Thank you very much for all your advices
so I understand, I must not use MB with built in graphics
but what about :
"And about MSI, well that's a totall different story. GO FOR ASUS!" ??
In the past I had both Asus and MSI MB and I noticed no difference... they
are close, (Asus little bit expensive)
BTW I like very much asus (my laptop is a an asus 3000D amd xp2000 but with
very poor sis integrated graphic, not even 3D...
the MSI K7N2 Delta-L is at 66 euros
GeForce FX 5700LE 128Mo at 114 euros.... :-(
I think I will forgto to play doom3, since I red so many critics (Tom's)
that says it is not the FPS we excepted
I'll concentrate on UT2004
even my GeForce 2 MX400 64 MB is enough for mlinimal gameplay
Thanks for your fast answer
Ciao
