by Robin Sinha , 26 June 2015

Asus on Thursday launched its ROG GL552 gaming laptop in India, at a price tag of Rs. 70,999. The high-end laptop is available in Black+Gray colour variant to purchase from leading e-commerce websites.

The Windows 8.1-based ROG GL552 features a 15.6-inch full-HD (1920×1080 pixels) resolution IPS backlit display with an aspect ratio of 16:9, and a 178-degree viewing angle. It is powered by a fourth-generationIntel Core i7-4720HQ processor (4 cores, 8 threads, 2.6GHz base clock, 3.6GHz Turbo) with 8GB of 1600MHz DDR3 RAM (upgradable) and Nvidia GeForce GTX 950M (N16P-GT) for handling graphic intensive games and applications. Intel HD Graphics 4600 also comes integrated inside the laptop.

Besides an HD webcam, the Asus ROG GL552 houses a 1TB (7200RPM) SATA 2.5-inch HDD and an optical drive. In the connectivity section, the gaming laptop includes a RJ45 Ethernet jack, a headphone and mic combo jack, a VGA port (D-Sub), three USB 3.0 ports, Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n, and one HDMIport. A SD card reader alongside a built-in speaker and microphone is also included. It weighs 2.6kgs, and measures 382×255×16-32.6mm. It runs on a 48WHr 4-cell Li-ion battery.

"We are extremely elated to announce gaming without limits with the launch of ROG GL552. Backed by high strength, it takes design aesthetics a notch higher with F22 stealth fighter-inspired design that commands the game. It brings the best of Intel and Microsoft integrated into the device to endow it with maximum gaming capabilities," said Peter Chang, Regional Head, South Asia & Country Manager, System Business Group, Asus India during the launch.

A budget build here.
Go for a used i5 2nd Gen + H61 Setup if it's available to you.
you might be able to save some cash which you can utilize getting yourself a decent GPU
also you don't need a fancy motherboard, it won't get you more performance at all by itself.
bear in your mind that i5 2nd to 5th gen all are almost equivalent in performance when used alongside a Dedicated GPU so save cash and go for the 2nd Gen that is almost in every way as good as a 5th gen in performance with a seperate Graphic Card

If you need a lappy try for ASUS ROG series or Alienware (1400+ i think).

Any thing less than 960 is old now. Infact 960 is becoming pretty standard in most of the laptops now a days. Get a 960 + skylake i5.

Hmm ok. But keep in mind if you have a 2k monitor these cards wont have the ram/processing power to drive it.
