I've got the X3100 in my IBM Thinkpad, has the C2D T7100 CPU and Quake 3 runs very well, Max Payne 2 ran decently, Doom 3 I have not tried but I know from forums that it runs poorly, so you're going to want to stick to old games or low-spec newer games.

I also believe it can handle Warcraft 3 and WoW, from what I read. HL2 (but not with the newer engine running HDR) should be fine.

It's not a gamers card, but it will suffice for basic 3D apps and older games.

My very OLD laptop can't even handle Warcraft 3 properly (on Wintermaul TD map in totally freeses at level 29). Stupid 845 chipset
