Well I already have the acer I bought it because I don't have a pc. So you think I would be better off buying a pc, I only need it for gaming think I could get a good one for under $1,000?
Hey guys I have been a member since just before new years if I am not mistaken, and this happens to be the first topic I have started heh. I just recently decided I would upgrade my laptop over getting a new pc ($$$) or frequenting gaming internet cafes to get my D3 fix. There is a local computer store that sells parts cheap and I will be asking them for advice on parts (though I am skeptical because you never ask a barber if you need a haircut) & instalation.
My laptop is a Acer Aspire One. It works pretty good except that I have three issues with it.
- When I downloaded the open beta it said my video card was not up to date or w.e, and when I tried to play it was so choppy that it was completely unplayable. What is a good graphics card for under $200? Also would I be able to play max graphic settings with this card?
- The modem/router in my home is in my cousins rooms slightly off being above my room. When I am connected the bandwith is quite good, but I often get dropped for a minute or so every so often, and this is fine when Im on espn, youtube, or dfans, but absolutely unacceptable in an online all the time game like D3. What can I buy to ensure I get a good hold of that wireless internet? I would rather buy a specific peice for my laptop than a powerful router.
- I am pretty sure I have some mal ware, spy ware, or minor viruses that make my laptop run at less than 100%. How much should someone pay to have their computer rebooted, and have the microsoft word and google chrome installed which is all I use.
I would not mind paying over $250-$500 for this I would like to walk into the store today or 2moro with some basic knowledge. I would appreciate any help thanks.
