A8-4500M with Radeon graphics

[HarrY_12321]

Hey guys, I came across a really cheap laptop which had a AMD A8-4500M processor and 512mb integrated graphics (HD 7640G) but I'm not sure if it is dual.

Will the laptop be able to run GTA SA ONLINE (SAMP) at max setting 720p without lag? If so, will it run CSGO, minecraft (or gta 4/5) decently too?

Note: I may overclock it as well to gain the additional 10 - 20 fps.

It will probably run san andreas at max but it's really weak. Minecraft might get 30 fps due to the cpu being very weak. Csgo will be unplayable and even launching gta 4/5 will be hard on it if it does at all (512 mb is not enough to play these games no matter what card you have in any decent way). How much does it cost? Also you can't oc it at all.

Take a look at "A8 4500M HD 7640G" on YouTube and then tell me what you think about that, running gta v and minecraft etc. It is actually overclockable easily and the price is only £120 (used but working perfectly)

It runs it at lowest settings below 30 fps. Also ocing is highly dependant on the laptop and the cooling in it.
Also I think I found the ocing video you were talking about and that only works on very few laptops. I wouldn't recommend it for these purposes and just save up for a better laptop/ normal gaming pc.

Really just bottom of the barrel.

I have a gaming pc already, I'm just looking to get my bro a cheap laptop for a bit (until I get more money) which will run gta sa (online) with decent frames

It will most likely accomplish that but not much more.

That is fine then, or would you recommend an i3 3110m with Intel HD graphics? (according to YouTube that literally reaches 30 fps on minecraft) but the AMD a8 gets 70+

Personally I would save up instead of spend but if you are getting one the a8-4500m will be better.
