Default ATI Radeon HD3470 Graphics with 256Mb Dedicated Memory??

Hi everyone, i wanted to find out if anyone knew how good the ATI Radeon HD3470 graphics are for gaming. I saw somewhere that someone said they got 23 frames per second with it but i saw someone else say that its bad for gaming. Ive got a desk top with quad core, 3gb ram and nvidia geforce 8400gs gfx card and i did a bench with the trackmania nations forever game and it said i got 23 fps so does this mean that i will get similar graphics with the ATI card? The lap top im looking at is the toshiba A350-20s.

Thanks

Hayley

Laptops are not really for gaming. It's an "okay" card and beats integrated, but it's much more cost-effective to upgrade your desktop's video card and buy a netbook. Regardless, the 3470 should be similar performance to your desktop.
