    I have a nvidia geforce 5200 fx on my desktop right now and i am able to play doom3 and hl2 on low settings fine. If I get the hp dv 6000t with a nvidia g0 7400, will I be able to play these sort of games on at least medium settings?What If I had the nvidia go 7200 with the hp dv 2000t, would that allow me to play these games at medium settings also?
    thanks

    The Go7200 will allow you to play those games on medium settings and resolution fine, however I suggest getting the Go7400 if you plan to do gaming. It is noticeably faster than the Go7200.

    The FX 5200 is a pathetic card and is outdated. A modern card like the Go7400 is light-years ahead of it.
