It should do good for photoshop, but I would get it a better processor. Running CS3 with a high resolution would be better with a better processor.

TF2 won't run on that, heck at that resolution my desktop may start to struggle although I haven't tried it at that resolution.

Just save up, no laptop under £1000 will game well at that resolution.

Oh he wants to game at that resoution? No, that might do 1280 but not above that..

What about Counterstrike Source?

If not, would 1440 x 900 do?

I had a similar laptop except I had the 8600M GT, and even that could barely play TF2 on low-medium settings @ 1440x900. CSS would run on it with HDR disabled, and probably on medium settings fairly well though.
