Game Playability on Intel HD Graphics
Hey guys, I just bought an HP dv6-3236nr with Intel HD Graphics. I was wondering whether someone could tell me what version of the integrated card it is? Moreover, will it be able to play some games like World of Warcraft (especially the new expansion Cataclysm). I don't game much on the laptop, but I'd like to at least play that, Football Manager, Europe Universalis III and Rome and Medieval II Total War. I'm slightly scared that my laptop won't be able to handle it, as my older one could (it had an nVidia 8400M GS). If my current laptop does not play the games, what alternatives could I have? Would it be possible for me to purchase a discrete graphics card? Or should I return the machine and perhaps get one with a discrete graphics card? I appreciate any help.
