| 1123773 | 2010-08-02 20:56:00 | I helped a work colleague's laptop once. His more powerful Core 2 Duo broke. So we put the ram into his working Celeron and he's been happy since. He says everything just opens when you want to ... He had 256MB before and I put in 512MB from his broken laptop. He now has 700 odd. He doesn't play games, just casual stuff, facebook, youtube, dvds, msn messenger, skype, music etc ... I would just get a 512MB module or a 1GB module whatever ..... Perhaps all for $100 or not even that. |

| 1123774 | 2010-08-02 21:06:00 | *play videos *use messenger *multiple tabs web browsing ect *play music on a media player (the only time I wont have music playing is when I'm seriously concentrating on something I'm reading and trying to learn about) *be able to run a number of programs that I use for work and study *basically I don't want lag I want a computer that can handle just about anything I throw at it and still be able to do other things while I do it if that makes sense? liked the look for this one below: www.playtech.co.nz Playtech Matrix XT $1399.00 Processor Intel Core i5 750 2.66GHz (8MB Cache) Quad Core Operating System Genuine Windows® 7 Professional 64bit Memory 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3-1333 CL9 Dual Channel Hard Drive (OS Bootup) 500GB - SATA2 3Gb/s 16MB Cache HDD Motherboard Playtech Approved LGA 1156 Intel H55 Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce 210 512MB DDR2 HDMI / DX10.1 Audio High-Definition 7.1 Performance Audio Optical Drive 1 22X CD/DVD burner (DVD+/-RW) w/Dual Layer Write Capability Power Supply Playtech Approved 600w Power Supply Case Antec Three Hundred Black ATX Case System Recovery With that said if I plan on doing a lot of video editing mainly my own home made movies and stuff is the graphics card very important or will the one in the XT suffice? You need a good CPU for video editing, the card is less importnat. SO that should do you. |
