gaming on the new x201's?

What kind of games do you think will be possible with the i5 processor and 4500mhd?

I was hoping for monkey island and civ4. Anyone know of good games that have a low processing footprint?

 

I know civ 4 works on my T400 while using the ati card, so you should be fine with that as long as its a smaller map (since even my desktop struggles with large ones. Stupid single-threaded games).

 

Warcraft 3 works brilliantly (even at 1680x1050 on my T500).

I think the Core i5 processor's integrated GPU is more powerful than the 4500MHD, though, so even more games should run quite nicely.

 

warcraft 3 is pretty old.... i was playing that 7 years ago using P4 laptops.

 

Worked on my CULV Acer 5810 on the intel x4500 integrated

 

You should be able to get away with games like Command and Conquer III, Company of Heroes, Age of Empires III. First person shooter games will run, but how playable they are will vary from game to game, especially if you're looking to run them in multiplayer modes. It's a good possibility that games like COD4:MW or MW2 will probably run at less than 30fps (150+ desirable for multiplayer).

 

im not interested in shooters. I mostly like light and humorous games.
