I ordered a laptop for $450 with these specs. Is it good for light gaming such as Roblox, GTA 4, GTA SA, etc.?
Processor Type AMD A10-5745M Processor Speed 2.1 GHz (Turbo clock boost up to 2.9GHz) Processor Cache 4 MB L2
Storage & Memory Hard Drive Capacity 1 TB Hard Drive Speed (Revolutions Per Minute) 5400 rpm RAM Size 8 GB RAM Type DDR3L SDRAM
Graphics Graphics Chipset AMD Radeon HD 8610G Graphics Video Memory Configuration Integrated Dedicated Video Memory Size 4224 MB
Windows 8.1
How many frames would I get on each on full settings? |

| That is the kind of computer I have, so it is good for a lot of heavy gaming too. |

| Feline, graphics are in no way bad for a $450 laptop. I'm using an intel family chipset q35 and the GPU on the laptop is x100 better. |

it is bad compared to actual gaming laptops i said you got a good deal
you will be able to run roblox and gta SA with no problem, but you might run into a few issues with gta 4 |

| Feline, I understand that since my laptop's not 100% for gaming, since I was on a budget. Could GTA 4 run on low with around 20+FPS? |

| Alright. I was also wondering since I have pretty low dedicated video RAM on my GPU, will it use that + my laptop's RAM if it needs to? |

| Feline, I searched dedicated video RAM up and it said that if I don't have a lot of video RAM, up to 20% of my PCs RAM will be used. |

i've never heard of that before and the only thing that i can find saying something like that is this
"They often share the same base clock so a 20% on the CPU might overclock the RAM as well and cause problems."
which is talking about overclocking |
