Hey there! I want to get a NPR 50,000 laptop. Suggest me a laptop with a quad core processor and a decent dedicated graphic card (not intel integrated low end graphic adapter) for this price.
And also where should we contact to get the product if I intend to buy one?
Get an Acer Aspire 7 with Ryzen 5 3550H and GTX 1650 4GB GDDR6 GPU. It comes with a M.2 SSD and is blazing fast. Have been using it for nearly one year. Also, the charger is very fast. Great cooling system. Go for it!
