So peepers i just recieved a new Macbook white

2.1GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 3MB
Intel GMA X3100 graphics processor with 144MB of DDR2 SDRAM shared with main memory

and i was wondering what my chances where that FAR CRY 2 would be able to install and run multiplayer on this with a decent frame rate???

i dont want to just write fricken word doc's on this thing... i think i gots screwed and should have opt'd for the Pro

Sorry man I feel bad for ya, I really do. I made the same mistake when I got my MacBook a few years back, don't expect anything. At all. God, I tried to play Far Cry... it was like trying to play a slideshow. The GMA is definitally the WORST GPU I've seen in a modern laptop...

Sorry man :(
 
I've the same MAcbook with,
and the same disapointment for gaming !
With a lot of hope I've tried to run Fallout 3 under parallels : no way. The damned GMA X3100 sucks.
:(
