    # RAM - 4 GB - DDR2 SDRAM ( 2 x 2 GB )
    # Graphics - NVIDIA GeForce 9700M GT - 512 MB

    everything in low. I have the same Acer, and I can't play Far Cry 2 or Left 4 Dead on anything but low.

    Same with Crysis. Don't listen to those who say you can play it on medium. I HAVE THE LAPTOP.

    Because of that, I decided to upgrade from the 9700M to the 280M. With the 280M I can play all these games on high.
