[QUOTE=B_oE_AN;19467758]in my experience, gmod on integrated graphics runs slow and only in DX7 mode[/QUOTE]
Nope. I maxed it on a integrated 3100 using DX9 at 1280 x 1024.
You getting any cash from insurance to add to budget?
Remember that gmod has no multithreading, so you'll actually experience better performance on 3GHZ single core cpu vs a 2GHZ quad core cpu, simply because gmod will not make use of more than 1 core, and garry doesn't seem to pumped to implement it, so don't expect it anytime soon.

Just because it doesn't use multi-cores doesn't mean a singe-core is going to perform better than a quad. A quad with larger L3 and L2 caches and better multiplier/clock is going to perform better than a 3GHz single-core with small L3/L2 caches.
