guy wants to trade me a comp for my laptop i have a 1,4ghz tbird and his comp is a amd 64 2600 what kind of speed diff are we lookin at.
This is a joke right? Qute a big speed difference! The Amd 64 2600 (I didnt know they made a 2600?) will kick the living crap out of the tbird. Also, this is the wrong place for this methinks!
well it says its 1.67ghz so iwasnt sure.....i got out of computers right around the time the athalon2000xp came out soo im behind the times
Get CPU-Z on them and compare the two specs. Make sure theres nothing dodgy going on too, I've heared of people swapping laptops for pc's only to find theres something wrong with the pc, like the hdd's nearly dead, or it randomly crashes (usually PSU/RAM issue).
Definetly test it out, What kind of video card and memory? run 3Dmark or something. You never know, maybe something might not be working with his PC.
This is what we are trading my laptop ya that tbird i was talking about is my desktop Dell Inspiron 2650 Intel Pentium 4 1.7ghz 14.1in LCD Screen 256mb Ram PC2100 DDR NVidia GeForce2 GO 16mb 30gig HDD DVD/CD-RW Combo Drive 3 1/2 Floppy Linksys WPC54G 54mb WIFI Card Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse Charger Bag Network Cable Im asking 600 but what I get is what I get for his have amd 64 system id trade you. just the tower for your laptop str8 up amd 64 2600+ asus mobo 512 ddr 400 case with lights and 7 fans .. l33t 160GB HD 7200 RPM WD GF4 Video Dual layer DVD burner. how does that sound
your laptop will probably provide you better use. Why do you think he would up and wanna trade. You can build something much better for the cost of that laptop. I used to have one like it and got rid of it for a desktop. I wish i woulda kept it now. Me personally id keep the laptopfor the value of the wireless.
well i never use the laptop and i find it slower than my 1.4 desktop and it has no battery life at all. but i alos have a guy wanna trade me a dual 2.6 xeon serevr only downfall is no agp and 2 pci slots and 2 pci-x slots i need 1 for sound and one for wirless so i i need another for a pci gfx card
You can build similar system like that for: Mobo $100 CPU $150 Case $80 Video Card $60 Ram $45 Burner $40 HDD $80 (can get for 250/300Gigs for 130-150$ -80$ rebates if you care) So the PC is actually worth about $600 but without screen and used. Now try to find me a laptop (from reliable place, not ebay) with similar specs for $600
