    It depends.....

    Do you do a lot of heavy (or actually even light) gaming/video editing/photo processing?

    Because if you do, these graphics will be absolutely useless...



    And BTW, just so you know, I'd wait a bit longer for the new Ivy Bridge computers to come out, because these Sandybridge ones will be reduced to nothing....methinks... (_;)

    Really? Because my PC also has an i5 processor with 6gb of RAM and I can play Starcraft 2 on medium settings with a smooth frame rate. I think it'd be able to handle video editing with ease.

    You're living in the dark ages, Intel HD3000 is actually pretty good.
    You wont notice a difference in photoshop unless you use the gpu accelarated features, which I dont use on my i3.

    You can do light gaming also.

    Intel's onboard graphics never come close to "pretty good" to me. Dedicated graphics is a must for me personally.

    So saying an HD3000 is useless for image editing is correct in your eyes?

    It is not useless. You at least need a graphics card (dedicated or not) to get things to work.

    The HD3000 works, but it only barely does the job.

    It does not have dedicated ram and the performance is significantly slower than dedicated graphics.

    For example, when you are using photoshop, having a nvidia or amd gpu does give you the advantage with better graphics acceleration.

    If you want to play games then it has limited use, if you type hd3000 and the name of the game you want to play on youtube you can sometimes get an idea of how a game will run using that GPU, for example >

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1uK9ZoQ84U

    Bear in mind it's getting on for 5 years old that game, but it can give you an idea.

    Here's Crysis 2 >

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g00Y5K-SE-4

    The example above is using a desktop cpu not a laptop cpu, so it can be deceptive as some people have overclocked the GPU.
