Will Project 1999 run smoothly on this laptop?
 
I don't know enough to tell. Any help?

The answer is most likely no. Other suggestions to laptops under 400 that can play P99?

My guess is that you probably have a basic graphics capability even on a Celeron. I remember feeling like I was hot shit for picking up my Voodoo3 64MB video card to run EQ. I think your bigger challenge will be getting EQ to run outside of Windows, or getting some kind of Windows functionality to the Chromebook.

I'm sure someone else here can do a better job than me at all this. I'm not a software guy. I make hardware. :)

On the other hand, if you want to buy a laptop under $400 that can run EQ, I have one laying around that I used to play P99 on. I'd let it go for $150. Intel Core2 Duo, 250GB HDD, 4GB RAM. It's an HP dv6 from around 2009.

chromebrooks are no bueno for gaming. just go to bestbuy and buy a regular Windows laptop for said budget.

Only if you can put Windows on it

Just pay a little more and buy a Surface Pro... It runs like a champ on a surface.

Go on eBay and find a used Dell precision 7500. Make sure it has an nvidia graphics card and a core 2 duo CPU. Should not be more than 300-350.

Reapin 08-16-2013 11:28 AM

Precision 7200. 7500 is a desktop.
