    Will the GDDR5 650m be able to run The Witcher 2? I don't really care if the specs are on low, the primary purpose of the computer will be college but I want to be able to game too. I already have the game, it was a gift, but my current computer was not bought with the intent to game. My main concern is the frame stuttering, that's what happens to me now and I've seen videos of it happening to a bunch of other people.

    Thanks for the help.

    yes most definitely, the gt 650m will run the witcher2. This card is faster than my older gtx 460m and the 460m ran the game on my asus g73 just fine (albeit at reduced resolution and with some of the more taxing game features disabled). It will still look very good on a 650m

    yeah 460m was able to medium-high at 720p, 650m should be just fine :)

    I can run that game on my ATi 4300M. Just kidding. But yes, you can run it well. The GT 650M's performance is about the same as the GTX 560M's performance (according to Notebookcheck).
