Question about this computer & it's video card?

Well I am going to buy a Dell Xps Studio 16 and the video card is a ATI Mobility RADEON® HD 3670 - 512MB. But what I want to know Is if i wanted to play some games on it would it be a good card or will it not be so powerful because it is a Mobility card. But would it be able to run CS:S, TF2, and The Sims 2 & 3 all at descent stings if you could help me figure this situation out because I would like to buy it soon since shipping as I hear takes about 1 month. If you could help me Out I would appreciate it. =D|||Yes it will definitely run those games i'm fairly confident even at full settings. As long as the rest of the computer is up to scratch.|||Can you buy a laptop with nVIDIA GPUs?? Because IMO, NVIDIA is much better as it has PhysX and CUDA, with the former being great for games and the latter being great for everyday purposes.



I see that the XPS studio 16 costs around $1700. Spend an xtra $100 and get this alienware baby. It sports a 9800M GT, which is WAY better for gaming. Although you'll get less storage, but still a great buy. Specs below.
