Hey all-
I've got a riddle that needs solving... or, several questions rather. I was just informed that my family will pay up to approximately 1000 $ for a new laptop for college. Needless to say, the prospect of a new computer made me giddy at the thought of being able to play new games on my pc.
Heres what I'm looking for:
A mid-sized screen
A goodly amount of ram and disk space
A fairly nice graphics card
A decent processor
Preferred:
Slots to upgrade graphics card
Can run cod4 with little to no lag
Crysis on xp-crack high (yeah, good luck, I know)
And that's that.
Note: *I don't really know anything about picking a good graphics card. Help here would be appreciated.
* I would be interested in sites that let you mix and match parts; I just don't know where to look.
*I may be willing to shell out a bit from my pocket for better components, we'll see.
Thanks much!
