Hey guys,
I've been looking for a lappy which can run a decent gaming performance(I don't expect it to run Crysis, but it should run Cod 5 at atleast the same speed as my current 512 Ram, 7600GT, p4 desktop).
After a little bit of consideration, I came up with the Dell XPS M1530,
with the following config, cost was 62.9k exclusive of tax.. Is this a good buy? is this Proc t8300 much better than the default t8100(2.1 Ghz,3MB Cache,800 MHz FSB)
