Is This Laptop Good?


Is This A Good Laptop? Like WIll It Be Fast? This Is My First And Im Gettin This Because I Want To Play Sims 2 (Not Including Expansions) And Watch Movies To. Would This Be Good For That?

BASE Intel庐 Celeron庐 Processor 550 (2.00 GHz, 533 MHz FSB, 1 MB L2-cache)

OPTICAL DRIVE Fixed Internal 8X DVD+/-RW Drive including Software edit
PRIMARY BATTERY Primary 6-cell Lithium-Ion Battery (56 WHr)

yes, it should sure serve your purpose alright

except that i see a gross mis-match !

you have opted for pretty strong graphics > nvidia 8600m gt
... nice
ram you could go up
but for heavens sake, improve upon your processor
your celeron is outright crap and it STANDS out as a SORE point ... any and any 'core 2 duo' processor should do just fine
(even the 1.4.ghz core 2 duo is heavenly in comparison)
and the reason i mention 'core 2 duo' is that i doubt if the amd turions are an option available with this build

another point worth noting is that a 6 cell battery for a 17" screen system is too small and battery backup times, as also overall longevity will be pretty poor
9 cell is called for, and sure you are aware that this laptop is primarily going to be sitting on your desk ... it is far from mobile & lugging it around .... ouch

The vid card is fine, but you probally need more ram and a dual core cpu to run vista well, sims 2 should run fine if that computer had xp.

Everything is OK, nVidia Graphics card, 120Gb SATA, 17" gr8 for gaming and movies, almost all laptops nowadays comes with 6 cell batteries, but your processor is my only concern, maybe you should get a laptop with the above spec and AMD Turion 64 processor or Intel Core Duo processor.

If you are going to want to run your system efficiently, then you really want to opt for a core 2 duo or AMD 64X2 processor. 2g of Ram is a MUST ... your video card is good , so don't worry about changing that up., your hard drive is not going to play all that big of a factor depending on how much you are going to be saving. Hard drives aren't bank breakers anyway so you could increase it for pretty cheap to get a better " bang for your buck " .The optical drive is fine and if you are going to have your system plugged in all the time then the 6 cell is ok, but if you are going to want to use it completely wireless, then go with the 9 cell cause it will dramatically shorten the time you can use it.
I personally have a similar system and LOVE the 17" screen, just keep in mind this is more of a desktop replacement, if you are going to be taking it a lot of places, go with a smaller screen.
Best of luck!
