    The 7200 go also supports Nvidia's Purevideo features (which significantly improve DVD image quality) if you want to watch DVDs.

    Bottom line is that you can run any game you want (possible exception: Oblivion), but don't expect anything but lower settings in the latest games. Get a better card than the Go7200 if you care about 3D graphics.

    Imagine the old GeForce 4 Ti 4200 except with Shader 2.0 and 3.0 support...

    That's pretty much describes the Go 7200

    Scores around 8k in 3d2001, 2.7k in 3d2003 and 1.5k in 3d2005.

    Meaning that popular games such as WoW, War3, CS:S and Fear should run fine at medium/low settings. (Well at least my Ti4200 could)
