    I have looked for benchmarks on this card and really couldn't find any. Im still confused about whether its dedicated or integrated. I also looked on the big list of video cards and this wasnt on there. Since im upgrading from a 7150m, do you think the performance increase will be noticable? Im just looking to play games like css and dow. How well would it handle those? thanks

    The Go7400 is a dedicated card. It is several years old; it originally debuted in 2006. It's not going to be much of an upgrade from the 7150M . . .

    CS: S it can play at 1280x800 high settings. Don't know about dow though. Anything older it should run fine.

    Why are you 'upgrading' to a Go7400? Any laptop that has that must be old.

    The W7J is the more expensive Asus line. What's your budget anyway?

    I have the 7400 (see sig.). Wished it was at least a 8400. Even an ATI IGP HD3200 would beat the 7400, serious.

    The latest I've played is Red Alert 3. Couldn't go anything higher than low coz of the buggy game engine (at least it's better than very low setting). I "think" I've played NFS Carbon on med-high.. Warcraft 3 on high, but due to online matches, had to set it down to medium to reduce delay. CS Source on high. Can't remember all of them. Haven't tried any DX10 gen games (that has DX9 version) yet.

    Cool thanks. How much better do you think it could perform if I overclocked it?
