So I ran the Catzilla test and got a score of...1198. I looked at some of the other scores on the leaderboard and they were in five digit territory.

But looking at it, the only thing I'm lacking is physical memory, apparently. There's not really much worth upgrading a laptop though, is there?

Yeah laptops just don't have the space and ability to really upgrade. You could find some RAM for it but something like graphics and such just aren't really able to be upgraded. RAM always helps though! But for what exactly is bogging down your onboard, I don't know What windows do you use? If you're using a newer one do you use all the fancy features?

EDIT Okay so yeah I learned how to look at pictures! lol

so you have windows 8, if you're using the "style" features of it that may be bogging you down a little. I don't know if it's actually called style but you know the fancy window colors and animations, that sort of stuff.

Even then, Windows always ensures that their latest product is less work to run than their previous ones, so I can't imagine the features being that heavy.

This is an enigma.

[escobert]

Right, they aren't like Vistas and completely hog your CPU. But, They do pull a little and could help a little. I would look into getting 8GB or RAM if possible.

Jesus, 32MB? That can't be right. Something on your laptop is chewing up the rest. The Intel 4000 is not nearly that bad. xD

It's wrong, but not like you think. Intel hd graphics chips have 0 MB dedicated video memory. They use shared system memory. Also shion your computer can run it. Barely.

Ah yeah, that sounds familiar! Much obliged.
