ATI x600 gaming limitations?

Oct 12, 2005 3:18AM PDT

Thinking about buying an ASUS W3V with ATI x600 64MB (hypermemory claims to get it to 128mb).

What kind of gaming limitations will I have with that graphics card? I am not really into the graphics intensive games, like Doom3, but I do like some less resource intensive 3D gaming.

Does hypermemory really work?

If ASUS or the dealer will not answer this question can you imagine the answer to your next question?

Walk away while you still can.

-> I'm seeing today's laptops do quite well at 2004 era games. The usual requirements of current drivers, 512M RAM and such still apply, but most do just fine.
