Intel GMA 3100

[Yueri]

So I'm getting a new PC and thinking about playing PSU AotI on it, because the ability to take pictures in-game is very tempting...
Anyway...

It comes with the Intel GMA 3100 graphics card. I've not exactly heard good stuff about it...
But will it allow AotI to even run?

I'm quite a n00b about it.

I'm not looking for awesome results or anything... I just want to be able to play it.
I still got my good ol' PS2 after all. So...

But if that graphic card is a no-no, what would you guys recommend?

I whould recommend a laptop with a GForce 7M or higher or a ATI HD one if you have the budget of getting one with those graphic cards in them.

I'm NOT getting a laptop.
Heh.
I just don't find them practical to my needs.

My bad, thought you was getting one, but i still recommend the name of the graphics cards intergraded if you get a desktop.

well my laptop has that gma 3100
and it seems fine at 640x480 I will try at 800x600 on medium settings and see if it crawls

if its in your budget, get something from ati or nvidia for graphics

find out if the pc can be upgraded, via pci or pci-express for a better gfx card

on my laptop with the gma 3100 with frameskip 1 (the rest were the middle setting's defaults)
at 640x480, there are hardly any slowdowns,
at 800x600, there are more slowdowns, more than 640x480

I only tested it solo, not with a full party or npcs

this was output to a monitor at 1680x1050 (may have caused slowdowns )
