    First off, laptop and desktop graphics names don't associate, i.e. the desktop card has 64-shaders, the laptop card has half the number of shaders, effectively half as fast.
     
    For an idea of what to expect, try Notebookcheck for their overview.  But 32-shaders is as fast as a 9500GT or 8600GT or modern Sandy Bridge integrated video.
     
    Like all computers, system specs matter; afterall the graphics card doesn't run the game, i tonly draws the pictures the CPU tells it to draw.
    How CPU watts relate to degrees? - How can overclocking affect CPU lifespan? - TEC/Peltier definitions, formulas and temperature estimations

     
    For Intel processors, 0.123 x TDP = Continuous Amps at 12v [source].  This includes around 30% overhead, so it isn't minimum for operation.  TDP is not actual per CPU, it is a range for multiple processors to qualify for the same OEM cooler and power rating, and allows Intel to debut future processors in the same TDP.

        32 CUDA Cores:

        I wouldn't expect much out of it. On a 720p monitor you might be able to play games like WoW on low settings. Older FPS games like COD4 at lowest settings might be okay.
