Help Would Be Great!, Thanks! (Game Probs/ Video Card)

Hey i recently bought a laptop, acer aspire 5720.137

Processor Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor model number T5250
Processor speed 1.5 GHz
Processor bus 667 MHz
Processor cache 2 MB
Memory (RAM) 2048 MB
Storage (hard drive) 160 GB
OS Vista Home Premium
Video card: Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) X3100

1. wondering if i can run games which require 2ghz minimum processor, when i have 1.5 x 2 :S ?
2. recently bought kane & lynch: dead men
minimum requirements...
os: vista or xp
processor: 2 ghz
Memory: 1gb ram, 7 gb free (no problem lol)
Video card: 128mb nvidia 6600 or better ati x1300 or better

the game loads up fine, menus are fine, the cutscenes are different every time cuz u can see thru things and stuff...
Game plays awful everything is a light blueish colour except from people and cars etc are nearly invisible and you can see through everything on top of that its a bit slow

i thought i bought a good laptop, maybe the game requires a better video card which i will get if needed but what should i do ?? ahhhhhh
just wana know if its the card thats the prob cuz i no built in ones are crap even though this one ment to have t&l still dont sound state of the art does it, intel graphics media accelerator... :|, i hope dual core 1.5ghz is enough to run the game, should be its the new technology lol, hopefully its jus a video card i need

3. Can video cards be easily installed into laptops?

Thanks alot!! help appreciated!!

 

1. Yes.
2. The X3100 is an integrated card that can't be upgraded. You won't be able to play many of the new, graphically intensive games.
3. RTDS, NYCUYVC

 

1: Yes...it will be able to run.

2: Turn down the game's graphics settings to low, and try it then, it will probably run better.

3: No, video cards cannot be installed in laptops with intel graphics.

 

cheers...

lithus.. 3. RTDS, NYCUYVC??

okay well i turned everything on low same problem lol...

I'm thinkin of buying nividia or ati graphics card ... cud i use these with the laptop?

 

It's a "notebookreview.com" specific acronym made up for just your question.

3. NO

 

why not ?

thats a bummer

 

integrated cards are built into the motherboard. almost all notebooks cannot upgrade their videocards. they are not like desktops.

 

Grammar and literacy are fading quickly with the new generations.

 

The reason the game looks like garbage is because that video card was created to be only powerful enough to surf the web and check e-mail, and play 5 year old games, not current gen 360 titles.

Integrated graphics = nono for games, sorry bud

If you want a gaming laptop you should have got 2+ GHz Dual Core 2, 2GB RAM minimum, and AT LEAST 128mb of dedicated VRAM, at new games on low-medium.

 

okay fair enough i get it now well i was guna buy a ps3 so no probs stil crackin laptop for everythin else, who wants to buy kane and kynch dead men for ermmm £20-25 got it yday haha ?
