That game most likely means video ram, not system ram. Nothing you can do about that.

And T9500 is too small a bump to worry about. Any quads fit in that lappy?

It may not need 2GB of video ram, but many will easily use more than 1GB. GTA4 comes to mind immediately.

WOW! Nice System 9.5/10

Rate my new CPU/Motherboard/Ram.. It's low end, but good OC potential.

i say 6.8/10, but your location is an Air force base and judging by the specs its a micro ATX or mini ITX system, so odds are physical space was a concern. not a bad setup in that situation.


edit: yep, ITX. so lets boost that to an 8.5, in the ITX category.
