    You shouldnt have too much of a problem. However that 4570 with DDR2 is going to hold you back.

    My guess fallout 3 1024x768-Medium?

    Fallout3 and Witcher may be a problem, both pretty taxing and the notebook specs look good except the 4570 is a class 2 GPU, ie 64bit memory bus. Slower than the Geforce 9600m GS. ( Geforce 260m or ATI 4850 has 256bit memory bus)

    Maybe with all eye candy, shadows, water reflections etc turned off, although would expect big slowdowns during parts of the games.

    For those 2 games would reccomend G51 or G71, played both on G71 without a hitch.
