Hey guys, was wondering if an Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500m card can run this game? If so, how well and how high could it go? I'm not that good with computer specs so please help a fella out. :)

I have a ThinkPad X61 Tablet with 1.8 C2D CPU, GMA965/X3100 Intel graphics, 4 GB RAM, 64-bit Vista.

Tutorial Millenium City is playable at 1024x768 at lowest settings; FPS feels like 10-20. Once you hit crisis Canada/Desert, there's a lot of choppiness; FPS feels like < 10. During end-of-beta destroid fights, a couple of times I lagged out or else the computer locked up; FPS was a slideshow, felt like 1-3 FPS.

Your X4500 is the next step up from my X3100, so it won't do much better. I hope you aren't planning on playing Champions Online with the X4500 long term. (Maybe you have a new computer or parts coming?)

Thanks for answering, well actually I was planning on buying this laptop for sale. I'll be using it until I can save up for a better system, maybe a desktop. What do you think?

What are you using right now? What kinds of things do you plan on doing with this next computer? Do you need a notebook? Is your plan to have a notebook and a desktop eventually? Knowing these answers will help me give you better suggestions.

That computer you linked, for what it is, is about $150-$200 overpriced.
