You! Off my planet.
Ok, before everyone starts saying that laptops aren't good gamers and that they can act as personal heaters, I've already considered both those parts
But anyway, what I'm wondering is how would this laptop handle Trainz 12? I haven't purchased the laptop yet, but it would be great to know ahead of time.
Specs:
Intel Quad Core i7-2720QM (2.2 GHz base, 3.3 GHz max Turbo Boost)
8 GB DDR3
1.5 TB (2 750 GB, 7200 RPM hard drives in RAID 0)
AMD Radeon HD 6770M graphics w/2 GB GDDR5
1920 x 1080 17" screen
All for $1,500 (best all-around specs I could find for that price)
It's not a terrible loss if I have to turn off AA/AF or bump down the resolution/draw distance, but I just wanted to know how well I should expect it to play.
Oh, and BTW Trainz won't be the main focus for this laptop. I'll be using it mainly as a mobile workstation of sorts so that I can edit a lot of HD video when I'm not at home. Eventually it MIGHT turn into a desktop replacement, depending on how much I like it
Thoughts and suggestions welcome!
