Mainstream/Mid-range Graphics Cards (highlighted in green):
A clear step up in performance from the low-end cards, these cards are good enough to play the latest games at medium settings and resolutions give or take, but do not expect blazing performance. These cards are fine for the occasional gamer, but if the prime intent of your notebook is to game, you won't get spectacular performance out of these.
Mid-end cards do not produce a large amount of heat, and therefore, can be found in smaller notebooks around 13.3-14". However, they would be more common in a larger 15.4" notebooks.
The X1400/Go7400 are the replacements for the X600/6400.
Performance Standings: The two newest cards in this segment are the Go7400 and the X1400. Of the two, the Radeon X1400 is slightly faster when compared to the GeForce Go7400. Either will provide comparable performance, but the X1400, due to it's higher memory bandwidth (it has a full 128-bit bus vs. the 64-bit one in the Go7400), will perform better at higher resolutions and settings - again, the difference isn't huge, but might be noticable to more demanding users. You can't go wrong with either card.
What games can I play on these?
Unlike the low-end cards, these actually have a chance at the latest games. You can play HL2/CS:S fine, along with Far Cry and games similar to that. BF2 will be fine at medium-medium-high. FEAR is where these cards will choke up, but it's going to be playable at lower settings and resolution.

Performance Graphics Cards (highlighted in red):
The Performance cards are designed for 3D gaming on a mobile level; you don't have to get a huge desktop replacement in order to have one of these cards. They do not produce a huge amount of heat, but don't exactly run cool. Battery life is balanced. A notebook equipped with one of these cards will see noticeably lower battery life when compared to one that has integrated graphics.
Performance-class cards are great for gamers wanting fast 3D performance in a mobile form factor. These cards are capable of playing the latest games with no problems, at close to or maximum settings and a balanced resolution. Typically, expect to see performance cards in a 15-15.4" notebook.
The new GeForce Go7600 is replacing the current generation Go6600, and ATI also has the X1600 as a replacement for the current X700.
What games can I play on these?
These cards are what to target if you want to play games at good settings and resolution. They can handle just about everything on high settings (at various resolutions, depends on the game), the Go7600/X1600 more so than the Go6600/X700. FEAR would be decent on a system with one of these cards as long as you have a good amount of RAM (1GB+, 1.5-2.0 is best). An X700/Go6600 can run FEAR at high settings at 800x600, the X1600 and Go7600 can do the same but at higher resolutions. It is advisable to get a Go7600/X1600 over the Go6600/X700 because they will be better able to play newer games.

Ikzou denk ik voor diegene gaan dus met de X700.. Vooralsnog maakt dual core niet veel uit als je gaat gamen, pas bij multitasken komt dual core tot zijn recht.
