How are you supposed to launch bf3 with intel graphics? that game won't even run after clicking, perhaps saying that you don't meet the requeriments..

You need a graphics card.

There is nothing wrong with dedicated video ram,you have discrete Intel HD model which is fine for facebook,youtube and some flash online games...Pure 3D games you can barely play of course with settings on Low or similar depend of size of your monitor and resolution what you set.

Probably you won't reach even 30-40 FPS in best case with everything set on Low,so if you are about to play that game you need at least R7 240 or similar

I'm playing BF3 with an AMD a6-3500 (2.1 GHz) and GTX 650ti with 60~70 fps (idk what game settings)

This looks like onboard (motherboard) graphics, do you have a seperate graphic card installed?   :-\

We don't have any MOTHERBOARDS with ON-BOARD NORTHBRIDGE CHIPSET (aka Onboard Graphics) on our motherboards today. The one in Ali's computer is prolly an Intel HD 4000 Series. You could play on Medium but prepare for stutters. Get a graphics card  :L

If it's a HD 4000 series, it's still "on board" graphics, build into the processor:

Intel HD Graphics is a series of Intel integrated graphics processors introduced in 2010 that are manufactured on the same die as the processor, together forming an accelerated processing unit.

And this is his processor, intel core i3-3240 3,40 ghz (http://ark.intel.com/de/products/65690/Intel-Core-i3-3240-Processor-3M-Cache-3_40-GHz)

Graphics Specifications
Prozessorgrafik ‡    Intel® HD Graphics 2500

"Onboard" to me doesn't mean it has to be build into the motherboard, but it is "on" the board and can't be removed.

Thanks for your opinion I agree on that. But for Ali, Intel HD 2500 is like taking a crap on a toilet bowl for 1 month.

people, please, don't advice something if you did no research and don't know what it actually is.

and no, as jali and nero told you, you won't nearly be able to run any new 3d games.
this intel HD graphics will get you like 40FPS in SA:MP at normal resolution, so battlefield 3 is totally out of question.

Intel Iris Pro (Intel HD 5200) can play BF3 no problem at all. Same goes to Intel HD 4600 which could be found in i5 and i7 Processors. i3's onboard graphics is what you mean that is out of question?

yeah, he has a last gen i3, so its way worse than that.
iris pro is so rare and uncommon it's pretty much ignorable, and HD 4600 can just barely play BF3, so my point still stands.
