I play with textures/effects/shadows on medium, sometimes high or extra, anything else is off. My FPS on conquest is 30-50, on TDM it is 40-60. The model of laptop is 6b10er and it costed for me nearly 900$ (I don't know what is exactly price in dollars, because I bought it in Russia, where I live)
So, I don't think that integreted videocard will give him more game experience.
Dumbass please read back before you talk. I said if he paired it with the same series card that it came with it would run DUAL mode. Virtually double the memory... And seeing as what I said has already been proven several times by numerous people... I think I win.
As for your laptop. It's a piece of shit and overpriced to hell.
900... You have any idea what kind of system you can build for $900? That just cracks me up...
Im sorry, but if you bought a computer then you should NOT be posting in this topic.

The integrated cards on the A8 APU is the mid-end HD6770. Not a terrible card all things considered ($139 for the APU) and another reference card will run just around that figure alone. It can also be overclocked and bumped up pretty good.
Friend of mine has the APU running at 800MHz core. Not a whole lot bumb, but its around 75MHz and still running stock air cooling.
I figure the tech is new, but the products being used are "old" and pretty cheap to get their hands on. Hence the reason they do not cost all that much.
Cant lie... I would love to see a board come loaded with a GTX 580... Id love to see how it was cooled lmfao. Those cards would burn the board right up. Thats the reason they dont. Way to much heat.
