    Intel doesn't make graphics cards. These graphics chipsets are integrated into the CPU and are definitely not meant for gaming. From what I can tell, the 530 is better than the 4000 series, but it's still below the system requirements and will probably be inadequate.

    Here's a benchmark, where it's concluded the game can barely reach 30fps on low settings at a low resolution.

    EA has a refund policy, but it expires 24 hours after first launching the game.

heya, thanks for your quick reply.

I have some news: the good news is I can at least run the minimum download (the bit about darth vader running about), I haven't yet finished the whole download.

however the bad news is I'm having to run the game like so (image) but like I mentioned in my post I don't really care much about graphics setting much as long as I can play it with friends which hopefully it will still work

I cant tell you any FPS or anything but it seems to be running OK at everything low and in some places it seems to run better than PVP in Star wars the old republic so that is always a good sign.
