Assuming I play on the lowest settings.

Seems like GTA4, at least, is playable, but a little laggy:

But I'm now thinking the X220 is better for me. Seems to be about the same weight and size, but only faster.

I'd go X220. Personally am still unsold on AMD CPUs.
W530, W520, X61T, X200s, W550s, E590, T430

CIV 5 is a CPU and graphics hog. I think it would be unbearably slow.
