I used this cpu for 3 years, I don't recommend playing any games on it but on very low settings and 8gb of ram you can get 25-30 fps on gta.

the processor is very snappy for day to day use and for doing any business work, (eg, Word typing, Excel, listening to music on you tube or spotify) it is terrible at games though, you can pick up these laptops very cheap now though so i do recommend for just basic stuff.
