    Got this today in a Sony Vaio I got as a replacement for my Advent 7096 with an x200 (openGL support is so poor I had to return it)

    Can't seem to find any reviews on it online or benches. Anyone got one, or at least know how they perform? I'm not positive as I don't have the laptop in my hands yet but I think it has 64mb dedicated and the other 64mb taken from system memory. (Its possible its 128b dedicated with 128mb optional though, again, not sure until I see it)

    I'm guessing it will run new games on low-medium....

    New games will run on low, I doubt medium.

    Yeah, I think low-medium was a bit optimistic :D

    All I will really be playing anyway will be Call of Duty United Offensive and Soldier of Fortune 2, which should easily run at full res.

    But it would be nice to run Battlefield 2 at a playable level as well.....would 1024x768, with textures, shadows, lighting and geometry all on low and 100%view distance be too ambitious? I think this'd be managable....I'd say this go card is a bit better then a desktop 6200 turbocache....

    The Go6400 is better than a desktop 6200, but I don't know how far that will get you in terms of performance.
