advice - Laptop for VSK

Ask the ITBYC panel

Postby tornado1 » 04 Sep 2005 00:22

Hi - 2nd part of my seeking your advice.
Is there a laptop out there that will do a very good job with graphics and playability of VSK?

I am thinking about the 8.6 pound Dell Inspiron XPS Gen 2 laptop.
with: Intel® Pentium® M Processor 770 (2.13GHz, 2MB Cache, 533MHz FSB)
64 KB L1 cache
Intel® 915PM Chipset

Card: 256MB NVIDIA® GeForceTM Go 6800 ULTRA with PCI Express x16 interface video card

17" Wide-Aspect UltraSharpTM TFT Active Matrix WUXGA (1920x1200) display

Would it accept a joy stick etc?

Other brands that will work better? ( Can any Toshiba be configured to run VSK well.? )

Your comments and advice appreciated.

I ran VSK3 on the work Toshiba (TE2100) with x86 Family Intel processor at 1.7GHz, 512MB memory, and NVIDIA GeForce4 420 Go (Toshiba) display adapter.

I say "ran" as in past-tense, as I must have changed a setting somewhere on the machine or in the game options that totally lagged the refresh (greater than a second). At the time, I had also only been running the game in solo mode, so not sure how it would have handled online play.
