MMMmm upgrading!
 
Well I was going to get an xbox 360 for my gaming goodness, but since I am wayyy too lazy to wait in lines, I decided to upgrade my laptop.

I am getting the xps gen 2 with the following specs:

I am upgrading it right off the bat to the new 7800 gtx go. Once I get I plan on flashing the bios and overclocking it to 450 core and 1200 mem.....

So what do you guys think, will I be able to play ut 2k7 when it comes out?

I love laptops! I was going to get a nice gpu for my desktop since I have the 19 inch lcd ultra sharp in there but I love games on the go. :)

That can be interpreted in more ways than I am comfortable with.

This laptop *IS* the king of the gamers and continues to receive TOP ratings in all the PC mags. I know Alienware is prett good also, but has shit ass support/warranty/reputation compared to DELL.

I have the same one except I have these things:

2.26GHz CPU
256MB Gforce 7800 GTX
Spare Battery, cuz it DOES eat those when I fly on planes.

It smokes on FPS on Q3/UT/CS. It was a bit pricy, but it was well worth

Congrats...you will PWN soon!!!!

(PS: LMAO REVAN)

Kickass screen, although I'd like it more if it was 15" at the same resolution. My eyes can take it.

How much does that cost - jaysus :o

Kihon Kata 12-31-2005 06:05 PM

For my desktop, I have the XPS Gen 5 ;) Fully loaded 4 gigs also.

They really do make decent high end systems
