I can't understand why a computer of that spec would be supplied with integrated graphics? Unless that is what you asked for.

If you read what he said, you will notice the machine is a Dell.

90% of their machines are on-board graphics.

Arrgghh! Dell!

Not gaming machines then? They do it to cut cost so that anything decent is an extra. My sister once enquired about a cheap Dell. When she refused all the extra's and extended warranty etc. They put the phone down and wouldn't sell her it.

What kind of on-board is it?

The newest on-board from Intel/ATI can adequately run games on low settings.

FX5K2 is slow as hell. Any recent on-board will kick its ass hands down. You must give us a gamelist however, not every game likes integrated graphics solutions, that applies almost exclusively for Intel products though.
