    Hi elvis82,

    Welcome to the forum. Can you say what graphics card does it have, so it may be easier to answer your question? Many people don't know exactly the specifications of every machine.

    Cheers,

    that'll play those games. It won't play BF2 on highest detail settings, but it will look decent though

    Hi,

    Sorry for delay, I had to check some numbers. Yes, medium settings and lower resolutions are probably to be expected.

    Cheers,

    Yea... the sony-s series are quite nice ultraportables! I love the Go6400... much better then the "intel solution." The Bo6400 should have no problem playing most modern games. Won't be able to run all at max, but most games it will do very well on.
