Ladyah Liandri Soapbox Pilots	Posted - 2007.01.10 13:47:00 - [34] Originally by: DeckardIRL first off forget any pvp action. Why again? I play EVE on two Notebooks without any problems whatsoever. 1. HP nx7000, Pentium M, 1.5 GHz, 512 MB RAM, Ati Radeon Mobility 9000 2. IBM Thinkpad, Pentium M, 1.7 GHz, 2 GB RAM, Ati Mobility X300
RuleoftheBone Minmatar UK Corp Lotka Volterra	Posted - 2007.01.10 14:22:00 - [35] Edited by: RuleoftheBone on 10/01/2007 14:19:43 My work laptop runs EvE just fine when I travel: Compaq nx6110 Celeron 1.4GHz 512 RAM Intel onboard 915M 128Mb RAM Video Generic onboard sound Coming from a guy who averages 180 nights yearly on the road your biggest headache is going to be the so-called "high-speed" internet access in your hotel rooms. While the connection may read 10M...the reality is thats just the local connection--the hotels choke you on the outbound leg to whatever cheap 128k/256k pipe they have. Plus the fun of logging on after work and watching the bandwidth reduced to near-zero as the fellow hotel guests begin **** downloads and other silliness Of course with a wireless connection you can sometimes do better depending on the location (hehe...you silly folks and your non-password/MAC addy protected wireless home networks ...scary how many of you are out there without a clue....but cheers for the EvE bandwidth options )
Auria Ronin	Posted - 2007.01.10 15:00:00 - [36] I have the following - Pentium-M 1.7 GHz 2GB Ram ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 128MB 15" Widescreen
Andreas Syneticus	Posted - 2007.01.10 15:02:00 - [37] Originally by: Cammulos Funny thing, I just bought an Asus g1 yesterday, set to arrive sometime tomorrow. Will be more than happy to give you my 2cents on how it runs. Yes, please do! I think the only difference between the G1 and G2 is the 17" display on the G2, I can't find much difference outside of that... I checked out Alienware again, but find they can't provide the same performance as other makers (ASUS) for the price point... If they were more competitively priced, I'd probably go Alien.
Zaenar	Posted - 2007.01.10 15:12:00 - [38] Buy one of those Apple MacBook Pros, they work like a charm using BootCamp. Once you'll have one, join the frey and curse CCP for beeing forced to boot that wincrap thing only to play your favorite game. DX10 is bad for your health, mkay?
Deros Minmatar Black Omega Security The OSS	Posted - 2007.01.10 15:43:00 - [39] i have a dell laptop: 2.16ghz intel core duo 2 2gb ram nvidia geforce go 7300 i can easily run 2 clients, 3 gets a little laggy. 5 is possible if all at 1024x768, but it puts out some heat then ;) D
VaderDSL Caldari Total Mayhem. Maelstrom Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.10 16:16:00 - [40] I play on a macbook pro, works flawlesly. I have PvP's lots on this laptop, and best thing about it I can take Eve with me wherever I go.
LittleLostRobot	Posted - 2007.01.10 16:31:00 - [41] My work laptop is a Dell M1710 intel core duo 2 (2.16GHz) 2gb ram nvidia geforce go 7900 GTX Can run multiple clients at 1900 * 1400, don't really pvp yet so can't help you there unfortunately. tbh the only app I have trouble with is bloody visual studio.
Strel Samodelkin Caldari	Posted - 2007.01.10 16:43:00 - [42] Originally by: DeckardIRL first off forget any pvp action. Unless you buy the best and that is expensive. I use a HP that has a mobile radeon chip and the only thing I do in it is haul (I dont mine anyway). It has 1Gb ram and plenty of disk excellent wide screen for dvds but 3D gaming environments... try looking for a laptop that has Vista installed with a DirectX 10 compatible graphics card and dual core... Deck I occasionally use a Compaq, and the game does run. You just have to configure it correctly. I'm going to post a reply soon on what to do to get the most out of it. The origional "hate monger"
Backalley Anna Jericho Fraction The Star Fraction	Posted - 2007.01.10 17:09:00 - [43] Dell 9400 w/NVidia GeForce go 7400 256 2ghz Intel duo 2 gb ram 7200rpm hd I run 2 clients at once with no problems. I can handle pvp on one and scouting on the other. The key is a good fast video card and a fast HDD. If you want to game, drop the $$ for the better video card- the typical Radeon x800 promoted in "gaming notebooks" just won't cut it. Mine is more of a desktop replacement really, with the 17.1" display I get just under 2 hours on the battery (and that is the extended one too) If you can afford to wait about 2 months you can get a good deal from Dell. They offer the biggest discounts at the end of the first fiscal quarter. I guess they are trying for high sales numbers at the start of the year. Retail on that rig was about $3k, I got mine through my company for less (27 offices with Dell products helps) but you should also look online for coupons. I bought a $50-off stacking discount code from a guy on Ebay for $10, and saved an extra $40. aside from the crappy battery life I'm very happy with mine. ASUS has a reputation of for excellent components, but I've never used one of their notebooks. "Everything is theoretically impossible, until it is done." R.A. Heinlein

Fornacis Gallente hirr Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2007.01.10 17:24:00 - [45] Get you a Dell XPS laptop....built for gaming and you will be fine. I'm using a COMPAQ Evo with Radeon 7500, and it runs Eve well but I wouldn't PvP with it.
Lea Re Caldari CAPITAL TRUST FREGE Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.10 20:43:00 - [46] My setup is Sempron 2800+ 512 ram geforce Go5200 64MB and ive been playing eve on it for last year. so far im really happy. its all a matter of keeping your system clean
Aleksander Magnus	Posted - 2007.01.10 21:18:00 - [47] It's pretty simple. 1. Buy from an online retailer. If you're traveling you probably wont have access to a Best Buy all the time, so go ahead and buy one online, it costs less. (Sorry if you already knew this but a lot people seem to feel safer paying twice as much for a laptop from Best Buy or whatever because they can take it there to get it fixed, so just getting this out of the way first). 2. Decide what screensize you want (bigger screen is nicer to look at but increase price and decreases portability). I play on a 15.4 inch widescreen. 3. Once you pick screensize price out models from several manufacturers. Get the best cpu and most amount of RAM you can. A killer graphics card is always nice to have, but not neccessary for EVE with the current engine. (The new engine will change this, but the older engine will still be there) 4. Buy whichever one you like best, read reviews and whatnot to help you make your choice, figure out how to get the best deal, etc. I will not reccomend a specific laptop because different people will like different manufacturers and whatnot, and most of the laptops people are reccomending are based on the market x number of months ago, and the fact is it changes so often you might as well not even bother. The laptop I play on is a Dell E1505. It has a 15.4" widescreen display capale of 1650x1050 rez, a 2.0 Ghz dual core CPU (it pwns, get even better if you can), a Radeon Mobility X1400 (kinda meh but the laptop isn't large enough for a good card, not a big deal for EVE), and 2 gigs of RAM. Cost was approx $1550 in July. I can run the game with full AA and AF and max rez however because I live in 0.0 space I leave the AA and AF off in case of unexpected pvp. You can get an even better laptop now no problem for about the same money. Just do some poking around to find a good deal. Hope that helps.
Ranko Antares Frontier The Fifth Race	Posted - 2007.01.10 21:46:00 - [48] I would recommend one of the new MacBook Pro's. I just bought one of the 2.33GHz Core 2 Duo models, 2 gig ram, 256mb ATI X1600 Gfx. Works in EVE lightning fast, I run OSX on it for everything, apart from EVE which sits on a 5 gig WinXP BootCamp partition. Wish they would release EVE for OS X or find away to run it from the OS X environment tho.. even if it uses Cedega. --- fixed my sig images from 24,241 bytes to 23,997 bytes ^_^

Skrypt Shinra Lotka Volterra	Posted - 2007.01.13 07:24:00 - [50] While at college, I play on a dv800 from HP. Great laptop, huge screen, good play. About 7 months ago I paid like 1800 for it. Also, it plays BF2142 nicely. ___________
Mira deVorsha Caldari Boards.ie	Posted - 2007.01.13 08:16:00 - [51] Originally by: AzJunior Edited by: AzJunior on 09/01/2007 22:15:12 Hi, I use a laptop as well DELL M1710 it runs very well, but its an expensive laptop, i run dual monitors with a Dell 24.1" and the laptop monitor and it runs both monitors fine in 1920 x 1200, can run 3 eve's on it without it even lagging :) 1 GB ram 7900 GTS gfx card runs nicely :) Cheers, AzJnr This is what I use as well. Very sweet machine but as mentioned expensive. I don't have the extra monitors but I can run two eves in windowed mode while watching a movie and web browsing/downloading and no lag at all.

Xelas Alliance	Posted - 2007.02.15 15:39:00 - [53] Edited by: Agent 24 on 15/02/2007 15:36:01 I am actually going to be buying a dual purpose laptop in a couple of weeks. I narrowed my selection to two options because the value of these lil beasts outwieghs anything else I've seen, period. I needed small but powerfull and not too pricey, $1300-$1600. They also come with XP and free upgrades to vista so you get a choice :D ATI x1700 Nvidia 7700 here's a great website for GPU comparisons
Illyria Ambri Caldari	Posted - 2007.02.15 17:05:00 - [54] Originally by: Gygax amongst other possible candidates try http://www.alienware.com/product_pages/notebook_all_default.aspx then let your bank balance decide EVIL!!! Forget alienware.. go to www.pctorque.com and get a Sager... BTW fo all those Alienware hypers... Alienware dosen't build their own laptops.. they buy them from a company called Clevo. Sager also buys their laptops from Clevo. pctorque.com sells sagers Sagers = Alienwares w/o the extra 1k you spend for the glowing head and excess crap (assuming you dont wanna look like a complete geek when you pull out an alienware) Buy Sager.. I got one and love it.. play all my games and do my 3d modeling an animation on it. I got a 3.4ghz Intel cpu 1 gig ram 256meg NVidia GeForce 6800 go card I have max graphics turned on on all my games and only experience connection lag rather then graphic lag. to recap... Go Sager.. forget alienware and their huge markups. ------------ This is not War... This is pest control - Dalek Sek Happiness is a warm railgun

Cost for both laptop and monitor is about 1400ú. Hansen Currently recruiting The one who conquers, dictates the rules
Katt Dawn	Posted - 2007.02.15 17:33:00 - [56] Originally by: Backalley Anna Dell 9400 w/NVidia GeForce go 7400 256 2ghz Intel duo 2 gb ram 7200rpm hd I run 2 clients at once with no problems. I can handle pvp on one and scouting on the other. Same here - Just got my 9400 2 weeks ago same specs. It runs dual clients better than my desktop does. Price came out to be just under $2.5k with dell's rebates, deals, etc. Be sure to check both the home and business side of Dell for the best deal - the specs come out the same, but the prices can differ by $100 or more.
Discordian Saint	Posted - 2007.02.15 19:07:00 - [57] I play EVE on my HP dv9000 series notebook and it runs great. The machine is an Intel Core 2 Duo 1.67Ghz, 2GB of RAM, a GeForce Go 7600 video card with 256Mb dedicated DDR3 memory and a 17" widescreen. It runs just dandy having firefox, eve radio in winamp and eve running (with in game audio on), even in JITA I often connect my 21" Viewsonic widescreen to the VGA output to play at 1680x1050 with only a small, 10-15%, hit in framerate. Inside stations I get 130+ fps and in average space it normally runs around 60-70fps with crowded scenes dropping it to split-second lows of 20-30fps. When I turn the multi-sample up to 4 it cuts the frame-rates down noticeably so I normally have it set to 1. There are still those momentary pauses that I think is just a function of the EVE client and you'll never totally get rid of until they rewrite the client.
Wizzkidy	Posted - 2007.02.15 19:14:00 - [58] I have Almilo 2Ghz Centrino 6800Go Nvidia 1Gb DDR 80Gb HDD it does the job at LAN partys for other games as well as eve (and it means I dont have to lug my whole huge base unit around)
Naran Darkmood Gallente	Posted - 2007.02.15 19:25:00 - [59] Just got a Dell Latitude D820 for my work. It's running Eve fine (No, my work is not playing Eve, but it sweetens up one or another night at a hotel) Dual intel 1.66GHz Nvidia 7300 go with 128 Mb Originally by: Marcus TheMartin I thought there would be american isk farmers over on eve china to be honest
Static Shift Neogen Industries Serenity Fallen	Posted - 2007.02.15 19:32:00 - [60] Edited by: Static Shift on 15/02/2007 19:29:31 Since my desktop died, I've been playing on a Dell Latitude D610. 80 gig HD, 1gig ram, x600 128meg gfx - works well, as with all pvp you should turn off the shiny. I also have a 15" screen. external mouse is a requirement. EDIT: forgot the processor - 1.6Ghz
