  1. Having reached 32 now on my operative I think I can safely safe I have only just become a competent healer in warzones/flashpoints.

    Please, for the sake of those that come after me, put surgical probe lower in the tree. It only has to be third/fourth tier to stop other specs getting it and it would make being a healer that bit less frustrating.

    Thank you for your time :>

  2. Anyways I would really recommend that you spend a little extra and get the better gpu. I play this game fine a 450. But at the same time the high end settings get me an fps rate around 30-50. The 540 will under perform that. Just keep that in mind. Good luck!

     

    How about 550m then on the other build? The problem with going with the 555m is not only do I have the cost of the card upgrade but it also forces me to get a 9-cell battery. Not to mention from my own googling most of the 3gbs on the 555 is wasted ram just in there to up the price =/

    btw, what do you mean by "play this game fine a 450"?

     

    This machine would be doubling as my collegework machine which is why I'd rather not have a desktop. There's also not alot of space in my room for such a machine.

  3. Yeah I'm hoping the 6GB should do it. Basically I'm seeing how manageable I can get the price and if I can afford a 1080p display. Current machine has a very very pretty screen, and it's ruined other comps for me =[

     

    Good to hear it runs nicely. Can also opt for a similar piece that has a gt550m card instead of the 540m. Only downside I can see is needing to get a new laptop case.

    How hard would it be to replace the RAM in a dell xps17 post purchase? Assuming I wanted more later.

  4. Wanted to know if anyone could help me, I decided to upgrade from my 2year old studio xps since play with a jittering 15-20fps is hurting my eyes. All the settings on low =/

     

    Just wondering if this would be able to run swtor on high settings.

     

    2nd generation Intel® Core™ i7-2670QM processor 2.20 GHz with Turbo Boost up to 3.10 GHz

     

    6144MB 1333MHz Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM [1x4096 + 1x2048]

     

    2GB NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 540M Graphics Card

     

    Seems beefy enough but I don't know graphics cards. Can also go for a different model and get a gt555m card with 3gb. But that's about another 150euros. Furthermore should I opt for 8gb of RAM or would this be enough?
