I wouldn't be so sure about it, after I had a bad experience with a |
| 11 |
17-inch Fujitsu Siemens AMILO Xa 1526, which had an NVIDIA GeForce Go |
| 12 |
7600 - 256MB DDR2. Powerfull graphics, but also a *very very* big heat |
| 13 |
source. Plus, although the laptop was built in Germany, its airflow |
| 14 |
design was totally inadequate to dissipate the heat even when the |
| 15 |
graphics card was not working under load. |

Under a load it was only a matter of minutes before it would crash. |
