Very low-end graphics.

Microsoft Windows 8 Professionnel
GPU: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series
RAM: 2811 MB

This is a horrible program though. I was just looking at the scores and they are just ADDED and don't properly indicate gaming performance.

For example,

Score: 1408
Intel Core i7-4930K 3.40GHz running at 3401MHz
Microsoft Windows 8 Pro
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN
RAM: 32709 MB

Score: 3417
Intel Core i7-3970X 3.50GHz running at 3501MHz
Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan
RAM: 32199 MB

Explain that one too me, even accounting for frequency differences.

Nearly IDENTICAL CPU architecture, minor frequency difference, same amount of DDR3 memory and both rocking TITANS but one has a score that's 2.4x better?

Anyway back to YOUR LAPTOP:

*You have a pretty low-end laptop for games, especially the graphics. If you hunt around however, there are some games that would run okay.

Angry Birds is one example. Not making fun. I think there are games lists for low-end or laptops. I know TORCHLIGHT #1 even has a setting for that in setup. You could get the DEMO for that game and see how it performs by running FRAPS at the same time (with VSYNC OFF for the game).

Steam might have a few games that would work okay but I just don't know. If I can find any links I'll pop them below.
