Looking to buy this lappy and wondered if anyone has any experience of the range, or could comment on the performance based on the following spec:
Dell Vostro 1700
- Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T7250 - 2GHz (x2), 800MHz FSB, 2MB L2 Cache
- RAM: 2GB DDR2-667MHz
- HDD: 160GB Serial ATA 7200rpm
- Screen: 17" Widescreen TFT (1440x900 - 16:10)
- GFX: NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 256MB
- OS: Windows Vista Ultimate
It will be used secondary to my desktop and would like it to be able to play WoW pretty smoothly and the likes of COD4 at something like 70% config.
I appreciate it will struggle with the likes of Crysis but I'm hoping that the majority of games would be fine.
The other question is, would I see a benefit of upgrading to 4gb ram from the installed 2gb?
Many thanks in advance
