Looking through Newegg I'm not sure which Core 2 Duo to get. Now if I had money to burn I'd get this: Intel Core 2 Extreme X6800 Conroe 2.93GHz 4M sharing L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor but seeing that it's $999.00 and that I don't have money to burn. I don't think so. So what would you...

That's the thing. I'm not just looking for a desktop replacement. I have a desktop and it suites me fine. I play WoW on it just fine with no real trouble at all (except for those that WoW creates themselves). I needed a laptop that I can use to work on as well. One with a good battery life. Dell...

Where did you order this? I looked on the Dell site and all I saw were systems $1600 or greater.

I have a hard choice to make. I'm buying a new laptop and I've never owned one before. I have been looking at two companies. The first is Alienware, I've been eyeing their Area-51 m5700. Everything is good on it with the exception of price. The configuration I'd like runs about $2,488.00. The...

Thanks for the answers guys. Much appreciated. So what would a Intel® Pentium® M 760 2.0GHz 2MB L2 Cache 533MHz FSB (taken from the alienware site for the Area 51 m5700) be? Now having HT technology isn't that important to me. If I have done without it since it came out, I think I can do...

I searched around [H]ard|OCP's reviews for laptops since I'm ready to buy one. This would be the first laptop I've ever owned and I'm looking for a good stable 17" or better laptop that can handle games well (especially WOW). I looked at the review for the ABS G4 Mayhem and saw on the ABS...

Ok, I've thought about building a new rig that will last me more than a few years so I've been thinking of putting some serious money in to a serious rig. However since I've always used Intel and been a staunch (read facist) supporter of them I've turned my nose up on AMD processors. Recent chip...
