Not true.

Laptops have (can have) the same processors in them as desktops, but usually have lower powered processors to save battery juice. Even if it's a high powered processor, it has the heat issues to overcome as well. Of course, the post just below the one I quoted said as much so call this a supporting post.

What is true is that laptops can easily play EVE and I play EVE on my new Core i7 laptop all the time. It does not out perform my much older Core i7 desktop system though.

I'm also experiencing issues on the latest patches, but it's very intermittent and changes depending on which system I'm playing on. I'm not worried about them, CCP usually figures it out and fixes it. I think there's a forum just for these kinds of posts.

That was meant to say laptops "can be more powerful".

Suggest you close this post, it's dead.
