**Can My Notebook Run It?** - Ask about your notebooks here

Well, atleast it beats waiting on an answer here, minimum is all you need to know to play the game.
All of the latest games Ive checked have both minumum ánd recomended specs listed btw ?

 

Yummy

12

 

Dell XPS 16
Intel® Core™ i7-720QM processor (1.6GHz, 6MB L3Cache)
6GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM
1GB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4670
15.6 " Full HD(1080p)WLED (1920 x 1080)

I want to play Guild Wars (Guild Wars II when it comes out) and World of Warcraft. Will it play them and last a while?

 

Ofcourse, those game arnt demanding at allll..
you will be able play them as long as you youre a teenager.

Nice system btw, how much did you pay for it?

 

As configured the system is $1512 USD and I can only wish I were still a teenager. Thank you for the reply.

 

Ramzii, I see that you have an HP dv6. How well does that run games? Are the specs comparable to this?

HP dv7t
i7-720QM 1.6
17.3 1600x900
4GB DDR3 RAM
320GB 7200 HD
1GB GT 230M

I considered this as the price was pretty good but had reservations about the ability of the graphics card.

 

Ouch, my bad anyways yes, exactly the same specs, youve got the bigger screen/resolution. Which I love but for practical reasons couldnt buy.

As far as gaming goes it can handle Modern Warfare 2 at max, really happy about that. So I think it can handle just about every game atm.

At these 2 models youre looking at I wouldnt look at performance (its everything you need and more) I would look at usability.

The Full HD resolution allows much more oversight than the 1600x900 reso of the HP.
Here you can compare GPU's.. the 230M is good for it.

 

COD: MW2: Maxed settings
GTA4: Medium to High settings (Because of the quad cord processor)
Batman Arkham Asylum: High settings
Crysis: Medium settings
Bioshock: High to maxed Settings
Assasins Creed 1+2: I think near High settings im not too sure
The Lord of the Rings Online: Maxed settings
Aion: Medium settings

 

Thanks a lot.

Anyone know about Left 4 Dead?

 

I beg to differ, my acer runs Aion FULLY MAXED out with an avg of 30 FPS. I'm sure Angbad's gonna run it perhaps even smoother. Crysis will perform pretty good if he selects all the details to high except for the shaders (medium) and no AA.

 

Assassin's Creed 2 is meant to have same or very similar specs to the first one.

 

Thanks guys!

My laptop is "at my local FedEx facility". Hopefully they bring it by today can't wait.

 

I was wondering if my laptop can handle Counter-Strike 1.6, Counter-Strike: Source, Left 4 Dead & Left 4 Dead 2 and some more newer games like Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and Borderlands.

thanks in advanced!

My Specs:
Laptop Model: MSI CR600
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo T6600
GPU: NVIDIA 8200M
RAM: 4GB DDR2
Display: 1366 x 768
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium

 

U wont be able to play at max settings, but u should be alright

 

Can this computer (MSI U230) run Street Fighter 4?


CPU: AMD Neo x2, (1.6 GHz, 512k L2 cache)
GPU: ATI Radeon HD 3200
RAM: 3 Gb
Display: 1366 x 768

If yes, what settings?
If no, thanks for telling me

 

at 1366x768 res ??

 

Yup 1366x768 wouldn't be a problem as long as AA would be set off

 

thanks mate

 

Need some pointers:

Sony SR

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo P8700 2.53G
GPU: HD4570 512MB
RAM: 4GB
Display: 13.3'' (1200x800)

Games I want to play at 1200x800:

AION
COD 2

What kind of settings I am looking at?

 

From what Ive heard youll be between low - medium at Aion.
On the other hand CO2 will run splendidly on your machine at max.. damn I miss that game. You can handle COD4 nicely aswell btw,

 

How well do you guys think ill be able to play the latest games that have come out in the last 2 years or so? Like Need for Speed shift, Grid, Sims 3, Crysis, Mirrors edge and spore to name a few.

 

Crysis and GTA IV are likely the only games you can't run flat out at native resolution with the system you've listed.

 

Youre kiddin' right? You have such a rig and youve no idea what games you van play with it??

 

What is the benefit of running a 64bit over 32bit system? Is it likely to effect other programs like Microsoft office and that sorta thing?

 

Dell Studio 1555
Intel Centrino 2.10ghz
2gb Ddr2
Ati Hd 4570 512mb

Will It Run Gta 4

 

Does anyone if the Sony SR overheats easily ... i have had REALLY bad experience with the notorious Dell XPS m1330...

 

Even though this is not the thread for this Q, the biggest benefit is the use of more than 3.25GB of memory, the use of full 4GB for example.

It will run, on low to medium, in native if it's not too high.

 

Lol

Never had a decent gaming laptop before so...

 

So I've bought my new laptop but lack the time for gaming right now (exams and stuff). I just need know what to anticipate in a few weeks to keep me from going on an Finances-related rampage through uni.

Aspire 5738ZG
Intel Dual Core T4300@2,1 Ghz
Radeon HD4570 512 mb DDR3
3 gb ram@800 Mhz
1366x768 display
Windows 7 professional 32bit

The Games :
Titan Quest : Immortal Throne (most important dammit, on my Turion 2 ghz and Radeon HD2600 with mobility modded drivers under xp it ran kind of like a river of bricks)
Gears of War 1
Assassin's Creed
The Void
Dragon Age : Origins

Help

 

Titan Quest:IT - high- maxed (I don't understand, it should have ran fine on your other latp)
GOW- med-high
AC-high- max(I just looked at this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zoOvliqJA4)
The void - i don't know
DA: O - med high settings

 

Games like civ4, railroads, Hearts of Iron 3... can I get by with a 4500MHD at low settings- or do I need a low/mid range graphics card? Would a 9300 GS suffice?

 

Hey I'm interested to know if my new asus x83vp-a1 laptop can run dragon age: origins, left for dead 2 and the witcher reasonably well and at what graphics setting are we talking about? Thanks!!

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor P8700 (2.53 GHz)
GPU: 1gb ATI Mobility RADEON HD 4670
RAM: 4gb ddr2
Display: WXGA
and currently running windows 7 premium

 

Hell yeah! Thanks, Chlwotjd

 

Civ 4 chokes on a 4500, get something close to the old 8600m GT to get the game to run acceptably with decent settings.

 

Thanks, I use an 8600GT on my desktop...

I guess that translates to about a g210m. But maybe a 9300GS would get by on lower settings?

 

How about the Radeon HD 4500? I want my new lappy to play this game too

 

That will fare better than the integrated chip.

 

Don't worry, 4670 is a pretty good gaming card, even more considering your native resolution. At least medium settings, DA: O and Witcher, maxed out.

Don't mix desktop and notebook graphic cards, these are two different worlds in terms of performance. 8600m GT plays very well Civ4. With 9300GS, I'd say you will maybe have to lower some...

 

Just wondering, im helping out my friend to choose either he wanted to play Dragon Age Origins on his notebook or PS3: Here is his laptop spec. Is he able to play the game at any decent level?? like medium graphic or lowest graphic??

ASUS X51R
CPU:Core 2 Duo 1.8ghz
GPU:Ati Radeon Xpress 1100 256MB
RAM: 2.2GB
Display: (sorry i kinda forget his resolution but i think it is around 1280 x 800... i think... )

of course my notebook have no problem playing this game lolz

 

Ask your friend to get the PS3 version or lend him your laptop to play the game occasionally.

 

LOL. Yeah your friends NB is not good for gaming.

 

It should run Sims3 Great on that laptop

 

Just make sure you get the one with NVIDIA GeForce 9300M GS (GDDR3 256MB VRAM, *TurboCache Support)

 

Anyone give me any insight how well I'll be able to play Crysis on my laptop.

CPU: Intel Core i7 720QM
GPU: 1GB Nvidia GT 230M DDR3
RAM: 8GB @1333mhz
Display: native 1920x1080

Will I be able to play it on high? Any ideas? Appreciate any advice.

 

medium 1280*800.

 

What if I try it on high?

 

Debating on saving $200 now and just spending approximately that much later down the road by getting a 240m instead of 260m on Alienware M15x.

CPU: i7 720 1.6Ghz I think
GPU 240m vs 260m
Ram: 3GB DDR3
Display: 1600x900

Dragon Age Origins & Modern Warfare 2 are my most current games I will be playing and slightly curious about Crysis/Warhead. I know I can run it, but how well? How long before upgrading to a 260m will be necessary to play latest FPS games such as Bad Company 2 or playing Starcraft 2? I will prob upgrade to 4GB ram in nearer future. Opinions on both cards please! thanks

 

It would lag and makes it unplayable so ur best at medium settings

You can try some of the custom configs for Crysis just google it

 

The 260m is a high end card and also it has a 256bit bus and its much better than the 240m because the 240m is a mid range card and it has a 128bit bus. Both cards should run both games on max settings especally MW2. But it doesnt hurt to be future proof if you get the 260m when Bad company 2 and starcraft 2 comes out
