I'm thinking of getting an asus zenbook for college, but I'd like to continue gaming in college as well.

is the graphics card good enough to run league at medium-high settings and get over 45 fps?

This Graphic card is pretty minimal. Not so sure about high graphics, in fact really not... Not even sure about what you'll get on medium. How much does this laptop cost?

Btw, This card is what we call an integrated. It shares its power for every application. What you need is a Dedicated one

Honestly, no it wont work very well at all..
You wanna look for a dedicated graphics card not integrated.

Looking at asus laptops? look for the ones that start with G-series like a G74(just an example of how it will show in name.)
They are built for games. As for htis is built for basic applications.

Well either way, it will work...My old laptop was integrated and I got 20 fps. I would say you'll get at least 30 fps.

Unfortunately Intel Integrated graphics are usually bad... but you'll probably manage 30-40+ FPS at minimal settings. It's not going to run smoothly on medium/high though, unless the recent SR update made it slightly better :/

hmm well this laptop will mostly be for portability/college work.

i guess i'll bring my old laptop along because it runs league at 80-100 fps on very high settings :P

didn't want to bring it though b/c it's a real power hog; dies in less than an hour in power saver mode -_-

>Reads asus laptop, and a question on whether it would work for gaming.

LOL

this looks really good, but it's a little out of my budget for 1k.
