post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
Hi all.. New to this forum and i am after some help.. I am after a laptop for gaming and everything purposes.. mainly i want to be able to play the games that are out now and future ones..

i have seen this Acer Aspire 5102 WLMi in the UK for £569.95 with these specs below

AMD Turion 64 TL-50 1.60 GHz Processor
1024 MB DDRII-533MHz SDRAM - Low cost double memory offer – call for details!

The problem is the G/card
ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 Graphics are these any good i have tried doing a google on them but just basicly get the info they are excellent.. i want to know if its worth while spending this cash on a laptop that wont do what i want.??

If this card is rubbish, does anyone know of a good laptop that will offer better G/cards for around that amount??

Cheers for any help you can offer..

Just to make sure that you are not going to make a mistake. What games do you want to play? If it's Half-Life 2 or Far Cry you will need an ATI x1400 at minimum.

By the sound of it the ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 Graphics is an integrated chip, so I wouldn't expect much of it.

Don't buy it, I regreted bying it, if you need nice video card go for Nvidia geforce 7400 or better.
