Hello EVE'ers!
My old trustly Acer Aspire 5633WLMi is no longer able to play eve very well, so I've been looking at a laptop with these specs, what I esepcially am unsure if good enough, is the gfx card.
"Intel Core i7-2630QM Processor 2,0 GHz 4 GB DDR3 ram 1333 MHz Hybrid HDD 4GB SSD/500 GB HDD 7200 rpm. Super Multi DVD-Burner 15,6" LED Glare screen 1366*768 GeForce GTX460M Graphics 1,5GB GDDR5 WLAN 802.11b/g/n, LAN 10/100/1000 Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, 1*USB 3.0, 3*USB 2.0 2 Mpix Webcam, HDMI, Creative Audigy HD Backgroundlit keyboard, 8 Cells battery Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit" One image per sig and please be EVE related.

In-space, max graphic detail, single client, at that resolution, great. Possibly 2 clients at decent FPS. CQ, single client, same conditions, kinda' not very ok. _

you SHOULDNT need a complete overkill one but ccp just want money.
atm CCP's half assed expansion cant handle 2 clients running at once, it will "eventually"
When this eventually happens, months after incarna.....your GTX460 will **** all over it.
I have similiar spec'd alienware laptop besides I am running a 1920x1080 17 inch 3d screen and 8gb ram

Looking at this article/test from TH it should be ok. But don't take me as the guru here.. I just searched for it on TH. There are other sites and much more knowledgeable people out there for this.

FHD, max graphics detail, max AA, single client CQ at 60+ steady FPS ? They haven't built such a mobile graphics card yet. Linkage The top two most powerful ones at the moment (ATI RADEON HD 6970M and NVIDIA GTX 485M - which are BARELY about as good as a desktop GTX 460) or a dual-card setup (allegedly, Dual ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870 setups actually do exist) could probably come close though. _

Yes it is what I meant :P It isent as bad in performance compared to a desktop card, lots of people say it is but tbh I havent seen a huge dip if FPS.
I can run 3 eveclients @ 1920x1080 with nvidia 3d vision on my lappy atm. In fixed windowed mode, I get around 45fps at all times. This is with like 20+ chrome tabs in the background (this is honestly why I chose 8gb over 4 or 6 :p)
But I very much doubt I could do that with CQ, maybe 2 clients not 3.
I wouldnt be too concered if I was you, just fit your rig to your budget and at a mid range level, dont go ****ing spending ******ed amounts of money :p
Just deal with the lag for now on more than 1 client, your cool for 1 atm so just enjoy :)

GTX 460M is very roughly half the speed of a desktop GTX 460. Slightly over half, but not by much. 52%-57% or thereabouts. _

Heh - I've still got a 4Gb 5684WLMi which is just about chugging along enough to do bits and pieces on Eve, but I'd not want to do any reasonable PVP ops on it. I tried League of Legends on it the other day and it ran at about 3 FPS. I'm expecting to replace it later on this year and personally I'd like a little more screen res than the one you've posted, but what machine is that you're looking at, if you don't mind my asking?
