I dont want intergrated graphics and nvidia is a good name.
I was wondering if someone can give me some info on what they think of a laptop like this. I wont be running anything to hard on it for games. I figured all i would have to do is add another 512 to make it a gig of ram.
LOL it should run GuildWars no? :o
Thanks!!!

Dude, that machine has integrated GPU:eek:
You need at least 1000$ to have a decent GPU:)

Re: First time notebook buyer
My quick thoughts, I'm not sure how great the graphics are, AMD's are fine, although the Core Duo and Core 2 Duo seem to be better options at present (at least from what I've read, although I'm not sure on price points).
My main question to you would be what are you looking for a laptop for, with a 17" screen this is NOT going to be very portable.

Re: First time notebook buyer
Is it intergrated...oops my bad!
Answer:
Re: First time notebook buyer
being portable would be nice but the 17" is always nice!!!
it is the price that i cant seem to beat. I can get it cheaper then what is listed.

Be careful not to fixate too much on price, buying something for $700 that doesn't do what you need is worthless.

Re: First time notebook buyer
How big is your budget?
I believe that you should've posted this thread in "what notebook should i buy?" thread:)
Answer:
Re: First time notebook buyer
Well i do have about 800 bucks... i guess i could find another 200.
Sorry for all the trouble. First time using the website.
LOL i think you are right about posting it in the different section.
Gotta love the big newbie sign under my name =(
So nvidia is better you say!!
Answer:
Re: First time notebook buyer
Um, depends what cards, the X1600 ATI card is a pretty high end mobile graphics card, while NVidia I believe does hold some edge, it really depends what cards you can get for your money, if you can get an X1600 I'd take that over a 6100 any day of the week.
However check the "what notebook should i buy" section, is has lots of information (including graphics card comparisons) which should give you things to consider/ponder.
