How many polys or vertices do you think would run OK in one level on this (Alot, medium, little)?

Dark Game bonanza
DBpro 7.4/7.5

Display:
NVidia GeForce Go 7600

Computer:
ACPIx86 based PC

Disk Drives:
FUJITSU MHV2200BT PL ATA Device

Processers:
Intel(R) core(2) CPU T7200 @ 2.00 GHz
Intel(R) core(2) CPU T7200 @ 2.00 GHz

Can my computer run alot of polys/vertices at once or not very many?
Thanks! (hopefully I gave everything you guys need to know to tell me)

I want coke, not Pepsi!

Why don't you run a benchmarking program?

There's one floating around these forums somewhere - just search for it and you'll see for yourself how many polygons you can handle.

(As well as that, you should note that HDD speed makes no difference to the performance of your PC, it just means things take longer to load, so as long as what you're trying to do with lots of polygons doesn't require constant reading/writing from the HDD you can disregard that spec.)
