Its not much to go on. all u've said is that its got lots of ram, a large hard drive and a dvd writer

U haven't said the speed of anything eg processor, ram, dvd writer, graphics card.
Not enough info to say either way, it could be complete shite or feckin brilliant

eh??? what graphics card is this? Is it some really obscure one for graphics designers??? Why 720MB instead of 768MB?? I've only ever seen a 256MB graphics card on sale where did u get it from or have u made a slight error????

futureshop as in futureshop in canada? I'm sorry i don't believe you've got a 720MB graphics card, either u've made a mistake or u're lying. the product number isn't the amount in megabytes u know.

I am not a pro. So its just for internet, couple of games, songs etc.

I want to upgrade my computer, but again i suck and have very bad luck :'(

I'd recommend looking around some more and spending a little more and getting something with an AGP 4x non-integrated graphics card.

Ok i don't understand whats going on, but the bottom line is that the card u have is can't be a top of the range typical graphics card. It would be impossible to have 720MB of the same kind of ram as they are using on top end graphics cards because all the major players in the graphics card business are having huge problems cooling even 256MB. The 720MB must be referring to something else tho i have no idea what. I must admit i am curious as to what exactly u do have, if u ever find out some more info on it please tell us more. ;)

thats more ram than most people on this forum probably have as system ram. :lol:
on ma desktop ive got 256mb and ma laptop i have 384mb, 32 of which is graphics at the mo.
so even combining them i get 640mb, :lol:
i bet the memory probably runs at 3ghz, and the gpu runs at about 20ghz :lol:
