Graphics Card Miracle

I have probably the worst graphics card ever. It's the Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family. Which as far as I know, has only 64MB of dedicated video ram.


I was playing Fallout New Vegas and entered an area that I had to load. Once I was done in that area, I tried to leave but the game kept crashing while trying to leave. So I messed around with the launcher settings and eventually put the game to max settings just for fun. Shockingly, I was able to play the game in that area without any lag at all. I don't really remember if it fixed the crash or not or if I ever ended up fixing it.


My laptop is the Gateway M-Series (Specifically the M-7332h)

Either you have a beast processor, or that figure is wrong.

I have less than 3GB and can't run UDK without mild lag.

Corrected for stupidity.

Those are about the same as my laptop. Nothing weird about it.

RE: Graphics Card Miracle

Yep. And you were right when you said processor. Memory card can really mean anything such as Solid State Drive, possibly RAM, maybe an SD memory card.

RE: Graphics Card Miracle

I saw the term RAM and my brain short circuited.

Sorry, it's been a long day.
