I have pretty much every example of the T61 Quadros to the T420 Quadro.
They all have low poor speed memory (eg.256Mb ddr3) and have 64-bit buses. They do run CS:Go and that sort.
The other day someone asked if there was a T series classic that can play games.
I think the closes is a T430. It has a 1gb ddr3 128 bit Quadro that is sort of like a Geforce GT630/640.
This WILL do a decent fist of games at say 720p medium detail.
Problem is such a machine is like $400 usd where I am and then I would need to spend close to $100 in kbd and palmrest to convert it to a 'classic' machine.
And so this is where we're at. I have no problems with my T420/420s but I feel that in 2017 I may be going down this path.
The T430 Quadro may be closest to a 'gaming' T-series you will find

Re: The T430 Quadro may be closest to a 'gaming' T-series you will find
I can't find any sources but there was talk that a certain T430 motherboards that have variants of the Quadro GPU.
Of those, there are some that can be overclocked and would be wel for gaming.
I was quite happy with the W530 I had a bit with a k1000m GPU, but I'm not an intensive gamer, plus, there's always someone's throwaway consumer class laptop that's for sale because they got a lightweight MacBook Pro
