cgonzalez Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 Ive found it for £499 from Tesco Online.... And £450 from PC World Business. I wont be running any other programs with FM09, will it run the 3D okay then? Without any major problems if just playing the game... And also, will the processor be okay to play FM09 as I know the game box says 2 GHz processor on Vista - and the laptop im considering is 1.8 GHz. I have also found another laptop, which obviously isnt as nice appearance wise, but is a bit better spec'd for the same price. Will there be much difference between the two? This is the link to the other one, which is an Acer Aspire 6530G: http://www.acerdirect.co.uk/Acer_Aspire_6930G_Laptop_LX.AUU0X.214/version.asp?PID= Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
