    Hello..

    I want to get a ATI Radeon HD 2400/2600 for my VAIO CR11GH laptop as the Intel X3100 graphics accelerator is bad for 3d games... can't even run hl2.. :(

    So i'm asking if its motherboard (Intel GM965) is compatible with the above graphics cards.. or anything else (GeForce Mobile?) which is decent enough to run hl2 at medium with a high framerate.

    Specs:
    Processor
    Core 2 Duo T7100

    Processor speed
    1.8GHz

    Motherboard chipset
    Intel 965GM

    Centrino
    Yes

    Amt of RAM
    2048 MB

    Hard drive
    80 GB

    Graphics hardware
    Intel GMA X3100

    Amt of video RAM
    251MB

    Max Screen resolution
    1280x800

    OS
    Vista Home Basic

    Thanks.
