I currently have an ATI Mobility Radeon Xpress 200 series card with 128mb dedicated memory. It's in my 3yr old laptop. I'm now looking for a new Laptop for under £500 but I want to improve on this graphics card. Is that possible for that kind of money?

Thank You

You're in a tight budget, but it really does depend on the game. What are you going to be playing?

I'm looking for a new laptop anyway but one that can play Sims 3 would be ideal. Is it possible on my budget?
