Your laptop is CPU heavy instead of GPU heavy.

My laptop is also CPU heavy i.e. 45 watts for CPU with 26 watts GPU. Looking back, I would flip it around i.e. my next laptop would be GPU heavy.

Anyway, Skyrim at ultra setting with AMD Radeon 6490M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CytuzdoRVPU

Skyrim at high setting with AMD Radeon 6490M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8n85rborSIQ

Low settings at 1024x768 it will run.

GPU is bad.

Note that the outdoor scenes has frame rate issues.

For http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CytuzdoRVPU

I run on Ultra,1280x720p resolution I turn shadows down to low or medium. 4xAA+no Af/ or/ no AA+ 16 AF which ever you prefer. DONT FORCE IN CCC and use multisample if you DO use AA. Also make sure you right click desktop, select configure switchable graphic and select the TES.exe file so it uses the High performance GPU

On some cases, I don't trust notebookcheck i.e. they are not the only ones with multiple laptop hardware and different drivers can change the playable threshold.

For example http://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Radeon-HD-6250.40958.0.html

The statement "Modern games like Starcraft 2 or Battlefield Bad Company 2 are unplayable..." is wong. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBfDl314rgE and I have the actual Radeon HD 6250M hardware.
