Intel Q45 Express Chipset comes embedded on the Intel Core 2 Quad/Core 2 Duo CPUS and features an Integrated GPU called Intel GMA X4500.
Various Intel Chipsets come with the Intel GMA X4500 but this one (and the Q43) seem to deliver the best performance. However, due to its characteristics (e.g. Shared Memory) the performance is still very limited but might be enough to play today's games at low or medium settings excluding, however, very demanding games like Metro 2033 or The Witcher II, that are probably unplayable, even at the lowest settings.
Note 1: Intel GMA X4500 does support DirectX 10 but even the most forgiving games might be unplayable due to the demand level.

Unlike many ppl say that this chipset cant run any good games
am able to play skyrim(30 fps low) , dota 2(30-38fps low) , arkham asylum, mass effect very well
should i upgrade to this
yes
hi..
game debate says that I can not run Assassins Creed using Q45 but i ran it on a resolution of 1024x768 on low to medium settings..
How to let GD know?
maybe try contact pip
Someone really needs to take this down to a 1, there's many GPUs rated 2 that are outstanding compared to this
How is this not rated a 1 yet?
It's a 1 now ;)
Can't wait till' I'm able to buy GPU that'll replace this as the main card
it has 64 bit and its memoru goes from 32 mb to at least 1332 mb (mine raised as soon as i added ram)
Thats why i hate my gfx :(
yeah but its good to have something to fall back on if your main card fails mate
My gfx(HD i3 2100) is 10%↓ than this gfx. What feature makes this gfx better than HD i3??????
That is a very good question. Let me take a look..
Our bad. Your GFX's rank is going to be raised. Thanks for the feedback buddy.
=) very happy we have admin like pip…again =)
i don't get why it's only 27% better,it should perform at least 50% better according to it's specifications…
