So, I ordered my laptop. Here are the specs:
Gateway® P-172S FX Edition
Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor2 T5750 (2.00GHz, 667MHz, 2MB L2 cache)
3072MB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM (1-1024MB & 1-2048 MB module)
160GB 7200rpm Serial ATA hard drive w/ 8MB cache
NVIDIA® GeForce® 8800M GTS with 512MB of GDDR3 discrete video memory
The best part is, I got over 250$ off by talking to a rep.
If you want to buy a cheap (fairly) gaming laptop, buy the P-172S FX now!!! I think gateway is trying to get rid of them since they will be starting the P-173 FX line in a week or so. Just talk to a rep, and push, but gently.
Anywho, what do you guys think? I paid 1550 exactly, including my 3 year warranty, damage protection.
Also, will this play Crysis, and if so, what kind of settings (I dont plan on getting it, but it seems to be the benchmark for most pcs).
The computer will be arriving July 1st
