possible or not to play modern video games with tsis laptop

Have not played anything like battlefield 4, but I have played Skyrim quite often on here with graphics settings on Ultra High and absolutely no lag. So I would say the possibilities are very promising.

yes it comes with a moderate graphics card and a good amount of ram. the graphics card is upgradeable

Sorry, I really am not sure as I bought it for my sister as a basic computer. I'm also not familiar with the speed and RAM memory requirements for those games, but would think it would be a risk as the video graphics engine is built into the mother board and may not have enough video memory to give a good smooth performance as this is a computer with about 10 year old technology.

i think you can. but i'am not sure. it is better to get a the newer better labtop's to be able to play those kind of game's.

Definitely not. There's so much packed into such a limited computer that watching videos is pretty impossible. Gaming depends on the game. The more advanced, the harder it is to use. School work works just fine for me, however.(:

You would have to pirate the game or use a peripheral CD drive. Check the running specifications of The Sims game you're trying to play - the laptop may not be powerful enough

I do not know, nor can I test. The company site reports only supporting Windows applications, but I use it plug and play with a Linux OS without problem. It MAY work with gaming systems since some use a version of Linux to run, but no guarantees.

You can usually find system requirements for video games on Google. An old version of The Sims probably will play on this laptop if it has the ATI X1300 graphics card with 64 MB of Video RAM. I have American McGee's Alice on this laptop and it plays very well. Here are the system requirements for "The Sims 2": The Sims 2 Recommended System CPU: Pentium 4 or Athlon XP CPU Speed: 2 GHz RAM: 512 MB OS: Windows XP / Vista / 7 Video Card: 64 MB 3D accelerated video card (NVIDIA GeForce3/ATI Radeon 8500/Intel Extreme Graphics 2 or better) DirectX version: 8.1 (included) Sound Card: Yes Free Disk Space: 3.5 GB DVD-ROM: 8X DVD-ROM (This game contains technology intended to prevent copying that may conflict with some CD/DVD-ROM, CD/DVD-RW and virtual drives.) The Sims 2 Minimum System CPU: Pentium III or Athlon CPU Speed: 800 MHz with a T&L capable Video Card (2.0 GHz without Hardware T&L Video Card) RAM: 256 MB OS: Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/Vista/Windows 7 Video Card: 32 MB 3D accelerated video card (NVIDIA GeForce2/ATI Radeon VE/Intel Extreme Graphics or better) DirectX version: 8.1 (included) Sound Card: Yes Free Disk Space: 3.5 GB DVD-ROM: 8X DVD-ROM (This game contains technology intended to prevent copying that may conflict with some CD/DVD-ROM, CD/DVD-RW and virtual drives.) This laptop is too old to run modern video games.

i have an earlier macbook pro and play X-plane 10 on it. I don't see any reason why not.

Nope, you can go VGA, or go home with a Toshiba Satellite. This is your run of the mill, bare minimum system.

Yes, but not at 100% graphics settings. I tried TF2 and it ran perfectly at 100% detail, but that's not a power-hungry game. I also tried GS Global Conflict, and it ran well at 75% settings. For more recent, powerful games, I'm assuming they'll run well at about 50%. That sounds bad, but the games are still great at 50%. I'd go with this, and when your budget allows, upgrade the GPU. For another comparison, I've done some video editing with this, and blows my 6GB dual-core laptop away. A 15-minute HD video takes more than 20-minutes to output on the laptop, and about 4 minutes with this PC. Not bad at all.

I have a Dell Inspiron notebook that I use it with. I have only used it to run other types of programs, haven't tried any games. Probably would depend on game specs if it would satisfy the requirement.

I'm afraid not. The technology in this computer is too old unfortunately. I bought one specifically to run older games and software.

I am not 100% positive, but I think not, if so, like the previous responder says, probably wouldn't suggest getting this one for that usage. its more for game playing and internet perusing.

Yes you can, it uses MST, which is not dependent on os, just video card/drivers.

I tried it with COD: Modern Warfare, and Battlestations Midway. It ran those older games just fine.

I suppose it depends what you mean by "well" but considering it has integrated graphics rather than a dedicated video card and only 4 gig of RAM, I would say no. I have not tried to run these games so I cannot say for sure, but this is certainly not a gaming laptop. You could check the minimum system requirements for the games you're interested in and find out for sure.

i don't use those games etc. so i really don't know. otherwise the computer has worked very well.
