New computer question

Dan0859 · 12-27-06, 06:44 AM

I'm looking at buying a new computer (a notebook, by necessity), and found a couple refurbished ones at Dell. Both will obviously run the game, but I don't understand the difference in the video cards. Will there be any substantial difference between the two machines? Your comments and suggestions are appreciated. Specs are as follows:

1. Latitude - Intel Core 2 Duo – 2330, Windows XP Pro, 15.4 screen, 100 GB EIDE Hard Drive (7200 RPM), 2000 meg RAM, DVD/RW, 512MB NVIDIA Quadro NVS 120M TurboCache, Bluetooth Wireless Card;3945 802.11a/g Wireless Mini Card, $1809.

2. XPS - Intel Core Duo – 2200, Windows XP Home, 17 screen, 100 GB EIDE Hard Drive (7200 RPM), 2000 meg RAM, DVD/RW, 512MB NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GTX, Bluetooth Wireless Card;Intel Pro Wireless 3945, $2,149.00, XPS

Thanks,
Dan
