Online multiplayer video games

Yeah, I used to play america's army and couldn't figure out why I had such low scores and would get killed so easily. Then one night I snuck up on an enemy soldier, emptied an entire clip into him, POOF he disappeared and reappeared 3' to the left where he shot and killed me. Turns out he was running a quad core hi perf machine with a net speed of 4 times what I was. It turned out I was running a full second and a half behind everyone else. It turned out that by the time my machine downloaded the data of all the other players, they'd already moved so I could never shoot and kill anyone.

OH, and at the time, I wasn't running the bare minimum setup. I was a couple of notches above that.

Moral of the story is: if it is a fast paced game, don't bother unless you have a top, or close to the top, notch machine and net access.....

Yeah. A lot of these games when they come out you more or less have to have bleeding edge technology to play competitively.

I have a laptop, a relatively new one, with a fire GL video card even, that I spent $1500 on a few months back, but it's *nothing* compared ot the performance you would get out of a similarly priced desktop machine with the latest desktop video card.

So I am thinking if I want to play COD either I have to buy a desktop machine or I have to play COD4/5. I don't want to buy a destop because I like the nice clean look of my desk these days--no computer, like an old style writing desk, laptop stuck in a drawer out of sight when not in use.

Desktops are unsightly.

Well, you do know that a good carpenter can make a modded desktop case that can look like just about anything?

I've seen some that look like a barrister's case, a lunch box, a cigar box, a hummer......using a wireless keyboard and mouse the only things that would run to it are power and your video card.
