I would choose another laptop.
Ahh I see. Thank you for the answer. Tbh I myself aren't really sure how to accurately figure performance out based on GPU and CPU seeing as if the GPU is good and the CPU is bad, no dice and vice versa.
The CPU benchmark doesn't really help either because I've no idea how to read it. :S

I'm looking to buy a new laptop that can run games at basic speeds not really into the 4xIR and whatnot
But i'm just wondering if this laptop is any good.
It runs intel i5-4200u with a Nvidia GEforce GT 740M with 4GB dedicated RAM.
I'm hoping to atleast run Mario Galaxy 2, Smash Brawl, Mario Sunshine, the Zelda and Pokemon series for wii and also some sonic games.
Just at basic playable settings atleast with minimal lagg.
Thoughts? Thank you in advance
So.. 4200M and higher will be what I should be looking for? thank you
