Hi, im comtemplating buying this laptop :

Samsung R60
T5550 cpu
2gb RAM
160GB HDD
1250 ATI express thing gfx card

How would this play games? Is it a good one for £360?

Having had a quick look online that seems a fairly decent price since you will get to walk away with it today. Online it appears to be retailing closer to £400 inc delivery but that is just from the quickest of searches. :)

Cool man, sounds good - what about the gfx chip in it though?

How do samsungs rate as a laptop?

Would it be able to play BF2? :)

Thanks again, quick replies would be appreciated - staff starting to get arsey :D
 
I don't know about the quality of Samsung laptops first hand but the specifications seem decent and if they are anything like the other Samsung products I've used they should be fine.

I think it will probably play BF2 but most likely on pretty low detail settings, the X1250 is not a particularly powerful graphics chipset.
 
X1250 is a pretty crap graphics card, I wouldn't expect much from it :) If you are gonna play BF2 on it then low detail settings...

Yeah my uni laptop has a X1300 and its pants at propper gaming (its also got a turion and 3 gig of ram so the only thing its vagually good at is writing dvd's and going on the net)

I wouldnt expect it to do more than the lowest settings

As an extra thought you might want a usb mouse (at least) as gaming on a touch pad (and the laptop keyboard) can be cramped and get rather hot for your hands...
 
im sure you could find a config or something somewhere for bf2. not sure whether some games would support on board graphics. but it should play counter strike and maybe css with a good config okay.
