Intel Laptop Graphics

Intels embedded graphics as a general rule are rubbish when it comes to gaming performance.

I believe there have been reviews done of their gaming performance on different sites.

Try googling for intel GMA 950 gaming performance or similar.

Also iirc the newest versions actually have pixel pipelines (8 in the best models) however they have no vertex units. Performance wise I think you are looking at sub 6200TC performance.

Thanks for the reply, but all I really want to know is whether it'll be any good for playing The Sims or not. I've had nothing to do with PC gaming hardware for three or four years now, so I've no idea how a 6200TC would perform.
 
OK then, I shall try approaching this from another direction. What graphics should I look out for on the laptop when I am choosing one?

She won't be using it for FPS or anything like that, just The Sims and other games that 10 year old girls play ;)
