    The X3100 is not a gamers card. You would be better off waiting for the nVidia options coming to this model.

    Well I guess it depends on what kind of games you want to play and whether you care much about playing at higher resolution and settings. The X3100 should do well on most games 2 years and older and you should even be able to play some newer games at lower resolutions and settings.

    i wouldnt limit discrete video cards to gamers only...lots of graphics people enjoy the more powerful cards as well. I dont play games but need it for photo and video editing...
