    I'm looking at buying an Asus Z63A with the knowledge that I will not be gaming much at all. However I am interested in playing Half Life 2 and Call of Duty 2 and wonder if the integrated graphics can handle these games. Playing at the highest settings is not a priority for me.

    Anyone with experience with this Asus?

    I'm not totally sure...but I'm 90% sure the game is playable; just at very low settings... and at low framrates.

    well... very slow.. i'd recommend you getting the ASUS A6VA.. it's about the same price, atleast here in germany, and it's has a x700
