That's just the model, which gives no indication as to what the components in that specific laptop are.

Frankly I'm surprised that the blasted thing could even play Dawn of War or Guild Wars.

A lot of newer games don't like alt-tabbing especially if they utilize multiple cores, basically the game locks your cores and if you try to alt tab its extremely sluggish. If you want to look anything up on the internet like stats or wiki you would have to exit the game. Also a lot of peoples second computers are laptops so they are mobile, I have a wireless router ( behind it in picture ) which enables me to take my laptop anywhere in the condo complex.

Ok so here's my rig finally, nothing special.

Desktop:

Side view:

Front view:

Top/Front View:

In the dark:

*AMD Athlon 64 6000+ w/ Thermaltake Mini Typhoon heatsink.

*320MB 8800GTS (Soon to be G92 512 GTS)

*Seagate 7200rpm 320gig Hard Drive

*ECS GeForce 7050M-M Motherboard (Crap I know)

*2GB of Kingston Hyper-X Gaming Ram.

*Antec 500w power supply

And a Lian Li PC-7B Plus II w/ black finish.

Gets the job done for me, I know the blue lights may be cheesy or whatever, but they were the only 3 speed ones (Change speeds with a switch!) that the store had, so I didn't hesitate.

I also seriously need a new desk, but I'm moving soon so that is all about to change.

We have almost the exact comp specs except the motherboard & power supply. Mine is Asus M2N-SLi deluxe and Thermaltake 700w. Oh, the case is different too lol. My case looks like a bimmer. I'll take a pic of it.

I have the same speakers are you. The bass rocks considering how much I paid for them (4 bucks because they were discontinued by Creative).

Look ma, no wires!

Well, I love my 2007 version Logitech G5, best mouse I've ever put my hand on.

Yeah but I never use that, I just leave it on medium and its perfect (after some system adjustments, didn't leave it at default).

Laptop: HP Pavilion dv9720us

specs:

Processor: AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-60 2.00 GHz
RAM: 1983 MB
Hard Drive: 160 GB
Video Card: nVivia GeForce Go 7150M (its integrated I know, but runs Guild Wars on high graphic settings just fine)
Operating System: Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit
Sound: Conexant High Definition SmartAudio 221

Nothing at all special...but its what fit into my price range, and it runs all my games just fine, and even on high graphic settings. So eventually I'll get a good gaming computer....eventually.

Edit: And to prove it runs GW just fine: (I kinda took the screenshot when the animated green bar wasn't up at the top but you can see that that's where my computer is on the scale.)

It looks nicely done though, was probably a pain in the butt to set up that stuff though, removing and dismembering all your parts.

So did you overclock massively since you got that now?

How are the temperatures compared to your other setup?

I'd love water cooling, but it'd have no use to me other than looking neat and keeping the PC cool when it's not really needed.
