No I do not.

Hello and thanks in advance for your help. Im currently looking to build a cheap gaming desktop which I'd like to run me around $500. In the future I would upgrade it a bit, but for now I just want something that can run most games at good settings.

that laptop has a dedicated graphics instead of integrated.So i should be able to put a graphics card into it

er so im screwed.SO should i just max out the ram ?And can i just get another 512graphics card to add to it to make it 1024 graphics memory or it doesnt work that way?

Hello basically i wanna know is can this laptop play most games such as crisis and empire total war at the least med to high settings.IF not high or medium what can i buy and add unto to it to increase its performance such as ram graphics card etc.Im kinda new at the whole computer improving/building

Hey guys and thanks for helping.Basically i manage to get my 3rd laptop.1st was just screwed up from the get go so i got money for it from circuit city due to the fact that i sent it in for service at least 10 times whileunder its 2 year warranty.Well i got an hp dv67810us and that had its own problems(everything i bought from circuit city had problems)so eventually it stopped working couple days after the warranty and they were charging me 500 dollars to fix it.So i decided might as well i get a new one my dad gives me some money and a i got 200 dollars for the laptop at laptoptraderexpress.com.So i bought this laptop (link below).Well i wanna be able to play alot of stragety games and some mmorpgs.And i was wondering to try out crisis hearing so much about it.So i asked someone about it who it turns doesnt know much about computers cause he said integrated was better than dedicated overall and he basically said that he it wasnt good.Well i heard alot of good reviews on the computer so i bought it anyway and it should be here any day.So im wondering what should i do to increase the performance of this.And what are the compatible graphics cards that are good to add unto this one,Sorry for the terrible grammar and misspelled words.And again thanks

Im pretty sure Kratos would take Soras keyblade and beat him with it. While making Donald and Goofy watch. Then he would go after Mickey for fun:)
