Cheap laptop for spine ~250$

Wedrownik

Hello

I am looking for a cheap laptop for the Spine, which will be useful for some small projects during the travel.
All I need is to run Spine, unity and make some small things.

During my research, I met a problem, that cheap laptops have integrated graphics cards which don't support open GL 2.0 what makes problem for Spine.
I thought that maybe someone of you is using any cheap laptop which runs the spine.

What do you think about LENOVO ThinkPad T430 with Intel HD Graphics 4000 ?

Cheers!

Sorry, I don't have a laptop suggestion. I just wanted to say OpenGL 2.0 was released 15+ years ago: September 7, 2004. That is a very long time in the computer world and really should be supported everywhere by now. I'm surprised you found even a very cheap laptop that can't run Spine. Maybe it didn't have the latest drivers?

Wedrownik

I borrowed a laptop with the Intel 965 express chipset family graphic card but nowhere can find any drivers. Installed some basic which I found but Spine still shows me the error about chipset.

Nate

The Intel 965 express has a GMA X3100 IGPU which does support OpenGL 2.0, but you're right it's difficult to find drivers. Intel seems to have abandoned it. Windows update might have something, but I guess you tried that. I wouldn't trust 3rd party sites, but I found this from Dell:

Thanks for your help. I think that I tested that driver and received an error because of compatibility. Its for Win7 and I have Win10 there but for sure I ll check it.

I ordered Lenovo x240 with Intel HD Graphics 4400. As I read, it shouldnt have problems with OpenGL 2.0 and should be able to run Spine.

Hi! I think intel videocard will not good work with spine.

An Intel HD Graphics 4400 is plenty good for Spine, unless you drive multiple external 4k monitors with it. But that's not a Spine issue, but a general issue with that integrated GPU.

Here are some recommendations for laptops that should be able to handle your tasks:

Acer Aspire 5 - This laptop has an 8th generation Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM, which should be enough to run Spine and Unity. It also has a Full HD display and a 256GB solid-state drive, which will help with performance.

Lenovo IdeaPad 3 - This laptop has a 10th generation Intel Core i3 processor and 4GB of RAM, which should be sufficient for running Spine and Unity. It also has a Full HD display and a 128GB solid-state drive.

HP Pavilion x360 - This laptop has an 8th generation Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM, which should be enough for running Spine and Unity. It also has a Full HD display and a 256GB solid-state drive.
