770m is definitely a good choice. I have one now along with the 920xm and it's great. If you dont want to shell out an absurd amount of money these are great options that will give you respectable performance. Couple that with 12 or so gb or ram and an ssd and you'll have a pretty decent pc.

Yea I just got a 770m and ive been trying to get the drivers to work on my m15x and ive had no luck. Any tips?

Edit. Never mind finally got it. Now just to get the audio to work...

I also think its got an element of entertainment as well. These consoles want to be more of an "entertainment machine" rather than something to play a video game on. I don't think its that gaming companies hate PCs it's just that much more easier for them to release a title that anyone can grab and not worry about system specs, etc. Just think of seeing a trailer for a game and thinking oh that seems cool and not having to worry about if your graphics card can handle it, are you going to have to upgrade, etc. I guess for the younger generation as well its easier to just go out and buy a console and a controller rather than deal with buying or building a gaming rig. Like it has been stated before, its all because of profit, nothing more, nothing less. There's just a lot more to deal with when it comes to releasing PC titles.

From the reviews ive been reading it seems that you need a super computer to play this game. Some people complain they get like 60 fps in the tutorial part of the game but when you start playing it dips so low its almost unplayable. I myself have yet to try it maybe i will soon but the game itself doesnt really do anything for me. There are no new elements it brings to the table just a grab whatever you can and beat the living daylights out of zombies with a small element of parkour. Eh, maybe when it goes on sale in steam.

Yea I hope its not a disappointment performance wise. Developers today seem to just release pc titles without polishing them up first. When GTA4 was first out it was really unplayable to a certain extent. Even now with games like dying light you need like a super computer to get a decent fps

I believe you can use some newer nvidia drivers but im not sure how new you can go. Check out the thread entitled [h=1]675MX to a 770M? i think on the last page someone gets 337.88 drivers to work,[/h]

Yea you should go with a 920xm or a 940xm processor (920xm should be plenty). As for gpu for a decent one expect to pay at least in the 300 dollar range. The higher end ones are 400+. Sometimes you get lucky on ebay so keep searching there. You could look for a 770m perhaps they have a good price to performance ratio.
