Gaming on a 13 year old Dell XPS Laptop

- So, the most challenging part of this video was to find fairly recent games that would run on this baby. The Geforce Go 7900 GTX is only capable of DirectX 9.0c but also the CPU the CoreDuo T2500, being the first iteration of Intel's Core microarchitecture, which doesn't feature EMT64 limited the selection even further as not all games, even older ones, offer a 32bit version.

Specs:
-----------
Model: Dell XPS M1710
CPU: Intel CoreDuo T2500, 2.0 GHz
RAM: 4 GB DDR-2 PC5300 SDRAM (only 3.5 GB usable due to 32bit)
GPU: Nvidia Geforce Go 7900 GTX, 512 MB
HDD: 500GB Toshiba (had to replace the original 320 GB Samsung due to faulty sectors)
That laptop did well considering its age, and its components, I liked the details in rgb. Good vid
I have one of these also, But Its Just Leds Not Rgb I Think
Also Finding Working Ones Is Almost Imposible
You really undersold this thing.
If you had some upgrades it wouldn't be so clunky.
Get a 1600M in there. They work perfectly and can do DX10 SM4, better for video/youtube 1080p.
Also a 240Gb cheap SATA2 SSD (gets you max SATA1 of 150MB/s), an ExpressCard for USB3 (so you can read/write at 150MB/s to USB) and a T7600G (goes up to 3.3Ghz 1.5V stable), 2x2Gb DDR2 so it's in dual channel (you can tighten the memory with an SPD flash tool) overclock them a bit and use manual bios override fan control
(Hold Fn Key+Left Shift, input 1, 5, 3, 4, 2...then Fn+R works on 2004-2008 dell laptops) and your numbers here would easily double. Anything that still supports 32 bit and DX9 will play well on here still (smaller games) in 1080p.
It can also take a wireless N mini-pcie card easily. Get about half the network speed of modern laptops (120mb/s)
You'll need at least a 200W power supply with that setup if you use it for any games. Obviously not as good as a notebook now but mine is on par with an intel uhd integrated video and can easily stream games from my gaming PC to it).
And it can flash to music with the right drivers.
I use mine for work still as it's sturdy with a great 1080p screen with better colour then some cheaper modern laptops, like a mobile workstation 100%.
I get 7200 in 3d mark 06. Runs Windows 10 64 bit. I use the latest 8700M GT drivers.
It's an old beast but can still be used in 2021 amazingly (more for movies, a game stream client and work).
I still hook up the bluetooth to my surround system and get the lights flashing for a fun dance party (the laptop speakers are....okish).
Surely, I could invest several hours of time and $$ (likely $$$) on upgrade parts for a completely obsolete laptop to improve things a tiny bit, it's just not worth it IMO.
@@ZERF1CKER might be when it becomes a collector's piece.
I got mine custom by dell cost me £1,100 back then and was top graphics ,played call of duty modern warfare 3 spot on full graphics
I had one of these back in 06 with the T7600 CPU, used to run Oblivion quite well at near max settings.
Too bad the Go 7xxx series was so bad with GPU failures, went through 3-4 replacement graphics cards before Dell just replaced the laptop with an Alienware.
I was given one of these and am wondering if they still work
Overall it does much better than I had initially anticipated, the CPU is the limiting factor though... Given that it's socketed it can be upgraded to a Core 2 Duo T7600 to get a bit more performance out of it, that would be pretty cool to see TBH, but the T7600 is stupidly high priced for what it is (20-30€)
EDIT: Though there's something wrong with that Minecraft result, even for 1.14.4 that seems like performance that you would get out of a 478 Pentium 4 given that the game is properly set up
This laptop used to tear through Source games but now with the newer engine can't even run on all low! Dang. Also older builds of Minecraft can run perfectly fine, I got the most recent build playing okay on it but it stutters for half a second every five or so seconds. Probably has to do with the GPU, it was pretty fresh back then but it got outdated real quick, GeForce 8 series lasted much longer... Still a cool anomaly from back then, the RGB was pretty fresh.
100 fps on cs 1.6?
How’d you get it to ru so well
HOW U install drivers for 7
ddr2 ram wtf lmfao
Ребят, ЄТО НАИГРОННАЯ ХЕРНЯ!!!!!
