    So i was thinking maybe ppl with HGL 30 would enter some info on what games they have try'd and what spec's they have run @ .

    I play'd F.E.A.R on max 1024x..... with no shadows and newer fell under 30fps avrg was 45~(with 450/365) and 84.88 drivers.

    the Chornicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay I'm downloading it right now il put some specs for that also.

    Also if u guys have any screenshots it would be awsome :)

    Yust installed BF 2142 W00T!!!! absolutly no lagg on absolutly maximum settings ^^ im falling in love with this laptop allready . gotta love this eye candy :p

    I just installed and played the C&C3 demo. Seems to run great. I didn't check framerates, but it ran without any perceptible lag, at 1280x800, 2xAA, high details on almost everything. I'm too lazy to post (or even take) screenshots, especially since I'm running in Linux right now on it, and not on wall power.

    BF2: Plays well on high detail.

    Rainbow Six: Vegas have to play with low settings.(might be medium...)

    Supreme Commander: Only way it doesn't lag is with all settings on low except for fidelity which is medium(because low doesn't look good at all). However, with 8 players on a large map it lags big time.

    And I have Core Duo 1.83 ghz and 1 gb ram.

    I play Day of Defeat (half life 2)

    With it I can max out everything (except AA and Anisotropic filtering) and it runs awesome (60 fps consistent)

    I run supreme commander maxed, with shadows off and no AA at a very NEAR (not at the notebook to check) native widescreen resolution. Pretty decent, but I also have 2gb of ram which is probably holding you back.
