momo_101 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Based off of what you've posted, you should mostly be fine. You might run in to trouble getting the Nvidia 520 working though. Although, there's work arounds/drivers for most. (I haven't checked lately) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristapzs Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 Hey, thanks for your response. After a lot of research it seems that I was wrong about my on board video card. I believe it's Intel 2000hd not 3000 . Although I'm not sure. Aida64 says 3d accelerator is Intel hd 2000. I'm pretty sure my integrated intel wireless card will not work too, but i can but usb wifi adapter for like 20$ on ebay. So my current problem is intel 200hd & nvidia 520mx. As i spend 8+ hours in photoshop daily they are vital for me. So maybe there is any written solution for 520mx and intel 2000hd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
