I need to buy, within the next day or two, a laptop for school. My price range is in the ballpark of $700, and for that money I would be very disappointed if my machine was unable to run new games. The issue I am running into is that, whenever I see shared video memory (and the intel hd 4000 chip seems to be very popular), I scream and run. Consequently, I am having difficulty finding good deals. Should I consider shared memory? Or am I correct in thinking that dedicated video memory is too important to sacrifice?
