Virtual RC - On a laptop?
 
I fancy getting virtual RC, will I be able to run it properly on a Laptop? Is so what sort of coin am I looking at for it?

I would bear in mind the 'next' version of Virtual RC if you are thinking of buying a laptop specifically for that job.

Northy 14-10-2008 06:08 PM

Ooooo, where do I find details of the 'next' version Chris?

VRC Pro is the next one, new graphics engine, new dynamics and the introduction of off-road!!

Northy 14-10-2008 06:36 PM

Any idea when it's due? :confused:

not public this year, so its defo worth getting the current one,

but if you are buying something specifically for VRC bear in mind the new version

Northy 14-10-2008 06:38 PM

What sort of machine do I require? :confused: :)

Something with a separate graphics card.

something with 3d graphics card, not on board graphics.

something like this as a bare minimum, but it isn't up to much games wise

something with a geforce card should have a bit more poke, like this

I have that line saved on a clipboard for easy access :woot:

I would get something with at least an 8xxx series geforce in it.

The bottom one listed above is good. There is also this:

This has less RAM but a better graphics card - so a compromise. Both should run VRC Pro though.

Not sure if I should admit to this:blush:

lee is right.:o mac book pro all the way!:thumbsup:

Remember guys the Apple laptops under £1400 have the most basic graphics chips possible and won't play games very well ;)

glypo 15-10-2008 10:11 AM

Okay I thought the Mac comments above were a joke.

VRC won't run on a Mac, and 99.99% of all games will not run on a Mac...

mac 15-10-2008 10:22 AM

Didnt mean as a joke for a mac I use duel boot so running as a pc:blush:

i have a cheap acer laptop just brought for under £250 as a referb and it plays it fine, will have it at worksop if you are there m8
