Just got this laptop.

http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/retail-product.jsp?poid=443169

Intel Core 2 Duo T6400

3GB SD Ram 320 GB HDD

Vista

Im totally clueless about computers...Is this a good computer? Would it be good for gaming? What kind of games would I be able to play on it?

If its good for gaming I might just switch to pc gaming from the ps3

Useless laptop, integrated graphic cards are never good for gaming or for any serious laptop user.

no its not.I suggest going for a desktop they are ten times better and you can upgrade them for a long time untill a new system is needed.I would suggest pc gaming to ps3 cause games are 10 dollars cheaper new and there are alot more games out there for the pc than the ps3.

Don't suggest a Desktop, he's asking for a laptop. So you should give him laptop recommendations

If you want a nice laptop that will even run Crysis on high settings with 60fps look in my sig, they are available at bestbuy for a little over a grand. They are ASUS G51 laptops i would give it a 10/10 for the money you pay for it i love ASUS.

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9415019&type=product&id=1218101172646 this laptop is freaking awesome for the price. hd 2600 video card will work just fine for most games. also $550!!!! unbeatable for a core 2 duo laptop with 4 gigs ram and a nice graphics solution.

ummm sims 3 is optimized for low-end PCs as well. Nobody said he could max it on that laptop, but I bet he could play it.

Usually you ask if a computer is good before you buy it , not after .

ask first, make a decision later. getting stuck with a netbook that, although it could surf the net, could (literally) only play games in DOSbox was not very fun.
