23:50:43 Dec 20th 07 - Mr. Dung Beetle:

please bump if not at top :)

for x-mas i wanna get a new laptop and i have a budget of roughly £350.

i have 2 laptops in my view for playing this game and AoE III

Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo Mobile V5535

HP 6720s Laptop Intel Celeron 540

please help me decide which one has higher/better graphics for playing AoE 3

What would you pick? plz review em for me


00:14:14 Dec 21st 07 - Mr. Ghouma:

Do you play AOE3 alot online?


00:17:08 Dec 21st 07 - Mr. Mbeidas The Black Prince:

idk most companies like dell and HP computers are so weak for games , but it's still what windows you choose , that will decide .


00:33:29 Dec 21st 07 - Mr. Might The God of Cows:

Don't get Vista cause it slows everything down! Also both the laptops suck!


00:46:03 Dec 21st 07 - Lord Clone IX:

If you want even more frustration next to that of your wife, then take Vista. I was forced to use it for a few weeks and its was absolutely horrible. I suggest you stick with Windows XP.

As for laptops: Where's the dual core? :p Sorry, cant really review those for you, so you gotta wait for others. While though the price is low, I don't know if what you get for it in return is worth it.


00:50:54 Dec 21st 07 - Mr. Clone XXX:

OMG....I started a trend....I saw the name for this thread and thought...."wait a moment, i didnt write this...."

 

If you curious as to what I am talking about, I was Ms. Dung Beetle last era^^ Does this make you my husband or something?:P


00:54:08 Dec 21st 07 - Lord Clone IX:

Ahh. I just saw Dung Beetle and assumed it was you. O well. Probably not much difference anyway.


00:56:43 Dec 21st 07 - Mr. Xiax:

My advice is to not get the generic graphics card that comes with the parent company who sells the computer, those suck so badly. Get a laptop with either an ATI, or Nvidia graphics card.


01:05:56 Dec 21st 07 - Mr. Might The God of Cows:

Geforce 7950!


01:29:49 Dec 21st 07 - Mr. Lelouch:

That may be out of his price range... XD


01:53:56 Dec 21st 07 - Sir Dead Oralive:

here following are the minimum requirements for a computer to run Age of Empire III:
Microsoft Windows XP or higher
A computer that has a 1.4 gigahertz (GHz) processor or higher
256 megabytes (MB) of system RAM
A hard disk that has at least 2 gigabytes (GB) of available space
A 32x speed CD drive
A 64 MB video card that supports Hardware Transform and Lighting
An audio card and speakers or headphones
A Microsoft mouse or a compatible pointing device
A 56.6 kilobytes per second (KBps) or faster Internet connection for online play
DirectX 9.0c or higher
Note These are the minimum system requirements that a computer must have to run Age of Empire III. You may experience increased performance on computers that exceed these requirements.


For those who want to know the minimul requirements to help out better that dont have the game.


02:06:13 Dec 21st 07 - Mr. Xiax:

I have the game but I still don't know the minimum requirements... All I know is that AoE III lags like crazy on the computer I used to have.


04:47:41 Dec 21st 07 - Mr. Killstone The Exploiter:

ha even with running vista my com could handle AoE III easily! and ya XP is much better than Vista imo


06:43:23 Dec 21st 07 - Mr. Haywood Jablowme:

i would recommend AMD instead of intel celeron


09:02:27 Dec 21st 07 - Sir Spoon:

I have overall good experience with Fujitsu. I'm using one right now.. Aslong as you have a good virusscanner and firewall (I advise ewido, it's not free, but it's the best one I ever had :)))), you can easily game 2 to 3 years with it.
Few crashes, there seem to be more crashes with Windows Media Player and Limewire running at the same time..
Err.. Good graphics etc.. For sound I suggest you buy speakers though.. =)


12:41:19 Dec 21st 07 - Mr. Ding:

bump, i would have fujitsu as i agree with spoon good graphics but not clear enough sound :( so yh get some ear/head phones or speakers.


13:09:48 Dec 21st 07 - Lord of The Morning:

Fujitsu Siemens FTW!!!
much better quality usually... make some research on www.newegg.com
