No, Intel HD grapics, and it an HP. Can you build one? Also could you tell us a budget.

Choose two of the following please:
Gaming
Cheap
Laptop
No Intel graphics, 5400 RPM isn't very good and I think the processor is somewhat old. What's your budget and would you be willing to build a desktop? If so do you have a mouse, monitor and keyboard? For $500 you can run BF3 on max settings with the right build.

I'm back from my eternal slumber of 2 or 3 months. A long-ass time.
Oh boy, visual basic. I can barely contain my excitement.Not.

Good brands for laptops are asus, msi, lenovo, and if you need a very high end one, sager.
Keep in mind that laptops in general are not good for gaming, only get one if portability is necessary.
I meant build a desktop, should have said that.

I wasn't doing it for OP, I was taking Marx's accidental challenge and trying to make a build that could max BF3 fore as little money as possible. Obviously I would never pair a Pentium with a card that powerful in a serious build.
My accidental challenge made me go back and see how much of a deal I really got with my computer...
Mine was fantastic when it was bought in 2009. Now? Not so much.
I got mine for 350. It has 6 GB of decent RAM, a 2300, and had a 6450, which I upgraded to a 6870 for 150. I also put in a new 750 Watt PSU for 60ish, I went high so I could use it in a future built. The motherboard isn't that bad either, has a fair amount of SATA ports and all the normal features. It also came with a 1TB Barracuda. So all around it was a good deal.
CPU: 3930k GPU: 7990 PSU: TX850Wv2 Case: HAF X Cooler: H100 (I like it) HDD: 1 120GB for start, and 6TB for storage. Mobo: Asus Rampage IV Extreme RAM: 16Gb
Would you rather want intel hd graphics 3000 (shudders at the thought...)

You can't build a laptop.

Wouldn't say 500, more like 850ish.
I think it was either CentrallyProcessed or fm87 who put one together.

Prebuilts if you buy right can be amazing.

GPU is meh, but overall a great deal.

Not particularly, but I would rather search around a bit more and fine the best I can get for the best price.
Anyhow this is for the OP, not me, so it's at his discretion.
