Posted October 21, 2015 hi, i got a Dell Inspiron 1720 with a Intel Core 2 Duo T7100 (maybe expand it to a T7800), 4 gb of ddr2 and i am planning to to connect a dock to the mini pci from the pc. so i am going to put a MSi GTX 960 Gaming 4G on the dock. so, is the performances going to be good or it do not worth the try?

Posted October 21, 2015 your current spec for the laptop is pretty weak to run any intensive games the CPU is the major bottleneck Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible. Quote whom you're replying to, and set option to follow your topics. Or Else we can't see your reply.

Posted October 21, 2015 If you're used to lower end computers, I'd put the money have budgeted for the work on your laptop off to side and start saving. When you mess with laptops you are playing with the worst performance per dollar ratio out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 21, 2015 If you have the rig listed in your profile, scrap your 4G 960 since the memory bus is too slow to make use of it, get a 970 or R9 390 and a SSD. If you have a Skylake i5 with 16 GB RAM, you should really have a better GPU than the 960. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
