SH3 GWX 3.0 and my system

Greetings all,

I was just playing one of the Single Missions on GWX. I chose the Convoy HX 228 mission.

Had QUITE a lot of fun playing this one.. I sank 3 Modern tankers, and the escort carrier..

However, using my current machine, the game bogged down during the sinkings of the tankers, due to all the memory used up by the flame graphics.

I am in a position where I might have some "extra" cash to upgrade my laptop.

I am thinking of getting a new rig.

My current one that plays GWX fine with only a few exceptions has the following.

Windows Vista
Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T6400 @ 2.00 GHz and 4.00 GB RAM.

What do some of you experts recommend for me to get so my new computer doesn't bog down.

Unfortunately, I can't just plop down a bunch of cash on a "gaming machine" as I have a desktop that I purchased to do that and it has had major problems. As a matter of fact I can't play SH3 on my "gaming rig". I use my stock Laptop from Best Buy.

Thank you in advance
