Is this a good graphics card to play Assassin's Creed, "Intel® GMA X4500"?

Pff, that probably wouldn't even run the installer. Anything that starts with Intel GMA is an integrated graphics chip. They are not, cannot and never have been designed to play games unless they are about 8 years old. If you want to play a game of Assassin's Creed caliber your going to need a dedicated graphics card. Anything from the nVidia 8000 series up should run it (anything below might but its not worth it as the 7000 series may run it but they don't support DirectX 10) if your going cheap then something around a nVidia 8800 GS is probably bottom line.

(nVidia cards rank from lowest, GS to medium GT to higher, GT+. the higher the number the better but avoid the x200's and the x400's. they generally arn't worth it. Your budget will decide what you get but try and avoid the GS's. GT+ is only if you want to fork out the money. There are several varieties of each series. if your after a desktop computer your after the ones that DON'T have the suffix M for mobile or Go)

If your going for a 9000 series go for the about the 9600 GT.

If your going top of the range. well i wouldn't recommend it. Top of the range cards are normally only mid range cards by the next year. You might as well go with last seasons stand out card instead of what ever the newest release is.... or you could go with ATI but i don't have much experience with those....

Anyway to answer your question. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO it wont.

Edit

... ohhh laptop.... then no. it definitely wont. The processor is enough to run that area but the graphics chip will never be enought. you will need a graphics card. if your buying a laptop then you still have options. If this is a laptop that you own then you may as well give up now. That will not run ANY new games.

If your buying then you will need something with a graphics card.

For laptop cards have a look at this site. If your buying then go for the 9600M GT as your minimum. The 8800M GT... maybe. Look at the 3d Mark scores as a reference and you will see why Intel GMA chips suck.

But really if your getting a laptop then unless you are going top of the range then you arn't going to play this or last generation games well. sorry

I am sorry, but: no, Assassin's Creed will not work on an Intel® GMA X4500. The Intel GMA X4500 is one of the simplest graphic chips on the market right now and is not suitable for any new game that has been released for the past year-two years.

If you want to consider playing games like Assassin's creed, you need a good video card and those are hard to find in laptops since most of the laptops are provided with the X4500 or a simple Nvidia or ATI Card.

I suggest you use a computer with a decent graphics card, the current cards are supported for Assassin's Creed:

ATI® RADEON® X1600*/1650*-1950/HD 2000/3000/4000 series

NVIDIA GeForce® 6800*/7/8/9/GTX series

The onboard graphic chip GMA x4500 is enough to play the game. So the game will work but it's not 'good', meaning that in order to get a decent framerate in action sequences you may have to turn down various graphic details, which definately won't be as enjoyable as playing the game with a better graphic card (think nVidia or ATI)

you should really pick up a dedicated graphics card. I highly suggest a evga gts 250. any more than that and your cpu wonnt be able to keep up with the graphics card.

this is for sure an onboard graphics card that can be seen on many laptops notebooks ... intel onboard graphics arent recomended for playing such graphic hungry pc games like assassins creed so my answer to u is No this onboard graphics device aint got enough performance for pc games ...

This is not a card; but a chip built into the motherboard and the answer is no.

hi if your laptop graphics ram is less then specified on the dvd box then you wont be able to play like eg if the minuim is Nvidia Geforce 7600GT then you go research how much video ram Nvidia Gefore 7600Gt and if its less that your game play may be laggy or you wont be able to play at all

i recomend GeForce 9800 GT Video Card ^^ its good

A very informative website, kindly stay in website and check

well no, laptop (specially upgrading GPU) are rare , mostly you need it to swap w/ some1.

P.S. GPU makers doesn't sell mobile GPUs
