I currently have a Sony notebook that have the original Intel HD graphics card and I was wondering that will the new Intel HD 2000 be any better on performance on games? Like will games run noticeable smoother or will it not make much difference when playing games like The Sims 3 or Crysis. This is for my current Intel HD graphics card not the 2000. Right now when I play Crysis everything on low on my game graphic settings I get mostly around 22 FPS and high as 30 FPS. Some areas it can go low as 14 FPS. For The Sims 3 everything on low I get around 105 FPS and low as 90 FPS.

U will notice a slight difference in performance but if you want to game do yourself a favor and get a laptop or desktop with a dedicated card

Dude, it's not worth playing these great games on LOW. It's like watching a big blockbuster action movie on a 22'' Black and White TV.... Do yourself a favour and upgrade to a desktop (or a gaming laptop)

Well I' am in a budget so that's why I was only able to afford a $600 notebook. I have a Sony notebook and it's really nice but just was wondering if I had the Intel HD 2000 would it made a difference but it looks like it will make the game run little better. I would assume the Intel HD 3000 would even make it run more better then. But I know I can't upgrade notebooks video cards so oh well. But just was curious that's all.

It will not make much of a difference since Intel HD video devices are not dedicated video cards and are not meant to be used for gaming.

Like the other poster said above me, Intel cards are not gaming cards....you need NVIDIA or ATI cards inside a gaming laptop.

My advice is play less demanding games while you save for an upgrade...

You could have built a pretty decent desktop for $600 that could have run most games on high or max.
