Asus Laptop
Here are the specs:
Processor: Core i7-720QM @ 1.6GHz (2.8GHz Turbo), 6MB Cache, 45W TDP [Source]
Memory: 6GB DDR3 1066MHz
Graphics Card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870 (1GB of GDDR5) (Default clock speeds are 700MHz/1000MHz
Storage: Two 500GB**(***) 7200RPM Seagate Momentus Drives (16MB Cache)
:\ Here's my dilemma...I bought this laptop about two years ago for gaming (17" screen). Some new games (specifically Witcher 2 among others), probably won't play well according to "Notebook/Laptop Reviews and News".
Two questions:
1. Is it possible to upgrade or have upgraded the vid card?
2. What would you suggest as a replacement at a decent price (around 1200.00 or less). Does not have to be a laptop, but I prefer one as this my dedicated gaming computer and I use it in the bedroom.
Thanks for the input.
