The Quadro series are not designed for running games, laptops are also pretty poor for running games on and they seriously under-perform in bus latencies and speeds.

The Quadro series is designed for professional applications, such as rendering etc so they perform badly in games.

Since this is a laptop what you get now is all you'll ever get, so if you want to play the game easier you will have to invest in a good desktop or laptop, a desktop will run at about £400/$500 and a good laptop for games will run at least £800/$800 and probably over 1000.
