All i really want to do is be able to play World of Warcraft at the moment. I know this computer is capable of doing this but is it sufficient? Later on i might want to add some higher end games such as cs:s. I think that this was only $1336. This is a good price for me at the moment but i would like it lower. Is there any other laptops that u would recommend?

Looking At (affordable) Laptops For Gaming And College Life.?

June 24, 2009 by admin  
Filed under 17 inch Laptop

I’m looking at laptops for when I go to college in the fall, but want one that’ll stand up to what I want it to do. So far I’ve customized a Dell Inspiron 1720 and an HP dv9500t. Some of the specs end up being: 2 gigs of ram, 2.0 Pentium Dual Core, 7200rpm HD, 17″ monitor. I’m not too worried about Vista because I kinda plan on loading XP 64 bit anyways.
I’m looking for my computer to handle games like Hellgate: London and battlefield 2 with some ease. Any opionions on the above products or suggestions for new ones are greatly appreciated.

Trouble Finding The Right Notebook?

June 24, 2009 by admin  
Filed under 17 inch Laptop

Hi guys, I’ve been doing a lot of research lately on the right laptop for my needs ahead of time for my freshman college year. I’ve been looking around for a laptop that meets certain requirements for myself, mostly under brand names such as Toshiba, Sony, Velocity Micro, and Extreme Notebooks. Other brands are good, but I’d rather not get a HP, Gateway, and Dell from a business standpoint, they just don’t appeal much to me either.
The trouble I’m having is due to the fact that I want certain things in the laptop that are hard to all get together.
Preferably a-
2.4 gigahertz processor
2 gigs of RAM (for running that shitty OS known as VISTA)
at least a 150 gig hard drive, but no larger than 200
a dedicated graphics card, preferably Nvidia that is at least a 7 series card
17 inch screen but 15.4 is acceptable
If you can find a notebook that meets these needs or customize one to meet them and is under $1200 – It’s a tall order I know, but I will be forever grateful!
Thanks
