Samsung R780 Laptop-How viable is it for gaming at this point?

[EternalSeeker]

Hey guys,

 

So I will be away from my main rig for a week since I am going to my hometown for visiting family. 

 

The question is I have my old Samsung R780 laptop. I just upgraded it to windows 10. The specs are as followed: 1600by900 resolution, i5 430m, 4GB DDR3, GT 330M, 500GB internal HDD. So I will be using this along with an external HDMI TV or monitor at my parents place. It can run PCSX2 and DS emulators (which I play time to time) and thought it takes long, I can run simulations and other hpc computing on the i5. So I have origin and steam installed on it but haven't downloaded any of my games as well.

The games I own:

-BF3

-BF4

-BFBC2

-Dragon Age Inquisition

-Shadow of Mordor

-GTA V

-Borderlands 2 and the pre sequel

-MGSV

-etc.

 

So can I run any of the newer games atleast on low to medium settings? I am planning to be gaming a bit as well and I am wondering which games would actually run on it?

If you're LUCKY you can MAYBE run the least demanding game at the lowest settings and resolution.

I looked it up and it's like 1/3 as good as a GT 940m... not very impressive

You will be expecting frames that would likely be better even on an integrated chip.
