[QUOTE="netizen, post: 99749"] Frank, Your GPU, like mine, is ultimately powered by the CPU power. While TPA looks good on my laptop it's pretty sluggish. Most tables run around 15-30 FPS, with a few exceptions. I tried everything I could think of to improve performance right up to, and including, setting windowed mode at 640 x 480. Your CPU is a little more powerful, and your GPU has a bit more juice so you may get bare minimum play, but I think that the minimum you've going to want to look for would be an i5 CPU with the same integrated GPU; that set up has been reported as working. Your i3 might be just a little under powered, imo. The only way to know 100% for sure though is to run TPA unfortunately. Frostyglitch says he picked up [URL="http://digitalpinballfans.com/showthread.php/5469-Lowend-Spec-Laptop-Working-Well?p=96420&viewfull=1#post96420"]this laptop[/URL] at Frys for $300 and it runs TPA acceptable.
