give us all of your laptops hardware specs. If it is nvidia I wouldn't see why not unless it's a very old laptop, but like I said, more specs would help. Don't forget Operating System ;)

I wouldn't recommend gaming on laptops.

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

Unless you pay a pretty good amount for it, like I did with my GX740.

This is the average H2 Fanboy.

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

I game on my laptop, but mine has a dedicated GPU. Not those integrated crap gpus.

What nvidia gpu do you have?

BUNGIE AND MICROSOFT FAILS HALO 2 VISTA.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

It would be a better idea to wait till new laptops are released, there is technology that will use PC gpus just by connecting it via the USB 3.0

That would be cool. I already have a decent laptop that can play good games though.

I never heard that. That's sick as hell if it's true.

I can't find the article which states they will use USB 3.0, but I'm sure it'll be obvious that with such a fast data transfer rate it will work. :D

aww damn, I shouldn't have suggested this, it's not even out yet. -_-

Well, currently there is an external graphics card device that plugs into the PCI Express card slot. It's made by Village Instruments and is called ViDock.
