New Laptop!

[Wade777]

Well... this isn't exactly a 'System Build,' but it is a new computer nonetheless.  I ordered it straight from dell with a 15% discount through the University of Texas.  The stats are as follows:
P4 3.0 Ghz (HT)
1 Gig of ram (dunno speed.. have to check)
Radeon 7000 ( I think?!?) 128mb
60 Gig HDD @ 7200 RPMs
Windows XP Professional
etc...

Even though I dont know exact specs, it really really flies on all of my games!

If it's an Inspiron 5150, which is what it sounds like, keep the heatsink over the CPU clean - these systems overheat readily if they get dusty.

thanks for the advice,
I will be sure to do that (I have heard about overheating problems with many of the P4 HT notebooks (not M))
