    Hello.

    I've been looking for a cheap laptop for surfing the net and playing older games such as World of warcraft, CSS and perhaps Oblivion. I think I might've found a good candidate:

    CPU: Intel T2250
    Memory: 2gb Ram
    Graphics card: GO 7900 GS 512Mb video card memory

    I know the graphics card is good, but would the processor become a bottle neck?

    It seems ok, the processor wont bottleneck a card like the 7900GS, especially the GO version.

    Laptop looks pretty good, good enough for WOW and CSS, not to sure about Oblivion though...

    Yeah a Go7900GS will handle oblivion, not max settings of course, but pretty high up the scale if you use a resolution like 1280x800.
