Decent laptop. need.
molbjerg:
But you don't know any more about those :P
I wasn't saying that you don't know about laptops, I was saying that in general you don't really know much about technology but you speak as if you do - which is dangerous if people decide to take your advice.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Laptops and desktops are fundamentally identical in architecture anyway (they mainly differ in numbers and other areas such as cooling); if you don't understand one, chances are you don't really understand the other either.

Oh, hmm. I doubt it. I've built different computers and I know the good hardwares I purchase. Otherwise, the computers I built would go to shit. There's a lot of good brands out there, I'm just picky.
I just don't know much about laptops. Never dealt with one.

Oh, we're not questioning that you know the hardware specs of the things you buy. We're just wondering if you know what those specs actually mean, and how they affect the overall picture of a machine's performance.
Anyway Mikan, are you still looking for a quad? Because a mid/high-end Core 2 Duo would make a better laptop gaming machine. I'm not sure if that's going to fit within the budget though.
And again, forget about using all 4 pieces of RAM. I don't know of any laptop chipset in the Montevina platform and earlier than can utilise more than 2 channels, anyway; even the PM45/GS45 chipsets (on Montevina) support up to 2 channels maximum.
In my opinion though, if you're looking for a gaming machine and you don't need the portability, just go for a desktop. You can get better performance for a lower cost.

The fact of it is, whenever I read your posts about tech-stuff, I groan, because it's based on no knowledge - . it's like the result of seeing adverts for computers on TV or something. So, if you're kind hearted, you will refrain from offering your 'advice' to them, as the chances are you are doing more harm than good, and speaking for the sake of hearing your own voice.
As mentioned, if you really want to game on your laptop, spend those extra £££'s on GPU rather than CPU.
