    I was looking at buying this computer:
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16834115246

    Anyways, I've been looking all over these forums and everyone seemed very helpful. I was wondering how this computer would do with games such as F.E.A.R., Doom 3, Oblivion, and Half-Life 2? If there's already a thread on this, please direct me to it.

    Thanks!

    You should check whether the 5672 comes with 256MB or 128MB of dedicated graphics RAM. I believe it's the latter in which case your gaming will be affected.
