My desktop sits on a desk in the bedroom corner as a backup in case my laptop lets me down. I love my desktop, even if I don't use it much, but I love the freedom of being able to use my laptop anywhere. I wouldn't part with either of them

I have a desktop and a laptop.

Desktop is an Aspire AX3810 which was a top-end PC a year ago when I bought it. I kinda want a new one though. I **** bricks when I can't run a game on full graphic settings now.

4GB RAM. 1TB hard drive. 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor.

Laptop is a Dell. 3GB RAM. 2.1Ghz Dual Core processor. 213GB hard drive. I can easily run games on the laptop - just not on high graphic settings. Been playing Civilisation V on there.

I know there's nothing wrong with a Dell. I own one. But saying your laptop is better BECAUSE it's a Dell, is a bit moronic. As I said, at least share the specs.

Nice sec. Stick a better CPU in and it'd run anything.

Ughh! What is Civ 5 like? I really wanna play it!!!

I would buy it but the desktop is too crappy to handle it and there is no set Mac release date. They just told us it will be released eventually.

4GB should be enough to run most things. If you upgrade what RAM would you go to?

It's alright.. if you like that sort thing. To be honest, strategic games like that are way too complicated for me, although they've made it a bit simpler I think. You can choose to micro-manage or let it handle it all for you which is better for noobs like myself. Only been playing for a few days. Will probably get into it the more I play.

At least 6gig.

I can run pretty much anything, there's just a few games that are a bit laggy on full settings which bug the hell out of me.

Ah cool. From the screenshots I've seen they seem to have really improved it. And dw micromanaging is waaaay to complicated for me as well. It seems to be a much better game anyways

I just hate that they take a while to port games to Mac. It sucks.

If you're only using 2 RAM sots you may as well upgrade to 8 GB.
