    I cant decide which laptop with theese graphic card to choose from. I am afraid to take the 1600m since its not supposed to be a gaming card and i am not sure what to do. Please help. P.S. if i decide to go with the 1600m will it support all the dx10 game features and everithing ?

    --- laptop with 7900 is toshiba sattelite p100-10p
    --- laptop with 1600m is hp HP 8710w GC123EA
