im sick and tired of this. i just want a computer that plays games. just bought a new laptop a week or so ago and it doesnt play any of my games.

I got a 2.2ghz intel core 2 duo centrino, 2gb of ram, and its a dell inspiron 1520 with integrated 965gm graphics.

Is there any possible way at all to get this upgraded? I mean I just bougth this and Dell doesn't know squat.

hope someone can help me out , thanks.

Check with Dell...but I'm doubting you can add a graphics card to the laptop.

If you can bump the performance up enough, yes, it's worth it. Some chips you can overclock the hell out of...others you can't.

I'd take the 8800GTX...not the whole unit.

Hello,

Current Specs:
p4 2.66ghz
1024mb pc2700 ram
120gb hard drive
ati radeon 9800xt 256mb

I was thinking of upgrading to:
Penryn qx9550
x48 motherboard
2-4gb pc6400 ram
500gbx2 hard drives running in RAID 0
Nvidia 9800x2

The upcoming penryn and x48 motherboard seem to be pretty reassuring, but what's holding me back from beginning to purchase my parts is the geforce 9800. Apparently it isn't a new chip with new technology, but rather two 8800's combined on one card. Should I just purchase a single 8800gt and wait until the REAL next gen card comes out? Or just purchase the upcoming geforce 9800x2? Oh and what's everyone think of the Penryn 9550?

For the vid card part, I would go with an 8800 GT and wait for other new cards to come out. Not much is known about the overall performance of the 9800 and whether it will be worth it to pick it up.

Pretty sure. Unless you can hack it somehow I guess.

Just pop in the Windows disc, then boot from the CD. It will format the drive before installing a fresh version of Windows.

I believe you need to log into the router's admin page.
