Best gaming laptops under Rs 1.1 lakh

The sub ₹1.10 lakh segment finally lets you pair a muscular RTX 4060 (or a cut-price RTX 4050) with modern 13th/14th-gen Intel HX chips and AMD’s latest Ryzen 7/9 CPUs, while still leaving room for roomy SSDs and fast-refresh screens. We have ranked the top gaming laptops under 1.1 lakh below by price-to-performance. These seven machines can all hold 90 fps-plus at 1080p on high settings, yet each leans into a different strength: some chase outright frame-rates, others favour stamina or portability. 

1. ASUS TUF Gaming F15 — ₹1,04,990

The TUF F15 tops the value chart by squeezing a 140 W RTX 4060, one of the highest power limits in this class, beside Intel’s 10-core i7-13620H. In real-world play, that means ~100 fps in Forza Horizon 5 with settings on High, while esports titles soar well past 200 fps. A 15.6-inch 144 Hz IPS panel (62% sRGB) keeps action smooth and colours respectable. ASUS’ twin 84-blade Arc-Flow fans and five heat-pipes dump heat through four vents, so the GPU holds the mid-70°C range, although fan noise is noticeable in Turbo mode. The 90 Wh battery is the largest here, stretching to five hours of light work, and fast-charge hits 50% in half an hour. One-zone RGB keyboard, Thunderbolt 4, HDMI 2.1, and 2.5 GbE round off a 2.2 kg MIL-STD-810H-tested chassis.

2. HP Omen 16 — ₹1,07,990

HP couples AMD’s eight-core Ryzen 7 7840HS (boosts 5.1 GHz) with a full-fat 140 W RTX 4060, landing ~110 fps in Hogwarts Legacy on High. Cooling relies on dual fans, four heat-pipes, and a broader rear vent: expect GPU temps in the 70s and 42 dB of fan noise under sustained load. The 16.1-inch FHD IPS display refreshes at 144 Hz, hits 300 nits, and covers 62% sRGB, plenty for gaming and streaming. 16 GB DDR5-5600 and a 512 GB SSD ship as standard, with a free M.2 slot for expansion. The 70 Wh battery manages four hours of mixed use and supports HP Fast Charge (50% in 30 min). At 2.29 kg, it travels well, includes Wi-Fi 6E and HDMI 2.1, and even bundles Microsoft Office for coursework.

3. Lenovo LOQ 15IRX9 — ₹1,12,491

Lenovo asks a little more cash but sweetens the pot with 24 GB of DDR5-4800 memory and an RTX 4060 running at 115 W. Intel’s 14-core i7-13650HX pairs neatly, delivering 20,000+ points in Cinebench R23 multicore. The 15.6-inch FHD IPS display refreshes at 144 Hz, reaches 300 nits, and covers 100% sRGB. Dual fans, wide rear vents, and a 60 Wh battery keep the 2.4 kg chassis cool and quiet enough for library work; battery life sits around four hours of browsing. Upgrade paths are generous: two SO-DIMM slots and twin PCIe 4.0 bays await. Ports include USB-C 10 Gbps with 140 W power-in, plus DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.1, and Gigabit LAN.

4. Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 — ₹1,02,990

Cheapest in the line-up, the Helios Neo swaps in a 14-core i7-14700HX while dropping to an RTX 4050 (100 W). CPU-heavy tasks fly, and the GPU still musters 90 fps in games like Shadow of the Tomb Raider at High. A 16-inch WUXGA IPS panel (165 Hz, 400 nits) plus G-SYNC keeps play tear-free. AeroBlade metal fans, liquid-metal paste, and four exhausts hold temperatures below 80°C and noise under 42 dB. 1 TB SSD and 16 GB RAM ship standard, both upgradeable. The 90 Wh battery manages four-plus hours of paperwork, and twin Thunderbolt 4 ports please creators. It is heavy at 2.6 kg yet feels rock-solid.

5. GIGABYTE G6X — ₹1,08,976

Gigabyte’s G6X matches Lenovo’s CPU, the i7-13650HX, but caps its RTX 4060 at 105 W. The upside is a cooler 2.5 kg chassis and a roomy 16-inch 165 Hz WUXGA panel, though colour coverage sits at 45% NTSC. WINDFORCE cooling (twin 59-blade fans, four heat-pipes) keeps the GPU in the low-80s, albeit with an audible whoosh. The factory load-out is healthy: 16 GB DDR5-4800 and a 1 TB SSD, with both slots spare. A 73 Wh battery manages four hours of web use, and USB-C PD lets you trickle-charge from a power bank.

6. MSI Katana 15 — ₹1,08,980

MSI’s Katana focuses on portability: 2.25 kg and under 25 mm thick. Intel’s i7-13620H drives a 105 W RTX 4060, good for ~95 fps in Cyberpunk 2077 on High. A 15.6-inch 144 Hz panel is smooth but only 45% NTSC, so colours look muted. 16 GB DDR5 and a 1 TB SSD arrive standard; the single free M.2 slot lets you add more storage later. Dual fans and four heat-pipes keep the GPU below 85°C, though fan hum is constant. The 53 Wh battery lasts just three hours of document work, and there is no Ethernet jack, so Wi-Fi 6E handles multiplayer.

7. Acer Nitro V 16 — ₹1,07,240

The Nitro V squeezes AMD’s fresh Ryzen 7 8845HS (boosts 5.1 GHz) and an 85 W RTX 4060 into a 16-inch body. The WUXGA IPS panel refreshes at 165 Hz and covers 100% sRGB, making it the colour standout in this tier. Twin-fan CoolBoost cooling keeps temperatures tidy but climbs past 46 dB under Turbo. Storage is generous, 1 TB SSD, with 16 GB DDR5 on two sticks. The 58 Wh battery manages around three hours of office work. At 2.5 kg, it feels sturdy, while Thunderbolt-4, HDMI 2.1, and Gigabit LAN cover connectivity. 

Which laptop should you buy?

Go for the ASUS TUF F15 if you want the best frames per rupee, the HP Omen 16 if you’d like the same 140 W GPU plus a larger battery, or the Lenovo LOQ 15 if colour-accurate work and plentiful RAM matter. Heavy multitaskers who need Thunderbolt ports and a big CPU can turn to the Predator Helios Neo 16, whereas the GIGABYTE G6X offers a large 165 Hz screen and 1 TB SSD without stretching the budget. Travellers will appreciate the lighter MSI Katana 15, while the Acer Nitro V 16 is the pick for a vivid, 100% sRGB panel at the price. Match the line-up to your priorities and you’ll land a laptop that games hard yet stays within ₹1.10 lakh.
