I know the graphics is integrated, and I won't be able to change it, but I'm working on building a proper gaming PC at the moment anyway.

Seems good for the price, yes?

I'm on http://www.amazon.co.uk/Fujitsu-Siemens-Laptop-Esprimo-V5535/dp/B0012NIYT8, so anything I guess, is a step upward...

It should work fine.

it's an insult to call that a gaming pc with such a terrible integrated video card. slap a 9800gt or a 260 in there.

Nice laptop there with decent specs for its price. Unfortunately if you live outside of the US (like me) then expect to have $100+ slapped on for UPS International shipping

It has a GeForce GT 425M:
1 GB VRAM DDR3
Direct X11 and Shader 5.0

Bugsy, ikr.

It's a decent PC, but I wouldn't call it a gaming PC.
Hey, though - it'll be about a thousand times better than my current pile of crap.

If it weren't for the graphics card, I would actually REALLY want it - but then again, with my low budget rubbish, won't seem like much to most.

One good point about the graphics card - at least people have heard of it! I am currently using a SIS Mirage 3.

Hm...well, 330 pounds is pretty good for that rig. If you have money left over, definitely upgrade to something close to a 9800GT.

I reject your stereotype of Wisconsin and, in fact, live in a city.

I was thinking that.
Didn't really think I'd find something with power like that for that price, and it's pretty small too, so rather portable.
I've decided once I've saved up, I'll buy it, then, when I can afford, I'll try to get a good card in there.
