Laptop Brands

[Skeptical]

EDIT: also, if you wanted to consider upgrading your laptop it likely wouldn't be too hard: for a few hundred bucks, you can get an external hardrive for movies and such, more memory, clean it out, and overclock the crap out of it if it's a mid/low range processor. Graphics cards are cheap too.

For a laptop, I strongly advise against overclocking. Laptop components are made for lower power consumption to reduce heat. This is one of the reasons for mobile CPU's and mobile GPU's.

 

 

Paw_Claw, what's the budget? You should go with cooldog08's suggestion and use HP's laptop customization. Aim for no lower than a 2 GHz dual-core CPU and a HD 3200 or 4200.

 

Unfortunately that's exactly why my G60t can't be overclocked. However, I have a friend with a similar model (can't remember exactly what one) and he put in a far more powerful fan, and it's been running cooler than mine for the last 2 years.
