Afternoon everyone just needed advice from people who are way smarter then i on laptops lol.
I am curently looking at 2 laptops for gaming purposes (warhammer online, spore, c&c 3) nothing crazy like crysis but would be a plus if i could.
Toshiba Satellite A300/C01
core 2 duo p8400 (2,26GHz)
4GB 2+2 ddr2-800mhz
400gb 200+200 sata 5400
15.4 WX 200 CSV
ATI m82xt 512mb dedicated (think its a HD3650) not 100%
vista home premium
$2,299.00
HP Pavilion dv5-1005TX
core 2 duo 2.26GHz
3gb 2+1 ddr2-667 (Have extra 2gig stick for tottal 4 gig)
15.4 WXGA HD Widescreen
320gb 5400rpm
GeForce 9600M GT 512 Dedicated
vista home premium
$1,811.00
and just for a kicker while writing this i found a
HP pavilion dv9812x
core 2 duo 2.5GHz
3gb ddr2-667
Nvidia 8600M GS
17' display and blue ray
Sure hope you guys canshed some light on all this for me cause looking at it the higher cpu speed is great but slower gpu is not so hot, but have been told high clocked memory helps alot also but might not offset the gpu speed of the toshi and dv5

will most likely go with the dv5 for the cost.
