hello wanting to get a laptop that is capable of using archicad, the graphics card that it is supplied with is a Nvidia geforce 8400, is this good enough?

GS has also posted a Wiki article concerning video cards for AC 12 here:

http://www.archicadwiki.com/Video%20Cards%20for%20ArchiCAD%2012?highlight=%28CategoryHardware%29

8500 listed there, but not the 8400 - which does not mean that it does not work, only that it was not tested...

I have a nVidia GeForce 8400 GS at home. I havent really tried it out with AC to see how it performs.

I'd like to go to Alienware and just pick the highest price stuff
