It's an Acer Laptop, not totally sure what model. I also didn't know how much or how little you needed so I just copied and pasted. I've not had any problems with my high graphic mods for minecraft or when I play League of Legends or a few other HQ graphic games. I don't know why it wouldn't be alright for mass Effect when I'm running it low quality.

As expected, this PC is not meant for gaming. Minecraft and League of Legends work fine because they're not very demanding.
Mass Effect 3 is another matter. You have Intel HD graphics, which are not meant for gaming. It's listed as unsupported in the Mass Effect 3 system requirements.
Unfortunately, graphics hardware in laptops can't be upgraded, so if you really want to play Mass Effect 3 on PC, you'll have to buy or build a PC with a dedicated graphics card by Nvidia (Geforce) or AMD (Radeon).If there's an AMD sticker on the laptop, you likely have an AMD processor. That was their main business before they took over Ati.
It may also be possible that there is indeed an AMD GPU in there but that the PC is using the integrated graphics instead. If the laptop came with an AMD driver CD, install it.
