    I know I know this machine isn't built for gaming. But its just amazingly hot.

    Has anyone had on hand experience with any of the games? NFS... GTA.. FIFA... Ghost Recon... How bad is the quality and frames?

    ps. I mean with the Nvidia Go 7200.

    My ATi 200M IGP could run BF2. (800x600 low settings) It was pretty comfortable in my opinion. Didn't feel like I dipped below 20 fps. But then again, I was playing offline.

    What I am more curious about is whether or not this lappy can run FEAR comfortably. (I'm asking this because my GeForce 4 Ti4200 could and seeing how the benchmarks are pretty much similar).

    Could anyone with the dv2000t download the BF2 Demo and FEAR: Combat (which I might add are all free) and report back?

    yes yes. and nfs too. please? i would be in debt for anyone who does that. oh a plus for ghost recon. but i doubt that game would work since my 6600GT is struggling a bit with that game.
