Originally posted by Dash Hey im going to Uni soon so ill be getting myself a new spify laptop.

So can any of you guys give me some advice as what would be the best combination for me to get for gaming and work.
I was thinking DDR ram between 630and a 1000. 80 gig. 2.3 Ghz processor. faster if i can get it. but i need some advice on graphics cards, sounds cards, dvd burner or not. Pentium, celeron or somting else. Windows xp home or bussiness edition. that sort of thing. please give me some advice.

k well ur asking pentium or celeron
basically if you're going for gaming, then celeron is a NO
pentium is alright
but with laptops, i recomend centrino, they are known to go faster, and not heat up as quickly
It's simple Murt... just take the old cables out, put the new ones in their place and that's it... and you can always move the cables around to make it look a little neater... I've some some crazy wire mods to my case so there's really no wires anywhere... my PCs finally running at it's full speed.
Murt you sure do love your computer. Anyways what MMO are we gonna play. I am going for Lineage 2 when it comes out...then on to W.O.W. Then if EQ2 comes out before the end of my lifetime, ill go to that.

Just do what I did Murt... buy round cables, and then buy "sleeves" so you can feed all those power cables though it and it becomes a round tube filled with wires... pretty neat...

Hi, I just got a Ge-Force FX 128 mb ddr AGP 8x/4x video card (90$). It was an impulse buy and i regret it, just wonder how bad it is. I guess it is better than my 64 mb ddr G-force. I wonder if WoW will run good on it. Oh well if you could give me some info this card i would be in your debt. Thanks
Only reason i think its bad is b/c my friend said it was crap compared to his 128 ddr geforce Ti
If anyone feels like explaining what to look for in a video card so this doesnt happen again i woudl be freakin happy.
Thanks man, i thought about a raidon but my friend had big problems with it and SWG. Basically he couldnt play. They may have fixed that, but it seems that the g-force is the most compadable.

If you wait to do something until the last minute, your more efficient since it will only take 1 minute.
