I'm limited in my knowledge of computer hardware, so before I make a purchase I wanted to bring a question to those who know the equipment better than the salesmen themselves.
To start, I'm a simple gamer. I have an obsession with World of Warcraft and Blizzard games, and my wife enjoys playing Sims 2.
I am getting to purchase a laptop while on a budget and right now I am eyeing the Dell Latitude 131L with the following specs:
OS: Windows XP Home Edition
Mem: 1GB DDR2 533 MHz SDRAM, 1 DIMM
Vid: ATI Radeon® Xpress 1150 256MB HyperMemory™
HD: 80GB HD (more than enough space)
Optical Drive: 8X DVD+/-RW
Wireless LAN: Dell Wireless 1490 802.11a/g Dual-Band Mini Card
Will this video card smoothly run the above mentioned games and be practical for basic web surfing? (Also out of sick curiousity, do you think I could run Oblivion on this machine?)
Thanks in advance,
-RRFish
