Dont bother with a celeron CPU, worst you can get. GO for intel centrino / dual core.

 

[Azura]

Don't think the CPU will be an issue with the RAM and the Graphics Card as I wont be running multiple processes.

I recently bought an XPS 1645 and had to send it back due to a throttling issue caused by the power adapter; it shipped with a 90W adapter when the laptop required around 140W to perform at 100%.

I see that this laptop has a single core processor unlike the 1645 but 65W may not be enough for all of the components to perform at 100% with the screen brightness at maximum etc.

I would recommend signing up here and reading other owners' experiences with the model before making a decision.

My girlfrend brought a laptop from dell too and she got a custom built Precision M4300 with 4GB RAM and big graphics card for her art work. They sent it with the wrong power adapter.

If its a power adapter I'll just complain like a ***** until they listen lol.

Better grahpics card/RAM than what im using , Zen2 is right tho id get an upgrade on the CPU. Even if you don't plan on using multi proccesses.

Awsome for the price, i might see about gettin a new card/ram now if thats the price they're going for.

 

[Azura]

Got the laptop and it is pretty amazing, looks good and runs like a charm.

 

[CraiG^]

Can I ask where you got it from?

 

[Azura]

Dell website, www.dell.co.uk

 

[Skyline]

Looks very nice for that price.

if i hadn't just lost my phone and had to fork out for a new one, I;d look at buying that!

 

[JealY]

It can be a high spec as it wants.

But it's still a laptop.

Thus, fails.

 

[Azura]

Doesn't fail my gf's laptop is better then most PC's.

My gf's laptop is 8gb RAM, 1GB ATI Card. Quad Xeon Core.

What can a PC do that a laptop cant?

 

[JealY]

Not give you nut cancer & game for prolonged periods of time without overheating and melting.

For starters...





I hate it when people say laptops compare to PCs.

 

[Azura]

Use a desk, I have my laptop on nearly all day and the temp doesnt go over 30. anyhting else?

I hate it when people say laptops dont compare to PCs.

 

[JealY]

Pfft, noobs these days...

 

[Zen2]

Lol all that crammed into a laptop? I find it hard to beleive sonny that g card would overheat in such small enclosed space within minutes of playing a half decent game with the lack of good cooling. I have never herd of a laptop with such specs tbh >.<

Pics?
Price?

 

[Azura]

My one I can show you my gf's one I cant obviously because I dont have it.
