    I'm not a big fps gamer unless it is something like borderlands, or mass effect. I'll be playing a lot of diablo 3 and torchlight 2. Will the gimped gpu do ok for me if I don't mind playing at 1600X900?

    It'll play. The difference is maybe a 10% FPS loss, especially at the lower resolution

    10%? I wasn't sure how much the loss would be since it would be running at a lower resolution. Thanks.

    Maybe... depends on the game really. You prolly won't feel it.
