I guess that I can give a try and see how the games work (especially on medium settings, definitely not high though) and if I don't like it, I can always bring it back and get my money back, right? So...

Or would that be possible to ask a company to get me a different card, even that there is no choose option for the different card...

Depends on the company and their policies. It's always a good idea to ask questions beforehand, especially when it comes to return policies. Make sure you can return your purchase if you think you might need to do that.

Ok thanks, would it run Fifa 09 well though?

Here I found the specs of that game - http://ea-fifa09.blogspot.com/2008/09/fifa-09-pc-system-requirements.html

EDIT - It appears that this kind of card must be in between 9400GT and 8500GT, http://www.nvidia.com/object/graphics_cards_buy_now.html right? Thanks again for any help.


I've been running the FIFA09 demo on two of my three desktop systems for a few days now, and it gives me terrible framerates on my 7800GS but great framerates on the 8800GT. To keep things experimentally controlled I ran everything at maximum settings.

The 7800GS puts out inconsistent framerates ranging from 10 to 32FPS, while the 8800GT destroys it with 40-50FPS.

So yes, it will run on that kind of card, but I don't expect you'll be running it at full eyecandy (maybe medium-high settings?) and 30FPS because it's basically a mobile 84/5/600GT-ish kind of card.
