    It's an old machine equipped with a 540m, which isnt that great card, even ivy hd4000 does better than that.
    It's cheap but maybe you want to look somewhere else.
    IMHO is not worth.

    The HD4000 isn't faster than the 540m, actually.

    It'll run the games you listed, but it's still a terrible value. Look into spending a bit more and getting the Sager NP6165 or any other notebook with at least a 640m.
