guys, how much did you spent for your systems, without the desktop (I own one that is good enough)?

i payed with sterling pounds, but depends, if you are not satisfied with your rig then buy, if it does the work for you, don't. simple as that.

Would you recommend doing it for Laptops? I've got an Sandy Bridge i7 - 2670QM 2.2GHz (Turbo to 3.1GHz) I get around 30FPS with the NGX on a UK2000 Scenery, not too bad for a laptop with High settings but when I connect my external monitor I have a feeling that will drop to about 20FPS as going from 720p to 1080p.. Advice?

 

That CPU probably can't be overclocked beyond using the turbo boost. At any rate, overclocking a laptop is almost always a bad idea because of the lack of cooling. We're all using some pretty sizable coolers compared to the stock heat sink.
