I just got a Lenovo 3000 N500 laptop with 2 Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family graphics cards. 256MB each I believe. How good are they for high-end gaming? Are they crap or alright? I'm trying to figure out which card I should replace it with. I'm not trying to get the very best card, but I want to be able to play Quake 4 or Doom 3 smoothly on high. The rest of my specs are: 2.00 gigahertz Intel Pentium Dual Processor, 1.99 GHz 2.96 GB of RAM
hello, Im thinking of increasing my ram to 4GB and Im wondering if that will make an improvment of the performance of games on my laptop ive got a mobile intel 4 series express chipset family graphics card (797MB). Some games run well its just sometimes there is massive slow down. any advice?? Thanks
I have a samsung R710 laptop which i got for my birthday and i want to be able to play good games on it on low quality. it has: 2.00 GB RAM Windows vista home premium Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family intel(R) pentium(R) Dual CPU T3400 @ 2.16 GHz like i said i would like to be able to play fallout 3 or other games and i am able to spend a bit of money on it if necessary but i dont care about the quality any help would be much appreciated.
Scrap it and get a new PC. Intel graphics adapters are not up to gaming what ever you do.

I dont want to get rid of my laptop, just need advice on how to make it faster. I know ram will help. Can you install new graphics cards onto laptops? is it really expensive?
Your laptop doesn't have a graphics card, it has a graphics chip. No, it can't be upgraded. The only upgrade you'll be able to perform on that laptop is more RAM.

You can add more RAM but it still won't be up to gaming

you need a real graphics card to play new games well. It will probably run some games on low-med settings depending on what games. hl2/l4d should run, cod4 might on low but nothing new will run well on med settings.
You could probably play Quake 4 or Doom 3 on ok settings sure.

yes you can upgrade the graphics but you would have to send in the laptop and purchase the chip set from the manufacturer, since special tools are needed to get to the chip and more tools are needed to remove the old one and install the new one.

Intel integrated video is soldered onto the motherboard and can't be replaced in a laptop.
