Can My Notebook Run It?
last updated: 3/1/09

If you'd like to know if your notebook can run a game, this is the right place!

Some things to note before you post:

• Integrated video cards are NOT meant for gaming. Don't expect much from them.
• This thread is also meant to ask for laptops that you don't own yet, but would like to know how they will perform

In order to determine if you computer can run a certain game we need your specs. Please provide the following in either your post or signature:

--Start Example--

CPU:
GPU:
RAM:
Display:

--End Example--

Under "Display", please make sure to indicate your native resolution.

Also, make sure to let us know specifically what games you would like to play. You can ask a more direct question such as "Can I run this game at high settings?", or a more general question like "At what settings can I run this game?". We'll do our best to help.

And that's it! Your final post should look something like this:

I started a new thread because the old one has gotten really large and is starting to slow the server down. The old thread can be found here: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=283291

 

Ok ill start it off. i asked this in the old thread but never got a response. What would be my settings on Arama 2 with

C2D 2.2ghz
nvidia 9800GTS
4gigs of DDR3
native rez 1900x1200

thanks.

 

probably medium some high at native res

 

My rig again:

HP Dv7t
Core 2 Duo T6500
4 GB DDR2 Ram
500 GB 5400 rpm HD
1 GB ATI Radeon HD 4650 DDR3

How much Batman Arkham Asylum can it handle?

 

high settings at a moderate res.

 

Hi I was wondering how much can my laptop handle Crysis Warhead, Supreme Commander Forged Alliance, GTA4, Empire Total War, Need for Speed Shift, Fallout 3 and The Witcher?

Here are my specs:
Alienware M17x
Intel Core 2 QX9300 @ 2.53ghz, 12MB L2, 1066FSB
4GB DDR3 1333mhz RAM
Dual Nvidia GeForce GTX280M SLI
1900x1200 WUXGA Beyond HD 1200P

Sorry if I'm asking too much, but I spent a lot of money on this machine and I'm really curious what is it capable of.

Thank you in advance!

 

lenovo IdeaPad Y550(customized model)
Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor T4300 2.1ghz
nVidia Geforce G 110M graphic card with 256MB

2x1 GB PC3-8500 DDR3 SDRAM 1066MHz SODIMM Memory
Will crysis 1 / assassins creed / Call of Duty: World At War / need for speed undercover these games work in this laptop

 

Good catch. Fixed!

 

im no expert but i would say yes all at max settings. Also for crysis download CCC(google CCC crysis) looks waaay better with waaay better performance.

 

HP Pavilion dv6

AMD Turion Ultra ZM-82 2.2 Ghz
4 GB DDR2 - 800 Mhz Ram
ATI Radeon HD 4650 DDR3 1GB
1366x768 Native Resolution

GTA 4 plays everything on high at a native resoultion.
I was wondering at what settings will i be able to play Crysis and Batman AA?

 

crysis medium some high and batman should be about high/very high

 

I heard it is a MOD ? Is that true? Can you please give me details about it I don't really get what it is. Oh, and thanks for the reply

 

yea its a mod. its easier to just read the thread below and see what it does.
remember to run a bechmark before and after to see what config is best for you.

waiting for ur reply

 

probably low-med settings for all of those

 

My friend has an Acer with T4200, the same ram, Geforce G105m, he can play Crysis at all low, AC and COD WAW at low medium so I expect the G110m to be a little bit better.

 

kinda wondering what settings i can play operation flashpiont 2 at with my lappy as i am torn between getting it on xbox360 or pc

CPU;[email protected]
RAM;4 gb 800 mhtz
GPU;8800m gtx 512mb
SCREEN;1920x1200

also would xp be better than vista as i have both os?

 

I'm thinking of playing through either Crysis or Warhead, not sure which. If I use that CCC mod on my Uni MBP Win7 x64, 2.4GHz C2D, 4GB RAM, 256 DDR3 9600M GT what kind of performance can I expect running at about 720p? Should I opt for Warhead over Crysis since I've heard it's better optimized?

 

play crysis or you wont get whats happening in warhead. its like starting star wars in empire strikes back. expect medium settings.

 

Even if I don't care about the story and am mostly in it for the eye-candy?

 

either way you shouldnt expect huge gains in fps over crysis. it mainly optimizes high settings, you might get about 5 extra fps at the same settings on warhead. original crysis is much longer than warhead, though overall i suggest you just buy maximum edition so you get both warhead and crysis.

 

Do you guys think Flight Simulator X would work fine on my Notebook?
Cheers

 

Can my notebook can run FIFA 10 with high settings?
Dell XPS M1530
CPU: T7500 2.2 ghz 4 meg cache fsb 800
Ram: 2 gig ddr2
Hard: 160 gb 5400 rpm
GPU: GeForce 8600GT 256 meg ddr3
Display: 1280*800
OS: windows vista 32bit

 

I asked in the old thread, but I never got an answer as it was closed on the same page I posted xP

I did install Trackmania, and I run it at 1920x1080 no AA but 16x filtering and I get 30fps with that (I use vsync though), if I use 2x AA, it hovers around 24-25, sometimes jumping to 30. Anyone with near my config get the same results?

 

Hello everyone, i have a dilemma right now, i want to play batman arkham asylum, should i buy it for xbox or run it in this laptop
c2d p7450
9800m gs

1366*768 (i would play it at 1280*720)

Thanx in advance

 

that laptop. it will run great.

 

Hey guys

Core i7 1.73 820QM
GTX 280m
4gb DDR3 1333ghz

I'm most worried about future games like Dragon Age Origins, Mass Effect 2, and heck, why not, Fallout New Vegas (I know I know its far away)

Would this laptop be able to run upcoming games like the above well?

I don't really require maxing out the settings, just that it runs smoothly. How many years would I get with the above specs running games with no problem?

Thanks

 

all of those games u listed will run fine, and you should expect a 1-2 years of all high and maybe 2 more on medium

 

What about Empire Total War, or Napoleon Total War?

 

No sweat, although all those artillery shell calculations can be tough even on a core i7.

 

I'm looking to get a Dell Precision M4400 with the NVIDIA Quadro FX 770M. I know that this card will run World of Warcraft fine, but I'm more interested as to what resolution it can push it. I'd like to run Normal to Ultra quality at native resolutions. Does anybody know what the highest resolution I can accomplish that at is?

1280x800
1440x900
1920x1200

I'd like to go at least 1440x900 if I can. Any advice would be appreciated!

 

Games:
s4league
GTA SA-MP

I was wonder if the ATI Radeon Xpress 200m could run these games Ok-Fluently?

Computer Specs:
Processor: 1.47 ghz CeleronM
RAM:{512} For some reason it says {448 mb Of RAM}
CPU:80GB HDD
GFX CARD:ATI Radeon Xpress 200m

If im missing any other specs plz tell me. thx

P.S.* if i upgraded my RAM to 1gb would that help?

 

Apologies for my first post being a leeching post, but I'm really curious to know if I've wasted money or not. I've pre-ordered Fallout 3 Game of the Year Edition without thinking of system specs.

System: Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5800 @ 2.00 GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT
RAM: 4GB (Looking at similar Pavilion laptops, I believe it is DDR2, 2DIMM)
Display: 1440x900 WXGA

Thank you very much!

 

Thats the 8690 right?
Im looking into getting that

 

My sister wants to know if her laptop will run sims 3

Genuine Intel(R) CPU 585 @2.16GHz 2.16GHz
Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family- thats all she told me...I think thats the intel gma 4500?
1 gb of ram

 

Playable, not sure if the CPU will drag down performance though.

 

Hey, I was wondering that are there so much games which i can't play in high details in this year and in next few years? Thanks in advance.

CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-720QM Processor ( 45nm, 6MB L3 Cache, 1.60GHz)
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 280M Graphics with 1GB DDR3 Video Memory
RAM: 4GB DDR3 SDRAM at 1333MHz
Display: 15.6" Full HD LED Display with Super Glossy Surface (1920 x 1080)

 

yes it most likely is the x4500 GPU.
It will work on the notebook.

 

it will run high settings on every game for the next maybe 2 years, then the next 2 will drop to medium and low as time goes on.

 

Will my Notebook run Operation Flashpoint 2 with decent graphics? (High)
How about Armed Assault or Armed Assault 2?



cheers

 

Anyone know how my notebook will handle the upcoming Dragon Age?

 

intel(c) core 2 duo
2.0ghz processor speed
800mhz
4gb memory
NVIDIA GeForce G102M with 512MB
vista 64 bit
DDR2
system bus 800mhz


can it run aion online/wow?

 

Game's not out yet, but if the system requirements are anything to go by you should be fine around medium-high settings.

 

pes 2010 and fifa 2010

intel core2duo t8100 2.1
2g
vista
8600m gs nvidia
screen 17''

 

So I have decided to go with a Sony Vaio laptop.
Either the SR or the new CW.

Will the SR with Intel T6400 2ghz CPU, 4gb RAM and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 512 MB gfx run Call of Duty MW2? I don't mind playing with a fps config.
Or will it be more reasonably to go with the new CW with C2D P7450, GeForce GT230 512mb?

The SR is much sleeker, lighter and has a better design, but the CW is a bit more powerful. Which one should I get? Will the SR even be able to play COD MW2 at all?

 

the hd 4570 is actually a very nice card. it will run the game easy.

 

ATI HD 4570 with a resolution of 1920x1080 (the dell studio 15)

WoW, 25 man raids, settings on medium..... will it choke?

 

you should lower the res and u'll be fine

 

Will it be impossible to run it at 1920x1080?
