That being said, The Lab (System Requirements) is a *usually* reliable source, although they are occasionally *very* wrong.





First things first - "Most games do *not* support mobile chipsets."


Next, if they run, you most likely will be able to play them, although with a weak card line the 9600M, I doubt you'll be able to play Dragon Age for one at anything higher than medium. Also, with the 10/100 LAN card, any MMORPGs or similar games you try to play will have noteable lag, although not normally unplayable.





Good Luck!|||I just typed this off to another user seems you could benefit as well

Choose the Can You Run It option and follow the directions to find out the answer to all your system requirements needs.





I use it it's the best I can find.


Try it|||most definitely, you can even get away with running Crysis on low settings @ around 50FPS. Most likely medium to high settings for all games in question except dragon's age. you might have some trouble. just fyi and good luck!
