This a good price for a laptop?
2 GB 667 mhz RAM
Windows Vista Home Premium
160 7200 RPM HD
256mb geforce 8600M GT
15.4 HD widescreen(1280x800) max
4 years of warranty with dell
4 years of dell completecare and lojack security
cd/dvd burner dual layer support
9 cell lithium ion battery
mcafee 3 years antivirus, anti-spyware, firewall
high definition audio 2.0
dell wireless 802.11g wireless mini card
all this for around 1600 including tax, good deal?
oh yea if i am going to play games but not like hardcore but like just recreational play, is 1280x800 too small of a resolution? should i upgrade that part?
and is my 8600M GT sufficient to play modern games and such?
Thank You
Answers:
If you want a deal, its not the best deal. But for the spec, I will buy the laptop. Sony, Toshiba will cost you $200-300 more for the same spec. CPU at 2.2, its the latest so you are paying premium. If you want a deal, look for 2.0 or 1.8Ghz CPU laptop. Save you a lot of money plus it will be good enough for gaming. Vista is a problem for gaming since not all the games are compatible, especially older games.
$1600.00? Hell no!!
That is more than twice the actual cost!
You can get that in a new Sony VIO for 799.00 on sale in Houston Texas or microcenter.com
pretty good but check newegg first maybe you can get a cheaper computer with an equal or more power for a cheaper price yea the 8600 gt is still good for today's games and for the games coming for the next 3 years 1280x800 is pretty good
$1600 is a bit much for that. You can get a dell with all of that and more for about $900. Or a high end toshiba, or HP for around $800-900. You don't necessarily have to spend that much money for a good quality laptop.
Thats a pretty decent price for a gaming machine. Only thing i don't like is Vista. other than that, it's all good.
