Do i need a capture card?

I see the the Lenovo IdeaPad Y510p has an HDMI port on it. Do I still need a capture card or can't I just connect my Xbox to the laptop and thats that?

Dell Inspiron 15R (i7 model) or Lenovo Ideapad Y510 (i7 model)?

Well I need a new laptop. I'm confused between Dell Inspiron 15R and Lenovo Ideapad Y510.

Dell has:-
Intel i7 4500u (2 cores, 1.6GHz to 3.0GHz)
AMD 8850m (2GB GDDR5)

Lenovo has:-
Intel i7 4700mq (4 cores, 2.4GHz to 3.4GHz)
Nvidia Geforce GT750m (2GB GDDR5)

Both laptops have a 1TB Hard Disk, 8GB RAM and a tray load DVD writer. Both have a metal finish exterior, where Dell is completely metal while Lenovo has metal finished polycarbonate.

I will be using this laptop for watching movies, completing projects and some hardcore gaming which includes GTA 4, Far Cry 3, Battlefield 4, COD, Counter Strike, NFS etc.

I'm inclined towards Dell due to its look and good service support. But, I'm confused wheather the 2 core and less frequency model from Dell would be sufficient for gaming.

Please help me out. The maximum budget for me is 80000 INR.

If you know any other alternatives, tell me.

Since I'm from Delhi, India, brands like asus, msi, gateway, gigabyte are not available. Also I'm not a fan of e-commerce sites flipkart, snapdeal, ebay etc. So please suggest the laptop models which can be seen physically, before buying.

Needs to be under 100$ for the two of them. Can you give a link to what you find. ASUS K55N-DB81 15.6-Inch Laptop (Black) Acer Aspire V3-551-8469 Asus K55N-DS81 Lenovo G580. If any of them can be upgraded like that it would be great!

Will Lenovo Replace my laptop?

I had my laptop for three weeks now, and when I'm on it it just shuts off at random. No warning just shuts off. I just took it out of the box maybe a week ago and i don't have to much on there so don't think its any virus or anything. It must be a hardware issue.

Will they replace my laptop if i call them up? I don't have a warranty but willing to pay fire a new replacement unit and shipping. Also do they send me the laptop then can i just send it back in the shipping box or do i have to go out and but one Abe ship it to then first?
