FM on a laptop, what would you recommend ?

[Freeman21]

I'm thinking of getting a laptop for FM 2010, but I've never played any FM game on anything else than a desktop PCs (pretty decent ones). So, in order to get a smooth experience on playing 4 countries/10 leagues, large databases, what would you recommend ? Would a 4 GB RAM, dual core processor be ok? or i would need an i3/even more ?

I played 8 leagues, with England and Scotland in fuill, and with a maximum database and my dell inspiron ran it fine.

Does get a bit hot if I keep it on my lap for too long and can sometimes overheat, but thats just laptops in my experience....probably more due to the fact that I spilt a pint of water over the keyboard.

A dual core with 4gb ram would be fine. Just make sure that you have a 64bit operating system installed otherwise you wont have access to the full 4gb ram. One other ithing I would suggest is that you check that its got a dedicated graphics card (Nvidia or ATI) and not shared memory.
