Ok this might sound silly. Im need to buy a laptop for uni work. However, i would probably like to game on it. If i do it will just be a few games of Dawn of War online.

Integrated cards reduce the price massively so i was just wondering if Dawn of War would run well on an integrated card, probably the 256MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3450.

Many thanks, peaks

TBH I think you may struggle mate, the min specs below say x1800 or 7800 to run and from the link below your integrated card falls below that.
Worth a try though ;)

graphics minimum spec: Video card: 3.0 Shader Support recommended. Nvidia Geforce 7800(R) or better or ATI Radeon X1800(R) or better

Toms hw grouped that card with: FX 5900, FX 5900 Ultra, FX 5950 Ultra, 6600 (128-bit), Go 6800 (128-bit) 9700, 9700 PRO, 9800, 9800 PRO, X700, X1300 PRO, Mobility X1450, X1550, Mobility X1600, Mobility X1700, HD 2400 PRO, Mobility HD 2400 XT, Mobility X2500, HD 3200, Mobility 3450

Im pretty sure I used to run Dawn of war just fine on an old mx4000 with a AMD 1800 processor. If it wasnt that rig it would have been the next one which was a AMD2800+ and a FX5200 (although im fairly certain I was running it on the earlier rig as well).

That was the original dawn of war though, by time I got the expansions I was running a far better machine. That said the graphics didnt improve much with expansions, and they arent the most demanding in the world.

edit:

Doh just realised Ive replied to an old thread thats been dug up...
