    hi,
    I was wondering is this notebook good for playing games like knights of the old republic, command and conquer generals?

    i'm pretty sure this graphic card can handle it. I'm just guessing, because i play wc3 and rise of nation without a problem. I have heard taht command conquer general requires far more graphic rendering power. This graphic card, for those who dunno well, is a 128bit, 8X agp intergrade 64mb. it is pretty good.

    I don't think that the notebook will be able to play these games. I have an Averatec 3220 that uses the Via/S3G Unichrome video subsystem and the notebook is unable to handle 3D graphics, even with memory set to 64MB. It can handle simples games like Civilization 3, but not sophisticated 3D games.
