Getting a laptop and the only options I have are Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD and 256MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650. I'm most likely getting the ATI. I don't want a gaming laptop, I just want the ability to play GW when at a friends house or on a seven hour road trip. So anyway, my current desktop allows me to get max graphics with 4x aliasing. What will the two above options give me and what might the FPS be?

Not much experience with laptops and you didnt give specifics but DO NOT GET Intel GMA, that video controller does not like many key areas in GW.

The ATI is 4x as fast. It's not going to rock but you should be able to play the game.

the 3650 is more than adequate for a good GW experience - it will be ok for other "older" games as well.... way better than the INtel chipset.
