  1. Hello all:

     

    Newbie time....

    .

    Currently I am using a laptop and that won't change any time soon, I may get a new one in the fall. My home is a boat and there is not a lot of room or power for a big stand up home system around. The one I have now is approaching two years of age and is a bit dated.

     

    Current Specs:

    Sager NP8130 / Clevo P151HM1

    - Display: 15.6” FHD 16:9 LED Backlit Wide screen (1920x1080) Super Clear Glare Type Screen

    - Graphics Video Card: nVidia GeForce GTX 560M 1,536MB Driver 9.18.13.697

    - Operating System: ~Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit Installed

    - Primary Hard Drive: 500GB 7200RPM (Serial-ATA II 300 - 16MB Cache))

    - Processor: 2nd Generation Intel® Core™ i7-2630QM, 2.0-2.8GHz, (32nm, 6MB L3 cache)

    - Ram: 8GB - DDR3 1333MHz Dual Channel Memory (2 SODIMMS)

    - Sound Card: Sound Blaster Compatible 3D Audio

     

    These specs are just fine to run most of the old games I use at max settings. I am catching up with the games I have missed.

    FarCry was a good play with mostly the highest settings, AA on 2 or disabled.

    I have acquired Thief 2 through GOM and have even played the Shadows of the Metal Age fan missions/game. All on the very highest settings..... I skipped Thief 3 because of the negative reviews. I was a Thief 1 fan prior to moving on to a boat.

     

    Now, because of finding The Dark Mod, I have ordered up a used copy of Doom3 from amazon (like new, very good condition, or so the advertising states.) I decided to go this rout because steam is so bad with 'international based' customers that move around with bank accounts and credit cards based in the USA. I tired to get reconnected with them but their support is less than stellar. Now for a little 6 hour drive to the old post box in Arizona.....

     

    I am a retired 'tool-maker' / systems programmer. Might try my hand at programming again.....
