Nice, 2048 MB of memory on a laptop! I usually ***** to people how little RAM they have, well can't do that to you.
Sorry can't comment on the 3DMark results. I used to play around with a lot but haven't done so in years. By the way, how much this beast weights? |

Very very nice. Have you tried Tomb Raider Lost Legends with Next Gen content turned on? That should push your system quite a bit.
FEAR should also be a good challenge. |

Very nice. Your lap top looks like it should perform like a regular computer and for a lap top thats excellent.
Try to run Neverwinter Nights without any glitchs that would be an ultimate test. |

The beast weights only around 8.6 lbs. I can put my mousepad, mouse, small headphones, laptop, AC adapter and some cd's in my case and carry it with ease. So it dosent bother me much at all. Sure its not a laptop to hold in your lap but thats not what I bought it for
 Yes I have Tomb Raider and Oblivion both running on high settings. No slow downs even after no reboots for 24 hrs or more and I've been playing both games since they've been out almost. Both look amazingly stunning! It really does perform to a comparable desktop. When I bought the laptop a comparable full desktop system would have cost at least $1500 so spending $2000 was worth it for me considering I take it out with my every day. I have the following games on it: UT 2004, Doom 3, Quake 4, WC: TFT, StarCraft, Counter-Strike 1.6, CS: Source, DoD:S, Tomb Raider Legend, HL2 DM, Oblivion, WoW, Need For Speed Black Edition. All run flawlessly. I also backup movies to DVD's daily. This post has been edited by GoranCro: Jun 12 2006, 06:03 PM |

OMG! So many games on one small powerhouse?!! Unfair! You shouldn't post such things here ... you make so many people (like myself) jealous!
Now, I'm seriously considering a laptop to buy with my first salary  . A portable gaming machine would be awesome.

Sweet setup man, love it. Thats the nice thing about some of the new "high end" laptop systems that are coming out these days. If you know where to find em at a reasonable cost they usually don't cost much more then desktop systems and they perform pretty much the same.
I have to admit that I'm truely jealous, but I hope to have a similar system soon. If you could let us know where you got it I'm sure that I wouldn't be the only one greatful for such information. |

nice laptop there, eh? Yet, I wouldn't want that laptop as I really want a MacBook Pro right now, I really need a Mac anytime now to replace this piece of crap:
QUOTE Samsung NV 5000 Intel Pentium III (Coppermine) 701 Mhz 192 MB RAM PC100 20GB HDD Designed for Windows 98/ME No fancy bluetooth or wireless capabilities 10 or 12 inch screen S3 Savage IV (No hardware 3D support :s) However, it's nice to see that Linux runs on it PERFECTLY;) xboxrulz This post has been edited by xboxrulz: Jun 22 2006, 11:52 PM |
