I'm getting a cheap laptop for my 10 year old brother (for school mostly) but on a tight budget. Bought this from bestbuy:
ASUS X540LA 15.6" Laptop (Intel Core i3-5020U/ 1TB HDD/ 4GB RAM/ Windows 10)
He loves playing minecraft though, and he's always playing on his iPod Touch (yes, iPod touch.) I would like for him to play on a bigger screen and with a proper keyboard. My question is, will minecraft run ok, or be damaging at all to the computer? It's a UMA integrated graphics card and I'm not sure if running minecraft will be damaging to the graphics or overall performance of the computer? I actually don't know much about computers, so not sure if it even works like that. If it will damage the computer I can always let him play on my computer, but kind of a hassle cause I'm usually using it for work.
