Well, it will run WoW, even my laptop can run that, but Oblivion? From the looks of that game, even when you turn all the video settings down, its still gonna need some grunt, and from what I have seen, the X550 don't got much

I have never used one, but don't expect it to run Oblivion well, and from the look of things, we will all want to see Oblivion in it's full glory [img]smile.gif[/img]

Although I am generally an ATI man, the best card I see there is the MSI NX6600GT, though there are are a few better out there, but the 6600GT should at least be able to play Oblivion.

If you play alot of games though, and want alot of power, you would be better off buying your own card, and there are plenty of people here that can help with that.

Though I am curious as to why they are offering both AGP and PCI-e cards....
