    So I've been playing bf2 on an old dell desktop

    2.0 celeron
    1g ram
    128mg fx5200

    It has a little lag but I've been able to live with it.

    i just bought the dell e1505 (T2500, 1g ram) with the 256mg x1400. Should I see a big difference in game performance with this card?

    Thanks guys!

    I was concerned maybe I should have found a notebook with the x1600 but I got such a good deal with the e1505 ($750 coupon) that there would be a considerable jump in cost finding something with the x1600.

    I fell better now! :D
