slipknot67 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Ram and Hard drive are identical to mine and it has a better graphics card than my pc (which runs 3d fine). That machine should handle anything FM12 can throw at it easily as far as I can tell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakers Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 The spec is fine but..is there a particular reason that you're getting an all-in-one PC? Because there are a lot of drawbacks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dal20 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 Thanks for the info guys. Yes don't really have the room for a desktop pc and a laptop with this spec would cost around £850 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welshace Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 £850? thats a lie.. you can get a much better laptop than that for £500 and easily get one with same spec for around the same price.. http://search.laptopsdirect.co.uk/laptops_between_400_and_500_pounds/page.asp the first page i found Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of those laptops have that. He's right in saying a laptop with a full HD screen will be expensive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's right in saying a laptop with a full HD screen will be expensive. I hope you realize that you can get a Laptop AND a Monitor for the 850 so you can benefit from both (if Screen size is essential). I didn't get what you budget is after all? 500?

I didn't get what you budget is after all? 500? Firstly, I'm not the OP, so I don't have a budget. Secondly - why on earth would you buy a laptop and a monitor? You either need portability or you don't. If you're going to have it connected to a screen all the time then you would save yourself a bunch of money and just buy a desktop. You don't really want to be spending a lot of time fiddling about with extended displays and the drawbacks they have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't really want to be spending a lot of time fiddling about with extended displays and the drawbacks they have. Put a line between the 2 questions, obviously it wasn't for you. Because when you are at home you have 2 screens and plenty of space for whatever you want. When you go somewhere (or even to another room) you have a laptop. He is not going to be the first one to do this, trust me. Can you please enlighten me about these drawbacks - I've been extending on two different laptops, different brands and generations on an external monitor with no effort at all.

Wakers Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 That boggles me. The money that's been wasted by doing that is..anyway. Driver software tends to be buggy when dealing with extended displays because not many people use it. It can (only can) cause problems with games or full screen applications.

It can (only can) cause problems with games or full screen applications. It's not a waste of money if you need a laptop to move around. I personally have a laptop as I do move around and a TV/Monitor that I use both as TV and as an extended screen, depending on what I need. Personally, I can't find a difference between buy a desktop with a monitor + a TV and laptop with monitor/TV - the money would be similar but you can move one of them around and the other you can't. It's possible to hae some driver issues I guess, I've not had any problems so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dal20 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 I only paid 335 and this has full hd 23 inch screen and built in freeveiw and a blue-ray built in I thought this was a great deal. You never get as good of a deal on a laptop as everyone wants the laptops as you can take them anywhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexyfoot Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 If you have paid for it, what is this thread about? Out of curiosity, did you buy it new or used as it seems cheap for the specs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dal20 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 My friend brought it brand new 2 months ago but has just been given a company laptop so he no longer needs it. As the thread says I only asked if the pc was good enough to run fm12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
