Help with Graphics Card

[b3jh24]

Hello everyone, this is my first time posting here.

I am wondering if I will be able to play Civ V on my 2011 13" Macbook Pro through Bootcamp, and I am having trouble determining if my graphics card will bottleneck me.

Here are my specs:
CPU: Intel Dual Core i5 2.3GHz
RAM: 4GB
GPU: Intel HD 3000 384MB VRAM(Integrated)
Display: 1280x800

I will be running this with Windows 7 64-bit via Bootcamp.

I do not currently have the Windows 7 disc, so trying the demo is NOT an option.

So if anyone is using a PC with this graphics card, I would like to know if you have had success running this game, and if so, what settings are you playing on.

Thanks for any help.

That is not a graphics "card". That is an intel integrated GPU.

You are going to probably just have to wait to try the demo. There are three, one for vanilla and two for each expansion.

Those computers are from 2011 just like yours, there may be threads from back then, that may have some input?

Those computers are from 2011 just like yours...

What do you mean by "those computers?"

You were looking for a PC like yours. They were produced back in 2011. Production lines do not last very long, before they are changed.
