New laptop (Maybe), need answers.

(1/6) > >>

Deathie:
For $250, I can snag myself a decent laptop.

Athlon 2x, 2.2GHZ
2GB DDR3 Ram
Radeon HD4250
(1366x768 screen for those who are curious).

Now, here's the thing, I need to decide to either get this laptop now, or keep saving up for a better one in the future.

I'll have the 250 by the end of this week, but I want to know if this one is worth jumping towards.

The Radeon 4250 seems great with most games, but I want to know if it'd last me for the next 2 years or so (still being able to play newer games).

I'm not a big whore when it comes to graphics, as long as it's playable at full resolution, I'm happy. (No AA/AF, Medium model and texture quality @ 20FPS is fine for me).


Opinions?

Depends... in long terms then you should save up. But in short terms, buy now. I would only buy one now if it was a DEFINITE need, such as school work etc... but I guess your looking for one for games. IMO, saving up will be more worthwhile.

I need one by the end of summer, not just for games.

I'm going to be doing a lot of multi-media work with MPT and Sony Vegas, but I need something that can handle rendering previews without lagging like a mofo :L

I just want to know if this will last me for the rest of high school is all.

Eh, you might wanna save up for a laptop with a faster processor, like a core i5 or a turion 64.

I'd say that computer sucks if you want a good video editing shit. Get one by the end of summer. You'll get more for less.
