Just bought a new Toshiba laptop because my 4 year old Toshiba i7 3610QM struggled with integrated graph to run Fallout 4 in cities. My new one will be here in a few days and I realized it is 2 core after ordered. Am I ok?

The i7 U models are not as good as the QM ones, but the 950m video card will make up for that quite a bit.

If you can return it, I'd do that and get a real gaming laptop if you want to play games like Fallout 4, 860m/960m and up is where you want to be for demanding games in lower to mid settings. Take a look at www.xoticpc.com they have a good selection and easy to sort though the systems.

There is this Dell that is pretty good, although I think the price went up a bit recently from their black friday prices http://www.amazon.com/Dell-Inspiron-i7559-763BLK-Full-HD-GeForce/dp/B015PYYDMQ
