It would be really great if you could give me an advice on whether Nvidia Go 7600 or Nvidia Go 7600GT will do its job in the gaming field. I don't mean hardcore gaming of course, just running latest titles on the 15.4' screen with the decreased settings possibly? Any ideas? My other parts will include the T7400, 2GB of RAM and 160GB 5400-rpm hard drive. Thanks in advance.

What company is the laptop from? Most companies will be updating their systems with Centrino Pro and the GeForce 8*** cards in June. Wait a month, you will get better performance.

The 7600 isn't a bad card. It can play most games decently (except Oblivion). I would wait a month though, the 8600m looks to be a fairly competent card.

The 7600 has 8 pixel per pipe while the 7600GT has 12 pixel pipelines

yeah, so i kinda had second thoughts on that one and i think i can actually afford the 7900GS and a 17" screen. I don't think i'll be able to get the Centrino pro tho, and the 8*** series from Nvidia doesn't look that good to me in a sense of raw game performance. I am not talking about video playback quality or anything like it, cauz i ain't gonna be using my laptop for that anyway. So would you say i better stick with 7900GS for now and upgrade a couple years later? Or should i def wait until 8600GT comes out?

Personally, I would wait and at least see how the new cards do in benchmarks (you shouldn't have long to wait now). If you wan the laptop now, go for it.
