gsp318 1 Posted July 9, 2013 I'm looking to purchase a new alien ware laptop...but before I spend that kind of money, are these specs good enough to play GTA IV with a lot of high poly mods? If not can you guys tell me where I could find a lap top that will?

Illusionyary 5778 Posted July 9, 2013 A GTX770? Are you kidding? That'll run fine. What processor does it have though? I would advise against buying Alienware, from what I've read they are heavily overpriced and are not particularly reliable either.

gsp318 1 Posted July 9, 2013 These processors are what I have to choose from...and they are over priced but what other laptops would be good enough to play with all these mods?

Illusionyary 5778 Posted July 9, 2013 I'm not spec savvy at all, especially not with laptops, but any of those processors and that graphics card should run fine. In-fact, that laptop puts my tower to shame. Hide Illusionyary's signature Hide all signatures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ineseri 5150 Posted July 9, 2013 In my opinon, don't but alienware. It comes filled with pre-installed crap and alienware has got some pretty bad reviews out there. But again, it's my opinion. I think the overall experience will be better on a tower, not a laptop :) Hide ineseri's signature Hide all signatures "Don't quote me on that" - ineseri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JokerMods 287 Posted July 9, 2013 I'd choose the i7-4930MX but it'll be about $4000, checked the website ^^ I'd say choose the best if you have the money, if not choose the second the 4800MQ :P JM 1 NokerJods reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Break 1007 Posted July 9, 2013 I've only heard of alien ware being the best from folks ive talked to. The persons you've talked to obviously have no clue. Any of those processors you have listed should do fine for gaming. Just make sure you get a quad core i7.

Iconography 1418 Posted July 9, 2013 I personally use an MSI GT70 0NE-452US but there are newer versions. There's no "best gaming laptop" out there, just personal choice. I would recommend looking at the MSI range of gaming laptops. Hide Iconography's signature Hide all signatures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gsp318 1 Posted July 9, 2013 I really suck at recognizing what specs I need lol...I just know what I have now isn't working enough. It works but it crashes when I use high poly mods.

CEO 417 Posted July 9, 2013 do keep in mind that alienware is "just" Dell, so I suggest you buy like a toshiba laptop with some good specs and they never let you down!

Piarulli246 596 Posted July 9, 2013 Dude those are great specs! Those are like my specs but I have a desktop and not a piece of crap Alienware. I know a lot of people that had an Alienware and they said they suck. I would get and Asus laptop with the same specs. That is my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
