Could someone that has this onboard vid card for their laptop please list out the latest games that are playable and look half-decent on it? I know it's useless crap etc. I just want to hear someone with first-hand experience with this thing
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Graphics-Cards-Benchmark-List.844.0.html it does suck bu ta great improve over Previous GMA3500 a improvent that get it near : 8200GS while GMa3500 was near a Gefroce 6150 Onboard :P
I am looking into buying a laptop that has this as it's video card. I know this is integrated, but the laptop has 4GB of RAM so would using the card slow down my CPU drastically. Would anybody be able to tell me if I could run games such as WoW, Sims 2, Spore, and Civilization 4 smoothly on a laptop with this graphics card? I would hate to run these games on all low-setting so would I be able to run at least some of them at medium and have them still run smoothly? Thanks is advance!
I have an Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset family. I do know that Civ IV works good. So does the demo for Sins of a Solar Empire, demo for World In Conflict, Fable: The Lost Chapters, and World of Goo too. :P

When you are playing those games, what graphics settings are you running them on? And @ imprezawrx I wish I could get a laptop with a 8600GT in it, but it doesn't fit my budget!
Simular bench's to the 8400gs, so i'm guessing that itll run cod4 on high because i was on a 8400gs. then again i was using the desktop card so it might not be as good for a laptop.

Civ IV I'm running on high on all settings. Fable I'm running low as the frame rate seems to take a bit of a hit with them really high. Don't know about Sins though.

Just to clarify, you are playing all those games using a Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X4500HD? If so, then the laptop I'm looking at is perfect for my gaming needs!
Its not that bad, i have used the X3100 and its a surprisingly capable chip, just has some big flaws Overall, for a cheap laptop, its going to do a lot. The minute you put a dedicated nVidia or ATi GPU in there, even if its weak, the price of the system is going to shoot up.

laptops aren't good for gaming , not to mention you are getting a crappy video car for it. Can you post the rest of the laptop's specs?
