[QUOTE=''1337wii1337'']Could it run some light gaming on XP like half life 2, team fortress 2, WoW just light games.[/QUOTE] WoW is light enough, but it's too crappy of a card for anything more demanding than that. NVIDIA GeForce 8400GS Is it any good?
So TF2 Is out of the question? what about every thing on low?I will upgrade later this year when the 9800 comes out.
I wouldn't touch it,i'd get this,great budget card :Dhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102708 Should run WoW and HL2 on high,not sure about TF2.

Still crap (any 8400, matched to any combination of other parts). You can't pour on enough fancy perfume to take the stink off.
pure crap...you need atleast a 8600gt or hd2600xt nothing less for those games....if it was just wow you could survive but not for hl2

You could build a computer with the 2600XT for around $550. It may seem hard, but it's not really. It took me less than an hour to build my first one. There's an innumerable amount of guides online in order to help you if you're intimidated.

[/QUOTE] You caught me; it's what I recommend in most cases. Even on your low budget, you could still do it. I'd certainly recommend it over getting an IBuyPower. However, if you're set on a prebuilt, head over to AVADirect.com and see what you can get there.

Hey guys just so you know, my brother has a 7400go and it can run oblivion on medium just fine...just saying maybe the card isn't that bad.
That is your opinion, a good friend of mine baught a computer there a couple weaks ago and he said its working fine and doing what he wants it to do, and i seen his computer, it runs really really good.

I've heard far too many horror stories about IBuyPower to keep me away for good. I've heard only great things about AVADirect.com, on the other hand.
