Thinking of buying a laptop

[MattB64]

I am thinking of buying a Inspiron 1520
The specs are:
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo T5250 (2MB cache/1.5GHz/667Mhz FSB)
2GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz, 2 Dimm
256MB NVIDIA ®GeForce™8600M GT

Will this be good enough to play N64 and DS roms? Or should I get a better processor? Like Intel® Core™ 2 Duo T7500 (4MB cache/2.2GHz/800Mhz FSB)

Should certainly be enough. I'm not sure if some requiring games such CBFD requires a faster procesor, but I doubt it.

Ok thanks, but what is CBFD?

Edit
Will Glide64 run good with it?

CBFD is Conker's Bad Fur Day

Glide64 will not work with an NVIDIA graphics card unless you have a glide wrapper. Use hackterux's glide64 wrapper if you still wanna use Glide64.

Overall, good laptop.

For N64 games, that would be enough, but for NDS, I would recommend that you get the faster processor you can afford. the T5250 is the slower processor for that laptop model, high demanding games and emulator like NDS, or PS2 emulators would require the most power you can squeeze from the system, so a processor with a 800Mhz FSB, like the T7500 would be good. If you can afford the difference in price you should go for the faster processor.

Overall it's a good laptop, but you might want to find one with a little faster processor. You should have no problem with N64 games, but I'm not sure on DS games.

Thanks for the help guys. I ordered the slower processor because I can't afford the faster one. To get the faster one I would of had to spend $350 more.
