Laptop for Phoenix

[Bigbellypopper]

Hi All

Please can anyone point me to a reasonable spec laptop that will run Phoenix at a decent frame rate with all or most of the graphic options enabled?

I know my way around desktop specifications, but don't have a clue whern it comes to laptops

i just recently got a Toshiba L350-20g from comet for £340 Toshiba - Satellite L350-20G - Product Specifications

Its a lovely machine, 17" truebright (gloss black) widescreen, runs phoenix at about 45-50 fps with the options all set at medium and the resolution at the max it allows for this screen. its a really nice machine to use, battery life is also pretty good. ive been on it today on and off for about 2 and a half hours (half hour or so of which was on phoenix)and its still saying ive got 26% left and about 40 mins of use.

I have a couple of Toshiba laptops, both the L300 satellite Pro. Fantastic machines, their tech support is one of the best as far as im concerned too (not that I have used them on the laptops).

This machine is a core 2 duo 2.6ghz, Intel chipset mobo and Nvidia 7950 graphics card, 2 GB ram.

I can run Phoenix at 1920X1200 with everything set to max quality and it is crystal clear and completely smooth.

whatever you get, stay away from Dell.
About two months ago I requested a spare graphics card for my €3000+, three-years old Dell XPS laptop. They were unable to provide a spare part. To add insult to injury, they proposed that I send in my old card and get a refurbished one, for a price that buys nowadays more than half of a better laptop.

I run phoenic on a Acer laptop with a 1,6ghz core2 duo, a 128mb Nvidia 7200GO graphics card and 1.5gb of ram.
I also run it at 1920x1200 but I have to turn some of the options down to make it run smoothly.

I would consider the above to be the bare minimum for running phoenix.

Anything with a core2 duo, 2gb of ram and dedicated 256mb grpics card will be ok.

I run mine of an old IBM Thinkpad T42 - works fine!
