Help me choose a laptop? =D

Recommended Posts

Or atleast tell me if any of these are good enough for ArmA 2? (yes unfortunately it has to be a laptop =[)

Laptop 1:

Toshiba Satellite A660-11M £899.99

Intel Core i7-720QM 1.6GHz (or up to 2.8GHz with Turbo Boost Technology...what ever the hell that is?)

2.5 GT/s DMI

6MB Smart Cache

4GB DDR3 Ram (I can easily upgrade this though)

NVIDIA GeForce GT330M - 1GB

16" screen (1366 x 768)

500GB SATA HDD

Windows 7 Home Premium

Laptop 2:

Sony Vaio VPC-F12X £1,479.00

Intel Core i7-740QM 1.73GHz

6GB DDR3-SDRAM

NVIDIA GeForce GT330M - 1GB

16" (1920 x 1080)

640GB SATA HDD

Windows 7 Home Premium.

Are any of these any good at all? I've been advised them by other people so want to get another opinion on them =].

The CPU's are OK but graphics cards are not very good.

You must look for GTX260m or HD4850 AT LEAST

Better would be GTX285m or HD5870

These can be found in a 15.6" laptop but are easier to find in 17"

HERE is a list of mobile GPUs in order of power.

Don't expect to play ARMA2 or Operation Arrowhead on a laptop with good graphics settings unless you are prepared to spend a couple of thousand.

I fail to see what this has to do with ArmA2 troubleshooting.
