Don't consider ram as I have installed more in each one. Thing is, I want to keep one and get rid of one. I like to play games although I know they will be older games like command and conquer generals and rome total war etc if that helps.

Which one runs your games the best?

 

[WR2]

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 graphics is just slightly better than Radeon Xpress 200M graphics. Both are very poor choices for any type of 3D gaming.


AMD Mobile Athlon 64 3200+ is a single core CPU and falls pretty far behind the Core Duo Processor T2500 in CPU processing power.

ZV6000 is a probably 2005 model and Inspiron e1505 is probably a 2006 model.

I could get a better gaming laptop for $300

A quite a bit better gaming laptop - especially if you don't mind a used model.

havent tried the dell yet. I just acquired it for free. I use my main custom built desktop for my real gaming so i'm not 'really' going to be using them for gaming. I am just using that as my yardstick

The only real 'pro' to either is you don't have to hand over money for them.

Both fall FAR short of a running any 3D games.
Have you tried your games on the HP? Would probably be about the same result on both.

How about selling both and get as much money you can get for a new one?

Hmm I like what you're saying. I think i can probably get $350 for both. What's a good laptop to get with that? I know, Big question, but just off the top of your head?
