    Say for example i play test drive unlimited alot , and on my midrange ati x1400 i much prefer full anti-aliasing , 1280x800 resoloution and all setting turned to max with a 25 frames per secconds , compared to the 50 odd that i can get with low resoloution and all settins minimum.

    Heck i will play a game at 10 fps , as long as it looks good and is at a high resoloution

    This is my order of preferances genrally
    1High resoloution
    2Anti-aliasing 4x
    3Anti-aliasing 2x
    4High texture settings
    5High shadows/reflections

    I cannot play a gamne at a low crummy resoloution , I have to use 1280x800 minimum.
    Whereas on my desktop with 2x "Sapphire X1950Pro 512MB DDR3 Dual DVI VIVO AGP Graphics Card" I run all games max settings and get brill FPS . but i much prefer my laptop , I just wish it had a better GPU.
    Perhaps ill upgrade in the next few years as its a mmx one :)

    True im like that too, Im more for Details... I mean resolution vs settings is huge.. I mean some lappies fall to their knees on one resolution up, I hear some games fall 70% just by upping the resolution vs settings...
