you can't really play games fast and it is to lag and the CPU is too slow for a gamer. Finally, I think the apps are too slow to open them and somehow it don't even give me to open them! I need to press a lot of time and it will open suddenly and turned into a lot of apps but it was the same! That why I gave this CPU for two stars. But the display is good for someone who is only use the computer which uses the Intel Core i5 M 560 it MAYBE fast if you didn't install many apps.
