Hello,
I'm thinking of getting a new gaming laptop. I don't need much disc space so have specified 2 SSD's for fast loading. Would it be worthwhile replacing 1 for a normal hard drive?
Is there much benefit of a 2.7 ghz processor over a 2.4 ghz one?
Also, is it over the top? Can I cut down on something without losing much in the way of performance.
Thanks.
