A:Answerthere is actually a link on the dell support page in regard to testing your battery or if it's bad it links you to ordering a new battery and have it delivered to your home i love Dell Support and this is why this is my 2nd Dell computer.
A:AnswerThat would be dependent on the games you are trying to play (check out the hardware specifications on the game manufacturer's website). Some AAA titles and more taxing games may not be compatible with the hardware on this computer. For something like that, you would want a faster processor and dedicated graphics. Other less taxing games may be able to be played on low to medium settings on this computer.
