    Well, I'm getting a new laptop from lenovo, and this is the best card I can find that they offer with their notebooks, so the question is: Is this card any good? I would want to play some games, like BF2, possibly some others too. I know that everything else can handle the games, I'm just worried about the gfx card.

    I doubt it'll be much good, but if it's your only option, you'll just have to find out...

    Yea, that was the fastest card that they made for the lenovo series... I heard that it's close to a x1600? Is that true?

    To be honest Waymon, I've no idea, I didn't even know there was a Mobility version of the FireGL series.

    According to the notebookcheck benchmark listings, it comes just above the Mobility X800 and X1600 and Go7600, and just below the Mobility X1700. You could do a lot worse, I suppose, that really isn't bad. I'm told you should expect a score of around 2000 in 3dmark06.

    Goodgood, if you can post it's 3dmark06, i'd be interested, especially to see if it's near to what that website predicted.
