May also be suitable for a cheap short term replacement to a faulty card in more advanced systems, but at a significant penalty to high quality gaming...

This is helpfully complemented by 512Mb of memory and a generous 160Gb hard disk. The memory only takes up one of the four slots on the motherboard, so you can easily add some more at a later date.
The Pavilion comes with a 128Mb ATIRadeonX300SE graphics card. This might struggle with some of the latest 3D games at high detail levels, but it's very capable of dealing with anything else. I've used it with a few games and it handled them all brilliantly so until some new games requiring superior...
