I'm buying a new laptop to take to college and while would mainly use it for word processing and surfing the internet I would like to be able to play some PC exclusives and RTS like SupCom. I looked on new egg buy couldnt get any laptop with a Nvidia 8400GS or better for around 800 dollars. Looked at dell but its overpriced so I went to hp. Do i need more than 2 GB of ram? Is a intel 1.73mhz duo core enough to keep games playable or should i get 1.83mhz. How is the 8400GS at when playing games at a pretty low res with medium detail? Is HP a good place to get a laptop? Is this a good value for 800$. Thx for any help you can give

My old computer is on its last leg for me but I would like to give it to my parents so they would atleast have something. I need to speed it up a little bit so would 512mb more ram help? Current specs are 2.53mhz single core ATI 9550 and 512mb of ram. It runs well but tends to slow down when multi-tasking any advice would help.
