    Which game is more demanding? WoW, or Age of Empires II?
    An ATI X700 can handle both?

    an x700 with at least 128MB of memory will handle both extremely well, but the 64MB version will handle AOE 2 fine also.

    no idea on either, but my x700 does AOE III fine, guild wars at 1400-900 (or something) everything maxed with AAx4 on. If you havnt bought your laptop, look to get something with a little more kick though, and if you choose the x700 anyways, get at least 128mb
