    I'd just stick with the intergrated gpu, and save up a few months, and then go buy a better video card.
    As long as you have enough ram, the gf4mx should play just about everything, maybe not at the highest resolution, but good enough. The 7000 is getting so old now, I wouldn't recommend buying it, just wait and save the money.

    Thats what i was thinkin cuz Im gettin around 200-230 buck soon(CDN) and was gonna but more ram and a new video card. If i just buy more ram then save up a bit longer i gues i could get a better card.
