Hey, basically i’m looking in buying a new laptop i’m situated in the UK. I’m not really a harcore gamer, but when i do decide to play a game i.e assassins creed i expect to be able to play it well.
Both laptops will be 17 inch screen, high def with truelife My dielema is should i settle for the ugly vostro.
Core 2 Duo 2.00Ghz T7250
3GB of ram
240 HDD
8600m GT ( My main reason in swaying towards this laptop)
Or should i go with the HP DV9658. It much better looking plus has hdmi and digital tv tuner with it.
Same processor as Vostro
Only 2GB of ram ( 1 GB less but would vista home prem even allow usage of 3gb ram)
250 HDD
8600m GS ( This is my only anoyance with this laptop it doesnt have the GT and none of the HP line do.) GT has double stream processors as GS which means better gaming.)
Should i get the ugly dell with better spec ram and graphics card, Or should i get the HP with the HDMI and tv card but not as good graphics card.
Please i’m really stuck i need valid input.
You already know what you’re doing. Basically, it boils down to which you give higher priority to. Can check online benchmarks between the two video card to see if the difference is huge. I would usually go for the better video card. But that’s just me.
As far as gaming laptops go though, here are some great options for various price ranges:http://gamingnotebooks.blogspot.com/
