GooseGaws said: skip brings up a good point as well; if you want to stick with the Inspiron, you can actually get a dedicated graphics card in the 14.1" model (I think it's the 1420) for $100. I don't really know how much that will help in the long run either, though. EDIT: I know very little about integrated graphics vs. dedicated graphics; if a machine has 1GB of system memory assigned to graphics, is that in no way comparable to a 128MB dedicated graphics card? |
it depends on so many other factor, ie: how fast is the video card processor, so on... that is why you want to get as big ram as you can. so you can dedicate some to your video card in case you need it.
the video card they make you pay is garbage, not worth 100 bucks, I say unless you are a gamer who is looking to use the laptop to play game, don't get it and just buy a console
