I am buying an used laptop to hopefully save some money and the ones I currently are looking at is:
Toshiba Qosmio X500-140 - GeForce GTS360M - Intel Core I7 - 740QM - 4 GB RAM
Asus G55VW - GeForce GTX660 2GB - Intel Core i7-3610QM - 12 GB RAM
MSI GE70 - GeForce GTX850M 2GB - Intel Core i5-4200H - 8GB RAM OR MSI GE70 ONC - GeForce GTX660M - Intel i5 3210M - 8GB RAM
(all windows 7 64)
I will also use this laptop as a HTPC, so it will be connected to a 1080p tv most of the time to watch movies and sometimes play games. Witch is one of the reasons to why I do not feel the need to buy a brand new laptop for 70% movie /series and just 30 % games. So I hope the fans won't be that loud when watching movies / tv series.
I must say that I have never tried the Dolphin emulator before because my current laptop is not powerfull enough.
I want the laptop to be able to run full-speed and 1080p, games like zelda mario and SSB. And if possible more demanding games on PCSX2 and also Wii games too.
Do I have to get a newer one or would one of these be good enough, as I might be able to save a few hundred dollars on a older laptop.
Any tips are welcome and much appreciated
Thank you all for taking time to read my and all the other posts :D
fyi, posting this before work, so I wont be able to respond for some time so I hope I provided enough info.
