Do you think this laptop could handle Black Mesa? Would it benefit from ReadyBoost?

this is my laptop. I really like my laptop and I know it's not meant for anything gaming. I'm just wondering about the above questions.

I would be running it off an SD card.

Edit: Sorry. forgot the link. lol.

First point: if you're running a game, install it on a local disk. It's just a lot faster, and can improve your FPS in some games.

Secondly, if you can run source engine games, you shouldn't have trouble with black mesa. Looking at some benchmarks for other source games, you might have difficulties but you can probably get it running on low, at the very least.

It will probably struggle to run this game as it is not designed for gaming. The cpu is very weak and so is the gpu so run the game at your own risk.
