The CPU and Ram seem to be ok.
But the graphics card sucks hell!
Thats a very low end graphics card..
Also with the same specs, in PC it would cost the half of the price. Maybe not even.
But its your choice!

Actually, Im glad you brought that up.What is a good graphics card?


Re: Should I get a laptop or Xbox 360? - Turkey - 08-28-2007

Well for your system I would prefer to use
a Nvidia GeForce 7600gt, not gs :) around $70
or
an ATI X1600 around $80

If you have more budget
- ATI x1950Pro. around $200 (DX9)
- GeForce 8800gts 320MB around $300  _O_

you also could get the 8600GT for around $100 but its worse than a 7600gt, it just has the new DirectX10 feature.  :(

I hope I could help.  :)

I got a laptop for £700 which i use now and is fine on SA-MP, no need to spend $1500 imo

Jep indeed, SA-MP (Well, actually GTA:SA ofcourse  ;)) Runs pretty good on my old laptop with an ATI 7000 graphics cars _0- (@ 800x600)
