So, I recently spent 1600 on a new asus G51Vx-A1, don't get me wrong, the laptop is great, but i'm not looking to spend too much on my next game. I started playing age of conan last december, and that will be my main game, but i'm looking for a shooter to play on the side. I have played halo since release, but during the summer, i sold my xbox to my friend because i found that i never was in the mood to play, and halo was the only game that i enjoyed on the xbox. So, with money being tight and all, i wanted to either get the new cod for my laptop, or buy a new xbox so that i can play my halo. All of my friends irl play halo daily, and it would be fun to go back to raping in dbls and such, but the new cod does look sick, and the gameplay will be awesome on the pc. So, any advice? It basically comes down to which is more fun and playable for a long time (I never played cod, but was always against it because..well.. i was a halo fanboy) SO i'm deciding to possibly give it a chance

I understand that the more expensive ones have a faster processor, wondering which would run age of conan/CoD/ other games at high graphics and with high fps. And also how the $999 computer would handle such games, even with the slower processor. Also, if you could give me your opinion on the sellers, that would be great, thanks. I am planning on using square trade for the ebay items

Really? i've heard the 240M out peforms the 9800.. hmm. something to think about
Deciding between two laptops with similar other features, just the vid card is what i'm deciding on. I will be using this laptop mostly for gaming, and i'm wondering which would offer a higher resolution and higher performance. Thanks
so the 9800M is better for gaming? hmm..
#2... Intel Core 2 Duo P8700 (2.53GHz/3MB L2 Cache)/4GB DDR2 SDRAM/500GB 5400 RPM SATA Hard Drive/1GB NVIDIA GeForce 130M GT.

So, wondering how the video cards compare on the two machines. Also, if someone could recommend somewhere i could get a laptop for around $1300-1400 with the ability of running age of conan fluidly that would be greatly appreciated
trying to keep it under $100, I've heard razer is good, but I want to get some opinions before I buy.
Just put a link in, or give a website
