I dunno bout playing Portal, If you're CPU is a quad core the fps effects wont be huge whilst running FRAPS, if it's a duo like mine it'll suck. Also since its on the source engine it shouldnt be too demanding so you're GPU wont need to be amazing so i'm sure you'll be able to run it fine without fraps but with it you might run into some difficultys.
Also i'd like to see some TF2 Scout gameplay because Scouts are the best class ever. Btw you should just get a new gpu and you'd have a decent rig

Well my summer job should take care of me getting an entire new pc. Laptops arent the best for gaming, or upgrading, so im working on building me a desktop.

All i'll say to you is go with AMD for you're processor, Intel is much more but better for editing and stuff, AMD is same performance for gaming for cheaper price and if you're not doing exceptionally demanding stuff (3d work etc) AMD is perfect, i'd look into the AMD 1100T Black Edition, really good price and 6 cores. If you're wanting to go with intel, an i5 is good for gaming. I'm getting an i7 2600k just because i'm gonna be doing 3d work soon. GPU is you're choice i guess but ATI always looks better to me unless you're interested in PhysX which is pretty bad ass, tbh. For you're monitor make sure you do some research and choose the right resoultion etc, you dont want a high res monitor and a weak GPU as you'll get terrible FPS.
