what could my laptop run?
Looking for games that run smoothly at 30fps or higher. You mentioned CSGO on low settings and Portal at 100fps—those sound solid. Your specs are decent: an AMD A4-5000 CPU at 1.5GHz, 4GB RAM, and Windows 10 in 64-bit mode. For games like Portal, you’ll likely need a mid-range GPU and stable system. If you’re open to other puzzle titles, consider Portal 2, Half-Life: Alyx, or even some modern indie gems like Stardew Valley or Celeste. Let me know if you want more options!
Portal 2? It's a bit more intense in graphics, right? Could be an MMO?
You might enjoy playing total war shogun 2 with the lowest settings. It's straightforward to launch.

You're welcome! I was extremely motivated a couple years ago to find good games for low spec pc's, so I caught up on my gaming history! Lots of great classic games that are still amazing experiences. I'm sure there's at least as many I left off the list that deserve mentioning, just search around a little. I found it helpful to search for the genre I felt like playing and narrow it down from there. I know my old rig couldn't handle games made after 2008, so I would search for "Great FPS games from 2007," or "Best RPG games before 2008," et cetera. It really let me narrow it down between 3-5 games I would want and I would go from there. Make sure to check out GOG.com, they have great sales on older games that have the DRM's removed and are updated to run on modern OS's.
