I just did a 3dmark03 on my system... 3570 :(


I used to have up to date hardware, and overclock all the time. Now Im married and out of college and I am responsible with my money :(


That being said, i just realized for the games I have been playing, I might be able to get a fairly decent laptop around the same performance level as my desktop for a decent price now = mobile gaming = good since I will be spending half the week out of the house and at a friends house between 12hr shifts... any suggestions? Im trying to do a search online for 4k+ 3dmark lappies but i sux @ the g00glz

Perhaps look into the Dell XPS Gen 2 notebooks. They have similar performance to Alienware notebooks, etc. but cost less.

maybe just skip the laptop all together and save the money, and soon you won't need the 12-hour shifts anymore.
