What's your video hardware?

Integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X4500HD

Is that what you wanted?

Integrated graphics means they cut corners and gave him more RAM instead of a proper video card. You won't be able to run high-end games until you invest in a proper card. まほ～

[Fredulus]

Yeah sounds like it. Don't expect to be ripping through games :-/

@stocking: No, they didn't give him more RAM instead of a video card. Most people won't benefit from a nice graphics card, there's no need to include a nice one. This isn't a gaming computer. Please don't try and act smart if you're not.

Wrong

Integrated graphics are when the video cards are directly part of the motherboard and share RAM with the rest of the system as it does not have it's own dedicated Video RAM, therefore it's impossible to upgrade as there are no PCI Express slots as the video chipset was directly soldered onto the motherboard.

Don't give advice if you don't know stuff.

This is awful and will not run anything correctly, including most video streams above 460p

I just got the computer. I didn't say I wasn't going to change it.

Yes, an integrated graphics card has the video output on the mother board, it is true. But in my PC I had integrated graphics and could not run many games, but there were two PCI Express slots, and because graphics cards have their own output separate from the integrated graphics output on the motherboard, I plug my monitor into the graphics card instead of the output on the motherboard.

I'm sorry for this misunderstanding, I will try to be more clear next time.
