Best AMD-based laptop for gaming?

What's funny is that you think that would make any difference, granted the graphics capability of the thing compared to an ATI/AMD 5650 or 6550. At any rate, sorry for stepping into what's cleary an Intel fanboi snakepit. Thanks to ikachu, who is the *only* person who actually said anything...

Best AMD-based laptop for gaming?

...what? You're comparing a 12.5" netbook with, I presume, Intel integrated graphices to a 17.3" laptop with an ATI 5650? Are you under the impression that such a comparison makes any sense? The reason you tried to change this to an ultraportable discussion is...? And at any rate, I also...

Best AMD-based laptop for gaming?

Uh, not playing Crysis or Shogun is a point against me? Sorry for not playing whatever games the cool kids are playing at the moment... Pretty much WoW and similar stuff. DDO, maybe Rift. That's about it. I don't really know anyone that has any interest in FPSs. I used to be really into...

Best AMD-based laptop for gaming?

...you have "no idea" about how Intel was recently forced to cough up billions of dollars because they were finally convicted of abusing their monopoly position in the 90s and 00s by blackmailing OEMs into not buying AMD CPUs? That is pretty much unbelievable. There's no way you could be a fan...

Interesting. A 6570 mobile part would be quite tasty. Reckon I'll wait a few weeks and see what happens...

Best AMD-based laptop for gaming?

But supporting a convicted criminal recently fined to the tune of billions of dollars because they don't think they have to abide by the law is a good idea? Right. And for what it's worth, I'm looking for a new laptop for a friend and asking this advice - I currently have the next-step...

Need help finding AMD gaming laptop

...looking for a new gaming laptop. Primary concerns are at least a 17" screen, AMD processor, and solid graphics capability. Have an MSI GT735, which is great, but may be handing it down to my wife - so I'd need a new one. MSI seems to not be making AMD-based gaming laptops anymore...and I...

AMD Phenom X3 710 --> X4

...I just tried enabling ACC (auto) on my new Asus 790/750 mobo with a Phenom II 720 - wouldn't POST. :( ...I believe it was a 0907 though. Maybe they just don't do the trick.

Sims 3 hits the shelves in early June

...according to FudZilla, EA will be releasing Sims 3 in early June. Any bets as to whether or not it'll be infected to the brim with punish-the-legal-consumer DRM? I will categorically NOT be buying Sims 3 (and Sims/Sims 2 is one of my most favorite games ever) if it has any DRM even...
