I have a desktop from 2005. P4, 3.0 GHZ, 2 GB of RAM, 6800GT Video card. 400 Mhz FSB, DDR 400. Windows XP Pro.
My girlfriend has a laptop from 2007:
AMD Turion TL-58 processor 1.90 Ghz | 1600 MHz | 1 MB L2 cache Chipset RS690T
ATI Radeon® X1270 Up to 256 MB of HyperMemory™
2048 MB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM (2 × 1024)
250 GB 5400 RPM SATA hard drive
Windows Vista Home
Her system specs should blow mine out of the water, right? So why do games (Left 4 Dead in particular) run so much slower on her computer than they do on mine?
