New laptop advice please

Hi all

I know this has been covered before but I am getting a new laptop and want to make sure I can run FM09 and then FM10 very fast with as many leagues as poss.

I was thinking of getting one from DELL with the following specs:

Intel® Core™ 2 Duo P8600(2.40Ghz, 1066MHz, 3MB)

1GB ATI® Radeon™ HD 4670 graphics card

4096MB 1067MHz Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM [2x2048]

500GB (7,200rpm) Free Fall Sensor Hard Drive

Is this going to be any good (I have £900 to spend and it has to be a laptop).

Any advice would be much appreciate

Thanks

Its not a quad core but other than that the specifications look ok to me. Its not gonna break any speed records but you cant expect too much from a laptop.

I think it will be good enough. I have just spent £600 on

Base

Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T6500 (2.1GHz, 800MHz, 2MB)

Memory

4096MB 800MHz Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM [2x2048]

Video Card

512MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD4330

Hard Drive

500GB (5400RPM) Serial ATA Hard Drive

Microsoft Operating System

Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium SP1 (64 BIT)

And it works a treat with FM'09

I'm expecting with my upgrade to windows 7 which should free up my memory usuage even more I'll be singing all the way

It will run at a decent speed.

Are there any better laptops around for £900 mark?

Please let me know if Im not getting the best for my money?!

Thanks

Does it have to be a laptop?

yeah needs to be a laptop really!

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP IF THAT ONE I HAVE SHOWN IS NO GOOD!

Only just over a month to get the decision right!!

Let me ask you what sort of games do you play?

Might as well expand on this a little.

If you're not into graphically intense games/work then you probably can afford getting a weaker graphics card and upping the processor speed.

Right now most of your money is probably going into the DD3 ram and the graphics card.

If you have the cash now, surely you would be better off keeping it and waiting until the demo is released for FM10 so you can see the actual specs required. That way you can buy accordingly and not have a surprise put on you in case of the system requirements, although it is widely tipped to not be too different from 09.

Not too bad really. You'd easily be able to run 6 countries (20 odd leagues) on a large database with that spec. I take it that it will have to be a laptop? For £900 you really could buy a monster desktop PC that would easily be twice as powerful as the specs you've posted.
