(Disclosure: It's a MacBook Pro. I'm planning on waiting out for the 2012 revision of the MBPs though since there has been rumours of a hardware redesign. Personal reasons for the choice of the Mac OS, but would like to game as well.)
I was originally thinking about purchasing the individual parts and building a desktop for gaming and general computer uses, but because I live in different locations for the different parts of the year, I would have limited exposure to my desktop. I have decided instead, to purchase a laptop that has specs that could somewhat game.
Specs:
Processor: Intel i7 Quad Core 2.2Ghz (2720QM)
RAM: 4GB 1333MHz (Can self upgrade this later on to 2x 4GB)
Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 6750M with 1GB GDDR5
Hard Drive: 750GB 5400-rpm (May upgrade to 7200 rpm.)
Native Res: 1440 x 900
How are these specs? How would I perform in these games? (Set at max, preferably, at native resolution.)
Battlefield Bad Company 2
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
Crysis 2
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit
Games released in 2011/12
I have some hope for this laptop for gaming because I've heard that hardware reqs for games have been somewhat stagnant because of the consolelification of games. How would it perform?
