Looking to buy a notebook and laptop not much of a gamer anymore(but i do play Sims Series!) but i will need a good graphics card for my 3D work i do (i have 3DS Max, C4D, and zbrush piracy ftw!) also to run emulators like (ps2/xbox) so whats a good laptop out there with a decent price, graphics card and memory?
lmao there's nothing to say to this...damn i guess imma jus search for it tried taking the easy way out and hope someone would post a link to a lovely product!
apple is actually really good but my brother bought a asus laptop and he games on it so if you want to check that out, im sure youd be able to run your programs flawlessly!
thats going to be a bit tougher, you can find a "studio" notebook under a brand and should be able to support your programs
Well if your tight on money and want a nice one that does what u need. try toshiba its what i have with windows 7 and its gr8. If u have money to spend get a mac. those things r nice as hell
Dell Inspiron 15R Powerful performance and good battery life for under $500. Link is to the CNET review.
Macs are also are much less prone to getting viruses; which will save you time and frustration in the long run. Though i also have a PC, but i prefer my mac much more for those reasons and they jus have a better workflow for a graphic/web designer like myself. For gaming though, my PC all the way, just make sure you have anti-virus software installed soon once you get a PC. It comes down to budget, and before i had the money to get a mac i was on a PC.
Macs are terribly overpriced. You can get the same virus-free, unix-based performance from any free Linux distro (Ubuntu is a popular, easy-to-use one), dual-boot with Windows on a PC and avoid paying Apple's ridiculous price tags while retaining the ability to go back to Windows when necessary.
lol. Mac's aren't exactly over-priced. While they may be more expensive if you directly compare specs, but with a Mac you get a lot of things other laptops don't. Unparalleled build quality (no other laptop has anything that compares in quality to the MBP unibody), an excellent 8bit TFT screen (which for graphic design or just pure viewing pleasure, is amazing), plus excellent speakers, and the Multi-touch Pad (which once you get the hang of is an enormous improvement over typical touch-pads). Also Macs can run Windows as well as Windows PCs, and Linux, and OSX. They're the only laptops that natively run all three, and OSX is enormously better than Linux.
I'd love to hear your reasons for it being 'enormously' better than Linux. Maybe Ubuntu specifically, but that's only recommended for Linux newbies anyway. Also, excellent speakers? In their laptops? I've heard those speakers; your definition of excellent must be completely different from mine. Maybe by laptop-speaker-standards, but they're all terrible anyway.
