Is the integrated graphics card strong enough to run windows aero and how much is the built in dedicated video memory?

No official info showing what is the integrated graphics. But detail show that is Intel HD2500. User can assign up to 1G ram for the integrated graphics sharing from system memory. None or up to 128M dedicated video memory, unsure yet. HD2500 has no problem to run windows aero, and it is easy to support Full HD 1080p movie.

I don't know because I am running Linux on it. But this motherboard performs way better than 2 other mini-itx boards I bought recently. I wish I had found this board sooner.

Sincerely I don't use that kind of programs but I don't see any reason why I shouldn't! With the included Graphics adapter and processor speed it will work fine

I should work well on a win 7 system, Intel cards have the best compatibility generally

It comes with 64bit win 7 installed. It also has slots for cards. It has on board video with a VGA connection along with a HDMI connection. I would not recommend this PC for gaming even with a higher end card. The power supply may have to be replaced and another fan installed.

W7 OS amd fx 8 core. Card works like dream. The program that comes with it allows fan speed adjustments. Enjoy. :o)

Although it has an integrated video chip. It would be wise to install a dedicated video card for smoother visuals when watching videos or browsing the web. What kind of video card needed depends on what you plan on doing.

it's a laptop with integrated graphics. no upgrade available. as a matter of fact, no laptop can upgrade a graphics card unless you are on a laptop worth several thousand dollars. what you *can* do is uninstall all the bloatware, streamline the msconfig to load only a few things, update the AMD drivers, and turn off Aero windows graphics to speed it up. I'm debating upgrading the ram to a faster ram and 8GB, but not sure it makes much difference. An overclocked ram set of 8GB would make the most difference. 8GB limit on this machine. For better graphics, look for an A8 or A10 AMD chip with a 7000G series APU or preferable dedicated GPU.

You're gpu would be the main facter in performence, but you should be fine. I run Windows 8 and there are no problems for me

There is no integrated graphics, probably should get a nvidia graphics card(or ATI)The processor handles 3D applications like a champ, also multiple applications at once really well. I did find one more processor for socket 775 that is a bit faster, I forget the model I want to say Q9650 I believe

Yes, but not at 100% graphics settings. I tried TF2 and it ran perfectly at 100% detail, but that's not a power-hungry game. I also tried GS Global Conflict, and it ran well at 75% settings. For more recent, powerful games, I'm assuming they'll run well at about 50%. That sounds bad, but the games are still great at 50%. I'd go with this, and when your budget allows, upgrade the GPU. For another comparison, I've done some video editing with this, and blows my 6GB dual-core laptop away. A 15-minute HD video takes more than 20-minutes to output on the laptop, and about 4 minutes with this PC. Not bad at all.

Should run fine, graphics may be a little "off", as in detail/resolution. Would recommend a check with MS's website to see if any "patches" are required for Win 8.1.

Better than that... NVIDIA GeForce GT 720M with 2 GB dedicated VRAM video card.

I have windows 7 but usually windows 8 has a database of drivers so that stuff like this will work right away... I am sure it will but if you are going to be streaming video alot or playing games with moderate or higher graphics I would get the sapphire radon 6570... It is only 49 dollars on here... You will be glad you did

It depends what type of gaming. I had to install an aftermarket graphics card to get it to play Microsoft Flight Simulator at a decent frame rate, so I'd say no (out of the box).

I have the GTX 650 ti with i3, 8gb ram, win7. Runs Flight simulator X easily

No this is not. If that is what you need look into something like a Brix Pro, but even that may not meet your needs. If you going to do heavy computing this that you will need a regular desktop with a beefy processor, max ram (32-64GB) and a very good video card. There are specialized video cards just for cad-cam which will greatly improve your performance. You should expect to spend at a minimum $2,000, but a more realistic budget would be 3-4k if you go with a very high end system and specialized video card for Cad/Cam.
