Hi there. I haven't actually owned a computer since my Atari 600/130XE, but am looking to get a laptop-one that will handle SHV at full-detail, or close-to, at say...25-30fps.I've been console only since then [reliability, and lack of games, understand...Atari pretty much had all the problems that plague/d PC AND Mac users....b)
Anywho... been reading up a bit, and am wondering: would an intel i3-350m [mobile] be sufficient, spending the extra cash [over say, getting an i5] on a better graphics card, say, 1GB [integrated]....?? Or even better? Plus 4MB ram.
I won't have broadband initially, probably; so won't be able to actually play the game...I just want to know I have a computer that can handle it. I can wait.
In the meanwhile...I'd have SH3 and 4 to play for the first time....;0)
A little side-question on those [as I'm guessing everyone's played them]; do you start with the campaign first [just with anti-bug mods installed]...and then apply, say; Trigger Maru and Real Fleetboat [not together, I know], in order to gain more replayability? Or do you go straight for a super-mod...? Or the game patched, plus just a few 'regular' mods, i.e; Real Breathing Ocean [or somesuch]??
Only if it's no trouble;0)
Z.

P.s; I just like him, cause he's a pirate...b
