AXO Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 My HP has 2 gb of ddr2 ram 2.0ghz dual core and a 512 mb dedicated ati radeon gpu and for sc2 to run "okay" all setting are on medium to low... mostly low. Its safe to that the game will probably run on that laptop, but I'm fairly certain all your setting will have to be set on medium or low and it will look like shit. If you plan to do any type of gaming outside of minesweeper it is necessary to have a dedicated GPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea but that is going to add around a $100 to your final cost. When the laptop is in use its going to be set on something so I don't see why the weight would matter. Also I bet when it is on power saver settings the battery life is at least 1hr 30min+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IamFuton Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 I've been really happy with my HP laptop. I've had it for a couple years now and it runs everything really well. The trick when buying laptops is to know exactly what you're looking for. If you're looking for a gaming laptop make sure you get a dedicated video card, otherwise you are wasting your time. If you stay patient and know what to look for you will find one within your budget. P.S. Dells suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so your options become so much better... I would say mac if you know how to use it. aside from all the people hating on macs and bashing them I find they have superior build quality, also OSX is much smoother than windows everything looks much nicer too. I'm not being bias since I do not own a mac, but if I ever do need an upgrade for a laptop a mbp is definately what I'm getting next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
