Its tough to get 4-5 yrs out of a laptop, very tough if you want it for gaming. If you built a top of the line laptop 1.5 yrs ago, do you really think it would run FEAR, or BF2??? I doubt it, atleast not on medium settings PCs are a...

Personally, for a notebook, I would be happier with 2GB of ram, and a very good (top of the line) 128 mb card, instead of 1 gig, and 256. It would be about the same price Alot of 128 cards (6600gt) can preform as good as as some...

I own a R3000, and couldnt be happier. I have a P4. but thats not by choice. I would prefer a AMD in all my CPUs. As far as them being made by HP, they are still Compaqs. If they were HPs, they would have that on there. Its the same...

this is the one your downloaded correct? 1. Creative Sound Blaster Audigy unified series Beta driver with OpenAL support 2.08.0002 (24.99 MB)

Ya, they are overpriced, your paying for the name, and the case lol A AMD64, 3000, 512 MB ram, 128 MB vid card, gets you a pricetag of 3000 US. Not exactly the best deal. But they do look sweet, and if you had a few Gs to blow, its...

I wanted a 17 inch or 19 inch screen, for movies, etc etc, when I am at home. And it be kinda pointless, to use the internal keyboard on a laptop, with the screen right behind me, thats all. If I am goin buy a big monitor, and not...

Hey, I own a Compaq Presario R3000, which is about a 2.5 GHZ, 512 ram, 128 ATI IGP, and my question is.... Would it make sence, to hook up a 17 or 19 inch widecreen monitor, to my laptop, and then run a keyboard from it, and use it...

Well, no matter what you use to listen from, the power of your laptop (soundcard) is the problem. So if your using headphones, speakers, or internal speakers, they will all peak very low, based on the soundcard In my past laptops, I...

There is just one other external soundcard you purchase, and its about 179 US, I cant remember the name sorry, but I heard its better then the Audigy, but when you get that high into sound,you cant notice the difference, unless you spend...

Headphones all the way. Go for the Sennheiser HD 155. They kick ass and are priced at 159.00 which is a great deal for these. Crystal clear sound. Another thing to buy, would be a Audigy 2 soundblaster, made for a notebook. I...
