Duo Pro T2600 in a laptop

Headshot

Duo Pro T2600 2.16 GHz, 2 MB L2
is that a good processor

i taught it was a core 2 duo but its only a core duo

just curious

is it a good processor for playing games

TerrorFirmer

It's fine. I have a 1.66Ghz Core Duo, as I've no problem belting out Battlefield 2 and Company of Heroes so I wouldn't worry about it. Whatever accompanying graphics card thats running alongside it will probably be a potential bottleneck sooner then the processor.

i have a NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GS with it and 2gbs of ram

will that be good enough to play cryis on high

TerrorFirmer

I doubt it. It will play the game, but at what settings is anyones guess, although I would wager that it won't run the game at high settings.

I've a 7900GS and 1.66Ghz Core 2 Duo, is there a demo I can try?

TerrorFirmer

No, not yet.

what laptop processor would be ideal for games

what would a Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T7200

TerrorFirmer

Any of them are generally ok. The T2600 you first mentioned is more then enough - your Go7900GS is going to be the limiting factor, not the processor.

The T7400 is the Core 2 Duo 2.16Ghz version.
