C&T 69000 video chip

[Knuckles]

On the laptop I will have soon, there is a graphic card called C & T 69000 (Chips & technology)with 2MB on it. I found drivers for XP but the problem is , what kind of video card it is? what about the 2D and 3D performance? Is it good or bad as Sis and intel?

"C & T 69000 (Chips & technology)with 2MB"

Just judging by the sound of it, it wouldn't have good 3d preformance. I mean with only 2MB of video ram, you will not be able to run pretty much any current 3d games.

maybe but it still must have a kind of 3D, a video card with 1MB can use some 3D fonctions. Maybe not playing ut2003 or Vice city but this laptop is more for working or to listen music than playing huge games (the one I have currently is only made for this). But just curious about some "no name" company like this one.

Well, you can get away with older 3D games (DOOM, Duke Nukem 3D, and other DOS games, and some older games for Win95).
Well, for a guess, 3D games made before 1997-98 may work somewhat OK (not good).
But what games do you want to play on this laptop?

Finally, I found some info on it:

I you want to read all this, please tell me what kind of card it is?
