Graphics of 2.0 ghz vs. 2.4 ghz models? Thoughts?

The graphics on the 2.0Ghz model are perfectly fine for your purposes. I have one of these machines and it is excellent for just what you plan to do. Enjoy!

I just installed half life 2 on this and it plays smoothly (25-30FPS even during combat) at 1366 x 768 with a mix of medium and high detail (Looks great!). It can handle games just not the newest and most graphic intensive ones. Mind you I haven't upgraded to 4GB of memory yet so I'm sure it will be even better then.

Yes it does, though I wouldn't recommend trying to run the graphics on Ultra/Extreme on anything with a less than 2.6Ghz processor same as Wings of Liberty. However you can still run graphic on High you might be able to get away with Ultra if your Graphics card is good enough.

Yes, it is perfectly backwards compatible, and will actually perform exactly the same running on a 2.0 bus as it would a 3.0 bus since the amount of data GPU's can move can't even fully saturate the 2.0 bus, let alone even take advantage of the higher throughput of 3.0.

Surprisingly hard to find o the Intel site. Unless Intel Celeron 847 has changed it looks like Intel HD Graphics 2000:http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=143433&pid;=1224234#pid1224234

Not really. If you are browsing the web and word processing I would go with 2.0 GHZ. I would use the extra money to buy the extended applecare or add more memory.

Well, it has both, it has the onboard graphics (Intel 4600 HD) as well as, a dedicated Nvidia 750M 2GB graphic card as well... So, you can manually choose which graphic card should be used for which application...

It has both but reports the integrated 7660G. Games when set to performance using the AMD graphics configuration will use the 7970M. By the way, don't forget to update your drivers.

Try your best to get your money back. I can tell you from first glance that a 3615QM IS NOT 3.40 GHz. Just my opinion, but if I were you I'd be patient and wait for the GTX 680M technology to flourish. Believe me when I say it'd be worth your while.

Faster than what?You should be able to play without a problem. It depends on your graphics card though. I overclocked mine without any issues too. It is an old processor now. Hard to find motherboards for it.

Mine is an XPS15 / 9530, CPU is an I7-4702HQ running at 2.20GHz, 500GB SSD, 16GB DDR3. Native display resolution is 3200x1800 -- absolutely gorgeous. The vast majority of the apps I use are fully supported in this resolution and look great. So far, only the Foxit PDF suite doesn't "know" how to scale properly. Movies look great, the laptop boots in seconds, is extremely fast -- beautiful form factor. I've had this for several months, use many hours every day, and take it on planes twice a week. Very happy with the choice -- best machine I've owned.

I just got my asus eee 1000h, installed sl.Lowest settings, before I start doing any tweaks, I'm getting about 7fps.Haven't got to try out the slvoice yet, but I can click on things inside the enviroment, which I couldn't ever get to work on the org hp mini note, I think that was becuase the hp mini note had a via chipset, which just wasn't that widely apectedI have a 2 gig ram card coming in soon, and I hope that gets me a few more fps out of my system.Will try to post again when I get that installed and tested

My new machine is called an XPS15 model 9530 (is that what you are looking at?) It has CPU i7-4702HQ at 2.20 GHz. Display max resolution is 3200x1800; I found app setup easier if I config the resolution to standard HD (1920x1080). Looks good like that as well.

Yes it does, but it's the basic Intel graphics. It's not even as powerful as Intel's HD 2000 graphics. It's pretty terrible for gaming, but for basic things it should work pretty well.

It's good that you asked. From the box it says the requirements are based on a 3.2 GHz processor. I took pictures of the requirements section from the box mine came in. I'll upload them when I get to my pc.
