    Re: Who uses laptops to play BF2?

    Sure. I got my laptop this morning :)

    Sony Vaio SZ1M/B
    1.66ghz core duo
    geforce go 7400 128mb
    1gig ram (upgraded from 512mb)
    13.3" wide screen (XBlack is beautiful)

    Runs at high settings with steady FPS or Medium even faster.
    I got my mine from www.laptopsdirect.co.uk. They fitted it with 512mb extra ram for just £50, and delivered the next day.

    Im very happy with it, BUT BF2 does not do widescreen, so the edges of the screen are filled with black. Also, in video settings, i can only do 2 different relolutions (800x600 and 1280x800). Still, it does look great, and eats my desktop for breakfast (see sig)!

    Hope this Helps!
    For a COMPACT laptop, id definately look at this.

        The graphics card is the most important thing you should look for in a laptop if you want to play BF2. Any graphics chipset with the second digit in it higher than 6 should suffice (i.e. X600, 6600, 7600, X1600, etc). Other components are rather academic, as any laptop with a good graphics card will have good components all round (i.e. decent CPU/RAM/HDD).

        What's your budget and where in the world are you?

              Right now I have a 6600 GeForce GT and I run BF2 on high (I thought my comp would blow up if i did that lol)

                    The problem with laptops is that to get a really powerful one, it needs to be big. Basically, the smaller you get, the less powerful it is.

                            I once used my AMD 64 Laptop till I built my new Desktop. I use it at work when I do 24 Hr duty and can find a hotspot to log into BF2. :)

                              I use my desktop. I plan to get a laptop next year for college, but there's no way I'll be able to play BF2 on it. It's fine for me as long as it can run a word processor.
