Might be better finding a cheaper replacement card, you may lose a lot of cash to sell it.
I have a pc you may borrow for lan if you have a monitor, no idea if it will run the games ure into but your welcome to rey, its got an ATO x800 and an amd 2.1 i think. Plays BF2 ok but oly has 1 gig ram.
Cheers for the offer Daz, tbh iv been looking into those reccomendations for Ryans next pc and got me thinking i might be able to sort a decent rig out for sub 500 but still early days ill get summet sorted and keep looking :) I WILL PWN YOU IN TEH FACE!
Cheers Rich, done abit of Diagnostics and its the memory on the gfx chip thats screwed alough laptops 3 nd 1/2 years old not supprising, a new gfx card is 262quid atm cheapest brand new uk one iv found, v v v steep as paid 300 for lappy in 1st place, theres a guy that claims he can reapair mine for 100 quid by replacing the memory chips on the card, but tbh dont trust that, i reli like this laptop but have a feeling it will be finding its way onto ebay in the coming weeks unless i can sort a cheaper fix I WILL PWN YOU IN TEH FACE!
its fine for that rob everything else is top notch, not sure on price would have to compare on ebay, or such like, ill look into later on, or pm an offer ;) I WILL PWN YOU IN TEH FACE!
oreet guys, after much deliberation, and consideration, im thinking of replacing the gfx card for an upgrade to the 7950 gtx 512mb, this laptop just seems to suit me abit more than the old desktop did, and playing games less now would be better to focus my cash into savings for a house, so ill give it a week or 2 then get a card ordered :) cheers anyway I WILL PWN YOU IN TEH FACE!
