DUELMASTER30 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I found this deal on Frys.com and I thought for 299.99 it was a pretty good deal.

Laura Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Yes, it will. Just make sure that the battery life is what you're looking for. I personally wouldn't buy it because of the warranty, but I guess it's only $300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked it up and it said a maximum of 2.7 hours...The warranty also is a little annoying so I'll have to reconsider this thing.

Laura Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 You might have to really push the Intel integrated chip to play Runescape HD with full settings. I know it will play RSHD, but perhaps without all of those effects. The processor is better, which is really the only step up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy500fan Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 it is but AMD makes it kind of slow, i would reccomend Intel though What? Where did you get that crazy idea from? They both produce fast processors and slow processors, company has nothing to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jernlov Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 ...and I just realised I worded my post terribly up there, making me look stupid. What I meant to say was "for the average end-user, there is no reason to specifically go for Intel over AMD." My Athlon X2 7750 is a pretty nice CPU and it has served me well for over a year now, gaming and all. Steam | Soup | Last.fm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Athlon X2 7750 is a pretty nice CPU and it has served me well for over a year now, gaming and all. I have the same processor, and I agree. AMD processors are perfectly good for whatever money you pay for one. ~ W ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
