i got 4 gig ram, 2ghz processor, my fps likes to drop from 100 down to 50 during battle, and garbage like that, figured i may as well get something that doesnt suck because my desktop is gone

well my laptop is actually TOO good for jka, since it doesnt have the inherint libraries to run it, i have to use a external dll, wich slows it the fuck down with all the textures, wich is odd since i can run Crysis and BC2 with no problems at all. anyway, with that ram and that processor...yeha a medium gfx would do, since if you want to renovate your pc, you might as well buy a new one altogether, including gfx. i recommend a nVidia, before the 200 series if you dont wanna waste too much money. if you wanna run other games, more up to date, sth above 200 series.

i have an integrated card which i guess means you cannot remove it, is there anything i can do to get around this major design flaw, or am i doomed to shitty jka(a new computer is out of my price range) and this is a laptop i thought i said that in my title but i guess not

oooooh laptop...right, you cant change that. sorry. You COULD, but you might as well buy a new laptop if youre gona do that. its complex, risky, and costly. a new laptop for 700 bucks gets a nice machine. real nice. specially if you know where to look and what to look for.

i was expecting like a 100 bucks for a new card, snap open some shit plug it in, and get back to jka, 700 bucks is ball busting, jka is awesome, but not THAT awesome.

you cant really custom hardwarize a laptop. laptops are built as a whole when they are designed, unlike desktops wich are built piece by piece, with the mindset of possible piece swapping(unless its a fucking Macintosh).

Also, with a new laptop, you're not just limiting yourself to JKA.

WELL SINU, next time yo buy a laptop, always buy a dedicated gfx card. Chipsets will allow you to play ZERO games.

wierd though, i have a intel integrated gma950 card with only 2 gb ram and a 1.5ghz processes, and i could play JKA without a problem ( anything newer than JKA though cannot be played, excepted for CMD edited minecraft!~~) but yea, if u wanna get a laptop for games, i recommend looking through laptop specs and finding one with Nvidea card in it

Maybe not everyone was raised with a golden spoon like you Cog, and actually has to sacrifice some luxuries to do a living.
