sean_lufc Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Hey, Im looking to get a laptop and am willing to spend 800 pounds max. on one. It will be mainly for FM usage so im looking for a laptop capable of running a good amount of leagues at a good speed, it will also be used for internet and itunes. But mainly im using it for FM, to anyone that plays FM on laptop how many leagues can yours handle and what else do you run on your laptop? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chosen One Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I have Acer: Intel® Core 2 Dou 1.66 GHz 1 GB RAM I am not sure the recommended leagues for my laptop but I am currentling playing save with Medium DB 44 Countries (7 playable... the rest only can view). I have to say after the first season it got little slower but I think it is not that slow despite so many leagues loaded. It took me about 20-25 minutes to holiday A month and few days. I am not sure if thats slow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neji Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 You don't need to spend anywhere near 800 if it's just for FM. Look for something with a Dual Core processor (2Ghz+) and 2GB of RAM, that ought to do if its just for FM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gianps Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 i suggest you "dell" and "zepto" notebooks. zepto's ones can come out without an operative system preinstalled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

D3AN Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 http://www.apple.com/uk/macbook/"Once you turn Mac you never turn back"... I wouldn't buy a Mac just for playing FM. I would recommend Dell tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neji Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 If you're buying to game, DO NOT buy a latop. Laptops aren't made for gaming without spending a fortune on them. Id suggest building your own PC, its very cheap and easy to do if you do some research. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pelicanstuff Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 The Dell Vostro range is ugly but extremely good value. For £500-600 or so, you would be able to get an extremely mean machine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
twattyatkins Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 My Sony Vaio runs FM very well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelicanstuff Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Problem with vaios is that they cost the earth for what they are. Nice looking and quite well-built, but for the price, they run like an old bus through treacle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
metal_guitarist Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 If you can afford it, get a custom built with 4GB of RAM, Vista 64Bit, Quad-core processor and a Nvidia Geforce 8800 graphics card or higher. Google 'Dunedin Computers', a grood website you can pick up one like that for around £500. Great site for custom builds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
