    Was just wondering as I was thinking of getting a portable notebook while I wait untill I decide on what gaming machine to get. Has anyone tried to play Age of Conan on a Dell 1330 witht he 8400 gs nvidia card? I saw the minimum requirements of age of conan at ebgames.com and said the minimum to play it was a 128 mb 6800 nvidia card or better. But I never rely on those specs listed on retail shops.

    So I would rather have someone who actually tried to run and play Age of Conan on a dell 1330. If you did run it, how was it? Was it running smooth? And what settings?

    Thanks guys, any input will be greatly appreciated and be given rep +

    not really , if it can I will buy it again but unfortunately the GF84GS with 128mb GDDR3 is not good enough for the particular game.

    Age of Conan has reportedly had high system requirements so I doubt the 1330 will have the juice to play it.

    During beta I had mixed performance results on my M1530. I really think it would be a futile struggle to get AoC running decently on the M1330.
