Yeah I looked into this a LOT since my rig is 64 compatible and I know it requires separate purchases, installations and licensees I am still so tempted but in addition to the cost and the fact that my labtop is old and "beyond well used" and on it's last legs it may not be worth it. I will wait until I can get the cash to buy a new one hopeful with windows 7 64 Tried windows 8 and it was a PIA.

Oh well it was a gift and it has given me fun years I think it is 4 or 5 years old. it is the same one that I started doing PC gaming (at least a year later [still hate WASD in some games]) eventually discovering mods and what eventually got me to reach out online and discover this amazing community edit ugh I sound like a damn cliche

Just get a new pc IF you can. Looks like pouring money into something that old (in technology terms 5 years is an abyss) is simply not worth it.

No laptop will ever compare to a desktop RAW GPU power... save the money for something more important.

I started playing FO4 on my ROG i7 laptop... After 3 months... Bought a new desktop with Twin GTX 980Ti in SLI... never went back to the laptop... ;)
