By no means am I computer savvy so I thought I would ask the Pro's here if this system will work fine with SWTOR. My work was kind enough to get me a new lap top ordered that I will be able to take home in the evenings. Let me know what you think and what concerns I should have if I try to run TOR on it.

Brian thanks for taking a look. I cant wait to get it now after hearing that. I figured it had to be better than a $400 gateway I bought at best buy 4 years ago lol. The old gateway will run the game but my guy does more slow walking than running.

Taking a close look at the graphics chip it's more suited for business graphics like 3D CAD work and such. But SWTOR isn't as demanding as major FPS so it should still run fast and smooth on medium settings. You might have some glitch at high detail settings but I would give it a go and see before moving it down.
