Hi all. I'm looking to get myself a laptop in the £400-£500 range, and i came across this Acer Aspire 5613AWLMi, which packs 2Gb of ram, a C2D T2350 and a GeForce GO 7300 turbocache supporting 256mb all running on Vista HP. This is at the top of my budget (£500) but seems like a fairly decent spec.
Also, I found a lappy with 1Gb of ram and the Radeon Xpress 1250 graphics solution, also with Vista HP but at just over £50 cheaper. Now, 2gb ram > 1gb ram, obviously, BUT, i'm unlikely to be using it for more than playing some WoW, MAYBE some other older games (Warcraft 3 for example).
My main problem is that there seem to be no proper reviews for either of these graphics controllers anywhere at all, let alone compared to eachother, and therefore I'm unsure whether the first laptop is worth the £50 extra.
Anyone have enough experience with these graphics chips to be able to recommend either way?
