It's not going to game particularly well, but the CPU is still pretty potent for multithreaded workloads.

The $350 price might be due to condition. Is the system beat up, or is it still pristine?

Thanks for the opinion, now if my 128 gb ssd is operable how should i use it with the system (has 2 slots), its kind of annoying that everything defaults to the boot drive when it'd be nice if I could just run the OS and use the SSD for improved performance kinda like the USB caching stuff.

Uh he tends to take care of electronics pretty well, said he was doing the price since Im a friend.

Are you planning to do a fresh install?

Yea

Either that or a reset if possible, redoing the install is always such a pain on laptops

I was going to ask him to bring any discs that came with the system

@Skyler If so, install Windows onto the SSD and redirect folders and install software to the HDD.

In any case, $350 is a pretty good price.

It won't run the latest games, but it'll handle everyday tasks without a hiccup.

@bwDraco Is there a way to make that the default installation way?

You know, kind of softcode the hardcoded behavior you see in those hybrid hdd/ssds

Are you familiar with the process of configuring Intel Smart Response Technology? The HM67 chipset should support it.

@bwDraco I'm not familiar with it but I am a quick study. HM67 chipset is referring to the i7 right?

@Skyler That's the chipset on the motherboard.

oh ok, well that's good to know

welp

that's pretty certain

got vids of people wall hacking

(HM67 not listed, but is available in the chipset - whether you can use it will depend on the manufacturer)

Lol

@bwDraco thanks\

@Skyler my brother has that laptop. It holds up well performance wise buuuuut he has had to replace the charger input jack twice

@JourneymanGeek in the laptop itself?

Yup. His is a bit battered

LE has done 100,000,000 certs o_O
