    You had a notebook with a 7300 and CoD4 ran well?? Seriously?

    In any case, the HD2600 will outperform the Geforce 7300 by a very large margin. It is a much better card than the 7300, although it does struggle with newer games such as Crysis.

    dito, get the one with the hd 2600, it´s way better than that old 7300, and the 8400.

    Never judge a Graphic card by how it runs Crysis.. No card can run Crysis above 60 Fps.

    So to the OP.

    HD2600 is much better.

    7300 will run Crysis at 10 fps on lowest possible settings.

    & 7300 will struggle even with COD4
