Video card for laptop?
128MB ATI RADEON(R) XPRESS 200M w/Hypermemory
Can that card handle some gaming on a laptop paired with athlon 3200+ and 512 ram? Thanks |

Some, but not great. I'd get more ram, hypermemory cards share system ram in addition to using its own ram.

Keep in mind that the Xpress 200M is an IGP. It says it has 128 MB, but although I haven't researched this, I'd be very surprised if any of that is dedicated memory. It will likely perform roughly on par with the Intel GMA900 IGP, which is to say pretty marginally.
