That is a laptop that looks perfect for me, but I need to know for certain that it has everything I need. It seems no one has enough
information on i5-450M. I need pixel shader 1.1 and up, DirectX9 compatible, and generally pretty fast. I know i5 is fast enough for
me, and I know that it's better that AMD Dual Core, but I need to know for sure so my parents will let me buy it.

The reason I need this is to get Torque 3D. Help!

ANYONE?

Store websites are known for having little to no information about the product. I suggest you look on the official Dell website, or on a website like Newegg.com.

I did, and the Intel website and all over the internet.

Graphics: Dell Cappuccino Studio 15Z features Intel HD graphics which is DirectX10 capable. The graphics supports casual 3D gaming, so you can play games like Starcraft 2, World of warcraft at low to medium details and setting. The graphics is capable of smooth HD video streaming and displaying video in Full HD mode but you can not explore this feature in Dell studio S15Z-2289CPO due to display limitation. 15.6 inches WLED HD screen of Dell studio 15Z comes with 1366*768 resolution which doesn�t support 1080p contents and, as such, you can view contents up to 720p only on this screen.

I can't get onto the website.
But if what Shadow posted is correct, don't buy it. You will regret it, ESPECIALLY for 3D which is what you are doing.
What's your budget?
