Integrated Intel� Graphic Media Accelerator X3100

[Lucozade_Lil]

Hi, my mam has just bought a laptop off dell with a Integrated Intel� Graphic Media Accelerator X3100 card. is this card any good? When I borrow it i will use it mainly for games such as roller coaster ******, zoo ****** and the sims etc, will it be ok graphics wise? on my own computer i have a nVidia GeForce MX440 card (which ive had for about 5 years) and i can play the games on this no bother, unless i build a massive zoo or themepark and then the graphics card can't cope apparently. I'm assumining the card on the new laptop isn't as good as the nvidia one on my desktop (am i right) but will it still be ok to play games on or not? thanks :)
