gamehead200 Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Why such a heavy duty video card? I KNOW you're not gonna be doing THAT much extreme gaming on that... I'd lower the video card and up the RAM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CptMurphy Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 The VC really isn't that fast. It's clocked down so that it'll use less battery power. Also, the processor isn't powerfull enough to play any high end games like "Fear", which recommends 3GHz proc., well. It's good for all around use though so that's cool. It's also awesome that the Pentium M has internal wireless capability. It's good for an everyday use, but no laptop can ever trully beat a good ol' desktop.

nmX.Memnoch Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 well u know the saying, the more the merrier, it applies to bites of RAM too It even applies to bytes of RAM! That chipset should support more than 1GB RAM...unless Intel limited the mobile version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
