We shot this on Qain's new Canon camera... The next one will be on the "real" camera. Let me know what you think of the quality.

Hey Logan,

I've been looking for a new laptop for a while now, partly for doing university work, and partly to game on. I have a budget of about £550. I've come across two laptops that have taken my eye, both Acer, both refurbished, and I wanted your opinion:

1) ACER Aspire 5742G Refurbished Laptop - £579

Specs:
Processor:
Intel® Core™ i5-460M Processor
- 2.53 GHz (2.8 GHz Max Turbo Frequency)
- 2.5 GT/s DMI
- 3 MB L3 cache
OS:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
RAM:
4GB DDR3 RAM
Graphics card:
NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 420M
- 1GB dedicated video memory
Hard drive:
500 GB

2) ACER Aspire 5745G Core i5 Laptop - £529

Specs:
Processor:
Intel® Core™ i5-460M Processor
- 2.53 GHz (2.8 GHz Max Turbo Frequency)
- 2.5 GT/s DMI
- 3 MB L3 cache
OS:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
RAM:
4GB RAM (Does not specify DDR2 or DDR3)
Graphics card:
NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 420M
Hard drive:
640GB

What do you think? I was thinking of going for the 2nd option, as it's £50 less for essentially the same thing.
Are there any other laptops that have better or similar specs for a better price?
How would they be for gaming?
What games would I realistically be able to run?
I would REALLY appreciate it if you could reply, I do understand you are a busy guy :)

Thanks in advance,
Jack.

Question 2:

Hello logan.

I have a few questions that I wanted to ask you. Well the first one is about motherboard and video cards, I have an asus motherboard its a p7p55d-e. It says that only supports crossfire, and my question is what if I put a dual gpu card like a 9800gx2 will it run it at full 16x and will both GPUS be utilized by video games and video editing software. Im running an intel xeon x3430 at 3.98ghz

On to the next one, whats the best format to encode audio,mp3,acc,aiff encoder,lossless, or wav which one gives you the best sound I cant tell.

Thank you
Alex

Question 3:

what are views on medical marijuana? The evidence is overwhelming that marijuana can relieve certain types of pain, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms caused by such illnesses as multiple sclerosis, cancer and AIDS -- or by the harsh drugs sometimes used to treat them. And it can do so with remarkable safety. Indeed, marijuana is less toxic than many of the drugs that physicians prescribe every day. Do you think medical marijuana should be legalized in every state? if not, why not?

Question 5:

Any thoughts on 22 nm architecture IVY BRIDGE (allegedly half the power consumed and 20% better then Sanddy Bridge) and the new nvidia Kepler GPUs supposed to be 3 to 4 times "performance per watt" comming out late 2011 allegedly?

Question 6:
Logan
I was wondering if I could launch an official server for Raze the World and Brink, I wanted to get your permission before doing it. I think the game will be amazing and bring back a much needed aspect of FPS. What is your take on this game, and if you will allow me to launch a Brink server can you announce it in the video as to get the word out. I want RTW to be one of the most popular Brink servers that everyone wants to play on, because we are just that damn awesome.
