Laptop Advice

Oh, you might want to upgrade the graphics card though ( PC world do them quite cheap ) if you're watching movies or playing games in better quality.
 
Yeah should be able to run the new FM well, don't know the system requirements of FM but its normally 1GB RAM, of which that laptop has 4 times as much so should should be find in that area.

Upgrade cost depends on how good graphics you want to upgrade to, or how much you are willing to spend. For £30 you can buy a decent graphics card - but I'd recommend this for £50 - will give really good quality.

Of course though, you can spend ridiculous amounts on GFX cards - just depends on what you want out of your computer really.
 
I thought the idea of an 'integrated' graphics card was that it's 'integrated' into the mother board and therefore can't be replaced?

Integrated graphics cards are cr@p, and any graphics-demanding games will be unplayable. But with 4GB of RAM, multitasking and playing FM should both be a dream.

Erm, it's a laptop. Why would you recommend a desktop graphics card as an upgrade....?
