Yes, definitely upgrade the graphics. That Intel chip won't handle any new games... It might play something like Gothic 1/2 ok, but don't expect to be able to play Half Life 2 or Fallout 3 etc. Honestly, you won't regret going for the 1GB card. Also, if you have a look at the special offers on <a href="http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/computer_can_series.do?storeName=computer_store&category=notebooks&a1=Brand&v1=HP+Pavilion&series_na me=dv6t_series">this page</a>, then you might notice a free upgrade from 2GB of RAM to 4GB and a free hard drive upgrade from 250GB to 320GB.
