Is F20 good for gaming?

Hi,
I'm thinking of buying a Qosmio F20-130 but I'm not sure how good it would be for gaming? I note that the GPU isn't the best but I'd be really pleased to hear from anyone who's had first-hand experience.

Hi
Qosmio is a very nice notebook.
As far as I know it was delivered with a strong nVIDIA GeForce FX Go6600 128 MB graphic card.
The fact is that the notebook graphic cards are not similar with the desktop PC graphic cards.
The notebook graphic cards has no own cooling system because of space. In this case the graphic driver controls the graphic card performance. It decreases the performance if the temperature goes to the critical level. But this activation you will find on all notebooks.
A friend of my uses a G20 for gaming. Its not a F20 but very similar. And he is very satisfied.

Is the MacBook Pro with retina display good for gaming?

I was looking at the MacBooks and I was thinking about the one with retina display. I wanted to know if it was good for gaming also. Just something like skyrim or maybe WOW.

If you're not a heavy gamer, then yes it will be great.
I play WoW at full retina display with the performance I noted above - if you have trouble, you could always revert to 1440x900 just for WoW and Skyrim.
I know WoW lets you choose a resolution within the game so nothing wo worry about outside - not sure about Skyrim but maybe so?
I am a light gamer. I used to have a 2011 MBA, just an off the shelf model with no upgrades, and it played WoW very well for its size etc.
An iMac would be great too. For the price of a rMBP you could go for an iMac for games/home use and a base spec MBA for working on outside...?
However iMacs are pretty outdated atm - not allowed to say much on here but might wanna wait for something to happen...

Is the 802.11 ac good for gaming?

we have 3 xboxes in my house and I was wondering if this device would be good for gaming?

If you are trying to run 3 xboxes at once to online games you will find it well neigh impossible without a router that is fully Microsoft Vista UPNP spec and above.. due to the nature of NAT routers each xbox will need the same ports opened .. this is not possible.. only using upnp can xbox negotiate a different port.. and apple did not include upnp in the apple router.. so I think you are going to run into big problems.. you cannot simply use port mapping..
I would strongly recommend a router on the xbox compatible list.
here is the comment about apple routers for mulitple xbox connection.

15" Macbook Pro i7 4GB Ram good for gaming?

Hi, I'd like to know if the 15" MBP i7 4GB Ram good for gaming? I'm not gonna be an intense gamer I would just like to play games during my down time. All I will be playing is like 1 MMORPG and maybe 1 or 2 FPS games. I will not be doing this all at once. I will be using bootcamp. I have some friends tell me that they wouldn't play games on the MBP because it could ruin it? Is this true? They tell me that it's not wise to play games on this laptop.

It would depend on the games and how demanding they are, but generally laptops make for horrible gaming platforms in general. Apple laptops in particular tend to be among the thinnest of the bunch. A MBP can be thinner than plenty of netbooks out there while packing considerably more punch. That doesn't leave a lot of room for any excess heat that may be generated while gaming.
If we're talking older games, that probably aren't all that demanding, then maybe. If we're talking newer games that are pushing the limits of the laptop's specs, I'd recommend against it.

Just purchased the new Macbook Pro 13-inch: 2.3 GHz, Is it good for gaming?

Right, so I just purchased the new Mac Book Pro 13-inch: 2.3 GHz, Is it any good for gaming, On a scale of 1-10 (10 being the best) how good?
Can I run games like The Sims 3 flawlessly? Will I have problems with lagging and speed .etc?

Sims 3 will run on medium setting with approximately 33 fps (which is ok).
Most other games will run on low settings, some on medium. Its definitely not a gaming laptop but it can handle some games.

Which notebook model is good for gaming?

Hello!
Prompt me please what better to take notebook for games from your firm?
In advance thanks!

Hi Dmitriy
Well, it's not easy to say which notebook is good for gaming.
A friend of mine has bought a Qosmio notebook and was satisfied with the performance. Also the newer Satellite notebooks are pretty performance strong.
In my opinion if you want to play only the games and the portable factor is not very important for your so I would recommend to use the desktop PC.
The desktop PC is easier for device and part upgrading. You can change the CPU and the graphic card. The notebook upgrading is not very easy and some parts like graphic card or CPU cannot be changed.
Also the graphic card drivers are very important for the gaming. Notebooks manufacturers use not original graphic card manufacturer's drivers. They design own graphic drivers because of the graphic card overheating protection. Sometimes such drivers are a little bit older then newer original graphic card drivers and not compatible with the newer games.
It's your choice.

Is Man mini any good for gaming?

Hi everyone !
I'm planning to buy a 2014 Mac mini (16gb, corei7). But i'm not sure if it's good for hardcore gaming (GTA V, Battlefield 4...) because of the graphics (Intel Iris Graphics). I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me if I can run good games without any problems.

Good for gaming??

I am getting a laptop for college and I was wondering how the 17 inch macbook pro is for gaming. I play City of Villains, Team Fortress 2, Left 4 Dead, Age of Conan, Lord of the Rings Online, and I will be playing Global Agenda,The Old Republic, and Champions Online when they come out. How can the new macbook pro handle these games?

Dont get a laptop with a videocard much stronger than the 9600 or 9800m. Any laptop with SLI cards will overheat and also weigh at least 10 lbs. If you really need a gaming machine then build a PC desktop. I would certainly agree that the 13" with the 9400m is all you'll need for laptop needs since you want something that's portable, has a good battery, and wont overheat. If you want power and dont care to carry a computer around, build a desktop. If you want a laptop, get the 13" MB or MBP. With a $2000 budget you could buy the MB AND build a desktop to run all those games flawlessly. In reality, a laptop will never run a game as nice as a desktop in the same price range.
Coming from a college student, the more portable your laptop the better it is. You will never carry around a 17" laptop no matter if it's Mac, Alienware, or w/e.

IMacs are good for gaming

Im thinking about buying a 21'' Imac for gaming and other stuff, would it be good for playing some games?

Buy a dedicated gaming box, instead.
Better for gaming than a Mac and less expensive.
The 21 inch screen iMac models won't cut it for gaming if you need high resolution, fast refresh graphics.
The 21 inch screen iMac models only come with a 512 VRAM GPU.
Not enough GPU power for high end gaming with high resolution graphics requirements.

Is the New Macbook good for gaming?

I am about to buy a new MacBook Pro. I was planning on getting the MacBook Pro without retina with the i7, 1tb HDD and 8gb of ram. I am wondering if this will work for gaming. I am going to bootcamp with Windows 7 as soon as I get it. Is this a good idea or will I have problems with graphics or any other issues?

Okay, so here's my opinion on this as I have the MacBook you're planning to purchase. I have the 13 inch which means without the graphics card.
It's a decent gaming machine. It's okay for gaming here and then.
As OGELTHORPE mentioned, Mac's aren't meant for gaming. The machine will just get really hot, and won't give you the best performance.
Now as for me, I came from a 2008 sony vaio. The increase in performance was amazing, but for me.
So, go with a macbook air, and then build your own desktop. It's going to be much more beneficial. Although seeing your budget though, you won't be able to build a super powerful gaming PC, rather a standard, with simple graphics card gaming machine.
However, it's better than buying a MacBook Pro and gaming on it in my opinion.

Is the mac book pro good for gaming?

Is it good for heavy minecraft work? And which core should I get?
Thanks

Minecraft does not have heavy system requirements, so any of the current models will play minecraft just fine. Either the Core i5 or Core i7 will do for what Minecraft requires, so if you are only interested in Minecraft then I'd go for whatever fits your best price (the 15-inch will ultimately do better than the 13 inch because of the dedicated graphics card). If you are looking to extend beyond Minecraft and do heavy graphics processing in games or otherwise, then go for the Core i7 and higher quality dedicated graphics card.

Is the intel celeron 900 good for gaming

i got a toshiba l455 and it has intel celeron 900 and it is for world in conflict

Nope. It's barely capable of web surfing, e-mail, and word processing. Celerons are at the lowest end of the laptop processors. I seriously doubt that the graphics chipset in that system will handle gaming either.
If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

Which headphones are good for gaming ?

i am thinking of buying gaming headphones . which ones are the best for a macbook pro ?

If you want to do any serious gaming, get a desktop PC. Preferrably build your own (saves a lot of money).
Alienware laptops are over-priced and over-hyped. For that much money, you could build a beast gaming rig.
There are some tutorials online by this awesome guy that should help you get started!
