Lets see, I have a laptop for portable gaming that I have to put an FPS cap on every game and I have my multiple monitor home entertainment system where I can watch TV while playing Skyrim while also playing Minecraft at the same time. The laptop was around $3000 and the PC was around $10,000 (because of the 4K HD monitors, luckily I got two of them as a birthday present, so it was more like $4000.) Edit: I get most parts for cheap since I work at a computer company, so the computers are a bit cheaper to build then they would be for a normal person.

Imo People should not buy laptops for gaming. Just build a damn pc, Its like lego but easier.
Every time I hear alienware I cringe. They are about 2x the price it would be to build it myself.
well i have a 200 dollar laptop...yeah
Well i just get left with all the old computers my family uses, so the one right now is Windows Vista Home Premium. Processor: Inter(R) Core(TM)2 CPUMemory(RAM): 2.00GBSystem Type: 32-bit operating systemThe problem is that its run out of memory and always gets a message saying "Your computer has run out of memory please close Java" which i cant do because thats what i use for minecraft. The next problem is that minecraft keeps crashing because it has no memory so ive quit minecraft for a while till i can get some RAM on this And also because my computer all together keeps crashing (mind you this computer has over 2000 errors and problems with it)

Memory(RAM): 2.00GBSystem Type: 32-bit operating system^ This sums up the problem. Without upgrading your hardware the FPS will tank no matter what.Adding more memory to Java isn't really going to do anything since there is no memory to work with and Vista isn't helping at all.Getting a new GPU won't solve the problem, MC does 90% of the work on the CPU (and on 1 core).Even an Intel integrated graphics chip is well more than enough for MC.If you want to solve the problem, get anything able to run Win7 with 8GB of ram.An i3 (sandy bridge) is more than enough, comes with integrated video and it's cheap.
I have an Acer Aspire One with the following:CPU: AMD Dual-Core Processor C-50 (1.0 GHz)MEMORY: 2 GB DDR3 MemoryBATTERY: 6-cell Li-ion batterySTORAGE: 250 GB HDDAnd it's all on a 13 inch screenIt would be great, except the dimwits who made the updates for the computer didn't make them compatible with Windows, which is the only thing I can run on my computer, so since I can't update, my computer has been going downhill fast. Just now, I logged on and was alarmed to see an error message saying the computer could not start up due to corrupted files, yet it couldn't find any corrupted files after half an hour of running diagnostics.
Ive tried updating it just today to windows 7 service pack and in the middle of the whole update it said i had to buy some stuff (and since i barely have any money cause i cant work since im too young to.. i cant buy anything) so trying to buy ram or buy a new pc will be very hard to do
