Hi guys,

maybe there are some of you out there that know more on computers then me.

im looking to get this HP G72-120SD LINK

what do you think about specs? most use from me would be, internet browsing, a bit of gaming, DVD's gcard looks not bad to me? also what about the cpu? the new i3.. any good?

well it has good spec hdd and ram can be upgraded so i would be going on that

the graphics card is good im running the same on my vaio and well able to handle big games i played far cry 2 on it with no problems

the i3 processor is pretty new and not alot of reviews but it has some good ones so i cant see any problem there

dvd drive is well able to handle anything you can throw at it pitty it doent have bluray but i suppose you can live with that

its a nice machine i would recommend the hp/compaq computer to any one they are a great machine and very durable i only ever have problems with the vaio cant wait for it to break so i have a excuse to go back to owning a hp/compaq


if the money is right man i think this is a very nice computer and somewhat future proof

i dont need a blueray so a normal dvd drive will be good!

most things i was looking into where

HDMI output
good Gcard
Good proccesor
Big led screen.

but as you said.. cant find any good revies on the i3.. not even on this model of hp.. maybe cos its a new model?
