Hello People,

I am planning to buy a Laptop my basic needs are Internet Surfing, Play GAMES (though I am not hardcore into gaming I would occassionaly like to play some good 3D-Virtual reality games) and yes another big purpose of my laptop would be to watch movies. What do you guys think about these configuration.

Intel Core-2 Duo Processor T8100(2.10 GHz)

2GB DDR2 SDRAM

Chipset Mobile Intel-PM965 Express Chipset

Hard Disk Drive 200GB

NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GT notebook graphics processing unit(GPU) Dedicated Video Memory 128MB.

Please advise

Cheers !

config is decent but which model laptop are you thinking of. most of the HP Laptops you would find get heated quick. Unless you are thinking of a Business laptop. They are very good. Generally preferred are Sony or Dell laptops

For your priorities, I think it is better to buy a Desktop. Its will be much more cheaper and far more good deal to do.Laptop ties your hands and you are limeted in terms of speed and performance. You can upgrade ur desktop easily and its each and every part can be upgraded any time. It is advised only when you need it for bussiness purpose that too when you have to do a lot of travelling.

The amount you spend on Laptop you will get a very decent desktop fot that price.

You can ask anyone in this forum.
