    Very light gaming. The X3100 is an integrated GPU, as opposed to a dedicated GPU, and is thus very weak compared to a dedicated option. Search the forum for more info on this GPU (there are many threads on it), or post questions about particular games here.

    You can read through this x3100 gaming thread too.

    It will run games made around 2005 and older fine.

    ranger14123, please don't cross-post (posting the same thing in more than one spot). It's against the forum rules. You posted the same thing here: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?p=4360427#post4360427

    Continue discussion there.

    And spradhan01, use the edit button to add to your post instead of making 2 at the same time.

    Thread closed.
