The answer is no.

Both are worthless as far as running games is concerned,You need to change yout track entirely and only look at laptops with good video chipsets,there are plenty out there

251221 2004-07-23 00:44:00 Would you consider using a FX5200 or a 9200 in your desktop system yingxuan? The mobile version are even worse than the desktop versions. Laptops really arent designed to play games, it might be a good idea to wait for the new nvidia MXM spec to arrive atleast that way you could upgrade the video chipset at a later date.

If you must buy now have a look for something with a P4 and a Mobility Radeon 9600.

251222 2004-07-23 00:54:00 Further to the above laptop graphics are often underclocked to keep the power use lower, and prevent heat.

Google has many reviews and they suck in comparison to desktop systems.
