It is capable for a laptop, I had one and I could play games like Planetside 2 at 40fps on medium settings. I was able to play Crysis 2 at lowest settings but the framrate was unstable 15-30 and it eventually burned out the chip. I played this with a quad core i7 haswell and 8gb of ram Asus n550jv. It is capable of playing most current games at ok settings if paired with other decent hardware.
