The UMA graphics instantly turns me off.
Ditto.
Technically, it'll probably play it, but discrete is the way to go.

Would I recommend it for purchase for gaming, especially on CoH? Not a chance.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

I'm sure it's fine for email & word processing but I certainly wouldn't buy it and expect to play any even moderately graphics challenging games. That laptop's a basic economy model.
Get a discrete graphics card, either ATI or Nvidia. Don't get something with integrated graphics (UMA, Intel HD) and ever expect good gaming performance.
COH has just been murdered by NCSoft. http://www.change.org/petitions/ncso...city-of-heroes
If I recall correctly, the home version of windows only runs a few apps at once before it starts to cry. Or maybe that's the starter edition?
Either way this is a good non-graphic intensive app laptop.
CAn anyone tell me if this is good enough to play CoH?
