If you are a student and need a budget laptop for your study and also want to play high graphics games, then you’ve landed in the right place. Here I have compiled a list of best laptops under 30000 for gaming. I specially made this list for gaming, so if you need a laptop for any other uses, then check my ‘All in one 30000‘ laptop list.
What You Should Know Before Buying Laptop Under 30000 for Gaming.
There was a time when you could not think to play high graphics games on laptop with a price tag of Rs.30000. Because at that time we could not get a powerful processor and GPU at this price range. But those days are past and now we have Ryzen 5 processor with Vega 8 integrated GPU.
However, the good integrated GPU is still far away from this price range, but vega 8 is very powerful and easily handle your casual gaming at decent settings. Apart from the processor and GPU, the RAM, drive, display, and sound is also important, but don’t worry I done all the resource before making this list. So choose the best laptop from this list and save your money and time.
I update this list every month and I try my best to provide latest and best laptop
These are the Best Gaming Laptops under 30000 Rs
1. Acer Aspire 3 A315-41
The Acer A315-41 is my first choice in the list of best laptops under 30000 for gaming. It comes with AMD’s latest Ryzen 5 Quad-Core processor and vega 8 integrated GPU, which is the powerful combo and highly capable to handle the AAA titles game at low and medium settings.
Read more I tested PUBG PC, LITE and APEX on this laptop and the results were satisfactory. However, Vega 8 is an integrated GPU so you can’t expect high-end gaming performance, but you can play these games at low and decent setting without any lag. The processor is AMD Ryzen 5(2500U), which clocked at a base frequency of 2.0GHz. But it can also boost up to 3.6 GHz. It also comes with 4GB DDR4 RAMÂ and 1 TB HDD for storage. You can also upgrade RAM up to 16Gb and for gaming, I highly recommend you to upgrade RAM up to 8GB on this machine. It also has m2 SSD drive slot, So for faster booting speed and quick app response, install at least 120GB SSD on it. A laptop has a 15.6-inch 1920 x 1080 HD LED Backlit TFT display, which is not very impressive but compared to the price & competitors we can say it quite good. And for gaming, the full HD display is really necessary. On the battery side, this laptop offers 3-4 hours backup under normal usage. On the connectivity front, it has a two USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0 ports, and HDMI, RJ45 and card reader as well. More information please check the specification table.
Overall, this one is the best casual gaming laptop under 30000. If you are a student and you need a powerful machine for collage projects and also want to play games in free time, then this one is the best choice for you.

2. Asus X505ZA
The Asus X505ZA is the second choice on this list. This laptop is recently launched in the Indian market with AMD’s second-gen Ryzen 5 processor. If you need a good looking budget-friendly laptop for casual gaming, then this is the best option.
Read more In terms of design, it looks very stylish and classy. The brushed metallic finish on the lid, as well as the palm rest, makes the laptop look outstanding. The build quality is also good, at least compared to the price. The best part of this laptop is its ultra-thin construction and light design. You can easily carry it around with you at all times. The laptop comes with a full HD display with a 1920×1080 pixels resolution, which offers good colour reproduction and a 178-degree wide viewing angle. I can easily say, it has one of the best display quality compared to other laptops in the same price range. On the processing department, it comes with Ryzen 5 2500U chipset clocked at 2.0GHz. It also boosts up to 3.6 GHz when it required. For processing support, it comes with 4GB DDR4 RAM and 1TB HDD. You can also upgrade RAM up to 16GB and install m2 SSD. The benefit of an AMD processor here is that it brings along with the Radeon Vega 8 and Vega 3 and it makes both laptops much more powerful laptop than most others in this price range. You can easily play PUBG, CS: GO, and Fortnite at low and medium settings.
Oveall, the Asus X505ZA is another best option for gaming under 30000 Rs. With the Ryzen 5 chipset and supported the Vega 8 GPU, you can expect this device to perform pretty well in heavy tasks. The good quality full HD display and comfortable keyboard also help to improve your gaming experience on this machine.Â

3. Lenovo Ideapad 330 Ryzen 5
The Lenovo Ideapad 330-15ARR is my last choice in the list of best laptops under 30000 for gaming. On the design front, the dual-tone black and silver colour scheme makes this laptop look and feel stylish and premium. It has a metallic silver coloured chassis made of high-quality hard plastic, which looks really nice.
Read more The device is powered by the Ryzen 5 2500U with a base clock of 2.0GHz and turbo frequency of 3.6GHz. The processing power is the same as above, so we directly move on to the next part. For the smooth task, it comes with 8GB of DDR4 RAM clocked at 2400 Mhz and is expandable. A 15.6 inch Full HD LED Backlit Anti-glare display to ensure you get perfect gaming and video experience. Please note, 8GB variant doesn’t come with full HD display, so if you need full HD display then buy the 4GB variant and upgrade to 8GB latter. The battery on this laptop delivers a decent 4 hours of usage time on a single charge. And it also supports Lenovo fast charging technology. On the port distribution front, it has all required connectivity options, including USB type C and two USB 3.0 ports, exclude DVD writer.
According to the performance base, I highly recommend this laptop for multitasking use, software & app development and graphics related works. You can also play some high graphics games with medium settings on this laptop as well.
