Anyone have Portal? - GeForce 8400 now installed!

Hooray! 

F.E.A.R is a slow loader at the best of times, but this should improve when you get the extra memory. I don't foresee any problems with Portal.

You'd be surprised how usable 640x480 is with the right game. Doom 3, Quake 4, Prey, The Chronicles of Riddick...the balance between resolution and effects means you can set them to 640x480 and ramp up the effects and other options to maximum.

I'm really glad to hear all seems to be going well

FEAR was a heavy hitter for my system too, but I suspect some shoddy coding. Portal ran more smoothly, so if the luck keeps up, you'll be able to run the demo fine. The 512 extra RAM should help a little as well.

Good luck and glad to hear things are working out!

I played COD4 in 800x600, as long as you have anti-aliasing turned on, it really looks fine.
