Question:
GMA 950 / Ati 1250 Games ?
Hi,
I've been reading through lots of information on integrated graphics the last few days but still slightly puzzled at what these chipsets are capable of. There is a nice guide on this site for the 6150 with screenshots and fps values from varying games but I haven't so far run across the same for the other chipsets.
From what I can tell the GMA950 in a macbook can play Halflife 2 and indeed I have seen WoW runnning well on a friends macbook, but some PC games forums seem less positive about those same games on a PC with GMA950. Therefore I started looking at slightly faster options - the Samsung R20 with Ati1250 being one.
Can someone give me an idea of what the GMA950 & Ati1250 can run 3d wise (preferably having actually tried them on a laptop themselves).... :confused:
I've listed several games below of varying age. Assuming both machines are running coreduo cpu's - Which will work playably with a) the 950 and b) the 1250 ?
(Playable to me is 25fps+ without AA/AF and gfx settings tweaked down if needed but pref at full screen i.e. 1280x800)
Half Life
Quake 2
Quake 3 engine games
World of Warcraft
Half Life 2 ?
Thanks :D

Yes they will run, but not very beautifully. You've got to turn down Eye Candy, and your resolution. But yes it will run.

I play a lot of Tiberium Wars with my GMA950 on medium settings with minimal lag.
