Day sir. I would like a suggestion for a laptop with the following requirements.
1. Preferred Brand : Anything but Acer.
2. Budget : about 3-3.5k
3. Usage : For design purpose(labview, solidworks). able to play fps games will be great too. biggrin.gif
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: as big as it can be within budget
5. Weight: heavy or light is no issue.

hey thivaakar, just curious.. what was wrong with Acer?

Anyways, for your budget and screen size requirement there is a MSI Gaming Notebook with 17.3" screen within your budget.

MSI GP70 2PE Leopard - SRP3,299
Intel i7-4710HQ processor and Nvidia GT840M GPU with 2GB of DDR3 RAM.

Not as many features as the GE series (MSI GE70 with 17.3" screen cost 4k+) but it has an extra mSATA HDD bay for you to upgrade with SSD.

Another option is to invest in the GE60 2PE with a better GPU, Nvidia GTX860M with 2GB of GDDR5 RAM. Smaller screen at 15.6" but the notebook has 4k output via HDMI so you can set up a larger screen in your studio.  thumbup.gif
