Steady 250 FPS?

Posted by Netherlands Ryan0593 on 2012-01-19 01:53:09
Hi guys,

I'm looking for new laptop. Divorced parents..

I was looking at this one, because there is a promotion at Dixons NL:

HP Dv6-6b14ed
Intel Core i7-2670QM (2.2GHz, 6MB L3)
(15.6 ") HD BrightView LED (1366 x 768)
8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3
640GB SATA 5400 rpm
AMD Radeon HD 6770M 2GB
Beats Audio

€849,-

1. Do you think this is a good offer?
2. Will i get 250 FPS steady?
3. Will i be able to play any game i want on high settings?

I searching all over the internet, but i just can't find the right one for me.

1. I travel daily to school ( Take my laptop to school every day )
2. Would like to play games on med/high settings, especially Call of duty 4 Promod
3. A max of €850,-

If this HP is not the right one for me, can someone suggest a better laptop for me?

Many thanks!

Shit screen. AVOID.

And unless you spend something like £1600+ you aren't going to be able to play any game you like on high. You know in-fact i'd expect you'd need £2000+ to do this.

Well it sucks ass. The pixel density will be poor, so it will have bad colour and contrast.

okok, because i use a 18.4 inch laptop atm. I get 150-250 fps with these specs:

Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P8700 @ 2.53GHz
4GB Ram
GeForce 9100M G
1280x720 Resolution @ Call of duty

I would say no. The screen sucks ass. HP is also a bad choice. They come bundled with a shit load of software that bogs it down and makes it run very slow. Also if it has touch sensitive buttons like most of the HP's you can't uninstall that useless software as it's needed for those buttons.

You know what i can't even be bothered to offer my help anymore as you have no fucking idea about what you're looking at. Do some research yourself.

seriously if you want a decent "gaming" laptop youre looking at about €1200 + an ssd
something like a GT683DX would be perfect, GT683 is closer to your budget

why do you need a laptop in the first place?

He wants it for other games too. And he wants to run them on high settings. With his current budget he has no chance in hell unless he dip's into the second hand market

It was just a question if that's possible to.

The most important game is Call of Duty 4. But some people say yess u will get 250 and you say no..

Why?

How am i being a dick you fucked up junk monkey?

I've given him advice on other threads too, but instead of doing simple research he's expecting to be spoon fed information. There are way too many people like this on this forum. Google has many more sources for information than I do, so it's logical to check that first.

250 ez since CPU is very good and 850e isnt bad for that laptop. Should run BF3 with med settings and 1280x720 pretty easily maby even with high

What do you guys think of this one:

Dell XPS 15 (n00x5m11)

2nd i7-2670QM 2.20GHZ with turbo boost to 3.10 GHZ
8GB RAM
750GB ( 7200 RPM )
Nvidia GT 540M 2 GB
40 cm(15.6") HD WLED TL (1366x768) 720p

€779,-

250 Steady @ Cod4 Promod?

XPS is fucking sick. You would probably get 250 on that with maybe 1024 x768. I get 250 on 800x600 everything low with my i5 and 520m or some shit nvidia. But its not that stable. I mean it HAS to drop in smoke and on backlot, but on other maps its really great and i dont even notice the drops. Its just the screen on that laptop thats shit. Maybe 15.6 is a bit too small for games? I bought myself a 17 inch crt so i hook it up whenever i play cod because the laptop screen is 60hz max and it just always feels like you died from 1 bullet.

And btw laptops just arent meant for games and ur gna have a different experience comparing to desktop no matter what. So you cant rly expect from a laptop to play on HD full detail....

540M is a poor card. Look for a 555M or above.

It will run COD4 at 125 most likely, but 250 is pushing it.

For a laptop its great... I can run all the new games tho not on 1920x1080 but its enough

Every game will run on it yes. But he won't be able to ramp up the settings. Personally i'd go for a slightly less powerful CPU and better GPU. However they aren't super easy to find. I know some companies can custom make you one to your specs. I'll have a wee look around and see what i can find for a competitive price.

If you could possibly up your budget a little you'll find something alot better
