Toshiba Satellite A505-S6033 Review [Part 2]

Got this new baby a week ago, works very good, but the graphics are not so good. I can play regular games, but not graphic-intense games like Crysis or CoD (It runs, just not above 20 fps on higher settings). I think it's a good buy overall, features a nice Intel i7 processor capable of running at 2.8 Ghz, and a entry-level NVIDIA graphics card that's not very good for gaming.
Here are the specification.

Processor: Intel Core i7 720QM [1.6 Ghz/TurboBoost to 2.8 Ghz/1 MB Level 2 Cache/6 MB Level 3 Cache]
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 310M [512 MB discrete memory/about 2 GB total]
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit [Upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit with Windows Anytime Upgrade with this key: FJGCP-4DFJD-GJY49-VJBQ7-HYRR2]
RAM: 4 GB DDR3
HDD: 500 GB [5400 rpm]
Display: 16" HD TruBrite Display [1366 x 768 Max Resolution]

You spoiled child.

@Teh1337Narb Not really. I had to pay about 50% of it [400~ bucks], and I had to beg for it. My parents will never buy me this if I didn't have half the money. Other than that I only have a PSP and PS2, that's it.

@YoutuJ3eJ3lows Wait, since you upgraded to Ultimate, could I have your home premium key?

[YoutuJ3eJ3lows]

@Teh1337Narb No.

Dude it's not good for gaming ? , even if i upgrade the NVIDIA GeForce to a 1GB , Oh yea and No Bluetooth ?

[YoutuJ3eJ3lows]

@2MRY well you can game on medium graphic, and you can't upgrade it, it's integrated. The only way to get a better graphic card is to order and customize it on Toshiba's website.
