is this a good deal for the money or is it too expensive and how is the videocard for playing games

good deal, a pm or turon or even a mobile athlon would be better, but that works, a dell I9300 would kill it in graphics, so u might wanna check that out with the $750 of or 35-40% off cuopons

that vid card may be a bit weak...but it depends on what type of games u will be playing. and the athlon processor is the better option for a gaming computer, but ijm not sure dell can put a athlon in for you, i think they are strictly intel. but otherwise, nice comp.

Yeah nice comp. Now how long does it take you to get the Dell compuns becasue ive applied to get some, but i was just wondering how long it takes to recieve them. Thanks

huh? most expire tomorrow but more will be up.



decent for mild to light gaming. basically a mobile 9600 with a pci interface.

Why is this a mild gaming machine? Is it becasue he has a not so desent video card? But if it is the video card could he get the video card updraded to a better one and could the processot still handle that size of video card?

thanks guys for all the help



and thomas go to techbargains.com and go to coupons and they have some there



and can you replace videocards in laptop computers or not

it really depends on wat type of gaming ur gonna be doin on a laptop, its hard to decide

well i will be mostly playing battlefield 2 on it

possibly if you order the part through HP.
