Selling main rig, after a laptop

xander_uk2 · 29 May 2008 at 17:02

Main house PC is as follows:

Wavemaster Case
Intel Core2 Duo E6600
2GB Geil DDR2 memory
Geforce 7800GT
Samsung 2GB Spinpoint
19" Digimate TFT

Question is, what spec of laptop am I looking at to get similar performance? Can anyone recommend and specific make/model?
The above PC is used as a media centre hub as well as a few games such as WoW. Nothing to intense. Laptop budget would be about £700 or there about...

Just upped the budget to about 900, looking at the Dell XPS M150 at the moment

Ok, now looking at the XPS M1710 and have haggled free delivery and a free hard drive upgrade to 320Gb. ...price is just under the 900 mark
I have gone for the 4gb of ram and upgraded screen as well but would just like to know how capable the Nvidia 7900 GS graphics card is? I know it wont exactly be cutting edge, but is it reasonable to expect WoW to run full pelt at max settings?

Cheers guys

Hi, just had a look at your Macbook. It's a nice bit of kit, but I'm really after a 17" setup. Thanks anyway
