Need help on a decision

rothlsbrgrfn · 06-22-2007, 09:28 PM

I'm in the process of getting a laptop. It is an HP dv6000t series, and I am customizing it, and the two graphics options I have are the integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 or a 256MB NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400. I would like to be able to play some fairly heavy 3D games on my laptop. Could somebody possibly compare the two and recommend which one I should choose? Thanks.

Hey rothlsbrgrfn,
I would advise you also to get the 1 gig of memory, as there is a choice. Not sure if you know this, but will be handy when using the heavy video games.
Good price on it!

I'm actually gonna go for the 2 gig memory, but thanks for the tip :-)

Good. THe GMA950 is pretty weak, so the Go 7400 is a decent chip. Look for the 7600 or even better the 7600GT.
