BlackS3ven (4:25:31 PM): Iono, I'd rather buy something that has a nice video card because gpu's aren't as flexible as they are in desktops
BlackS3ven (4:25:40 PM): hdd's are cheap now a days
BlackS3ven (4:25:48 PM): and take 5 minutes to swap out
BlackS3ven (4:25:57 PM): once u get a laptop with a ehhhh video card

BlackS3ven (4:28:09 PM): waaay better performance though outta the 8600

BlackS3ven (4:41:15 PM): iono my .02.... Pretty big investment. I'd rather buy a more futureproof video card since you can't upgrade them
BlackS3ven (4:41:22 PM): ram- 40 bucks
BlackS3ven (4:41:33 PM): for ddr2 5300
BlackS3ven (4:44:10 PM): iono if u take ur laptop places but if you needed more space, either an external / another 2.5"
BlackS3ven (4:44:12 PM): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136139
BlackS3ven (4:44:24 PM): external 2.5" 250gb for 150 bucks
BlackS3ven (4:44:52 PM): u could buy that, swap the hdd's then have ur 250 internal and a 120 external
BlackS3ven (4:45:29 PM): so 200 dollars later, you'd have a laptop WAYYY better than the other one but you'd be able to buy it all at ur own time
BlackS3ven (4:45:35 PM): there... I'm done bitchen
BlackS3ven (4:45:36 PM): hahaha

Heh heh... don't you just love people that don't listen to your advice? lol /shrug

Then why do they ask? :think:

[xRyokenx]

Then why do they ask? :think:

Good question.

About that thread with the video card... (for some reason it's bothering me, lol) I did take everyone's advice into account. I just figured that ATi card is better than an 8600, BUT I'm gonna keep looking. :neutral:

personaly when i advise someone on some thing for there pc and they goahead and totaly ignore that advice i usually ignore their plea for help when it dosent work out right. i figure thats a fair deal. when people give advice its usually to prevent them from haveing to go sort out the mess later anyways. so they advise something that they know will work. its unfair to be expected to pick up the peices afterwords because someone ignored the advice they asked for. unless of course your being paid. then its another story
