Ati Radeon x1400 on laptop

[abu_has_the_power]

will this be able to run css and bf2? how good is this compared to a x850xt?

Piece of shit.

Expect WAY below x850xt settings, yes it will run them, but at prolly min-med settings with lagging fps.

Good luck playing oblivion on that mate.

1gb DDR2-667 Dual-channel
Radeon X1400 mobility
Default clocks, as-shipped drivers.

shit! i really wanna play css and bf2 on my laptop

should i just go ahead and get intel onboard 950? will it be able to run programs like maya and autocad?

[Seedler]

yah integrated graphics are fine for pretty much everything else other than gaming and intensive video editing.

Either get a decent GPU or just go with integrated, cuz the 1400 is a waste of money.

i did some research on extremeoverclocking.com. looks like the x1400 can play css and bf2 fine. i'll have to tone down bf2 a big, but no prob. the integrated 950 will not be able to handle heavy 3d modeling and heavy cad use, which will be a must for me.
