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

it should be fine on high settings you might have to lower the res though

 

Okay thanks, To what res do you think I should lower it to?

 

Here is the computer I am looking at:

http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=46542&vpn=N81VP-D2&manufacture=ASUS&promoid=1012
T9600
4GB DDR2
ATI 4650(1 GB)

What kind of results can I expect for some upcoming games:
Mass Effect 2
BioShock 2
Splinter Cell conviction

A few other non-gaming questions:
Is the ram upgradable to 1033mhz?

 

You wont even run it on high settings because your GPU is pretty weak to do that. Your best bet is to run it on medium settings including resloution but you can try some of the commandline tweaks to get better performance for GTAIV

EDIT: Then again the quad core should help out as well

 

i can only speak for mass effect.. i had a c1... same gfx card as the d1 and d2 though... only a slightly slower processor....

mass effect played just fine... albeit not on the highest of settings... some things i turned down slightly to get better framerates but it played it just fine... that small 16:9 screen hurt my head though for long hours of playing...lol

 

i have a amd athlon x2 @ 2ghz, and a radeon hd 4200.

it seems to run oblivion at the 800x~~ res levels just fine in medium settings, a bit clunky on the modern warfare demo though.

could it run Fallout 3? i really dont care for res' higher than 800x since im pretty used to low-end gfx cards, and i managed to play oblivion on a nvidia 6200 before this. i really care more for the speed

 

You should be able to play those games at medium settings for the 1366x768 resolution. The processor will help a little. Check out this page for some actual game stats for the HD 4650: http://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-ATI-Mobility-Radeon-HD-4650.13883.0.html

If you want top of the line graphics performance, you don't really need a better CPU, but you could look at something like the GTX 260M or 280M in an Asus, Sager, or MSI.

Good luck!

 

Wow, that's a nice rig for a 14". HD 4650 is pretty decent (roughly ~ 9700M GT). And with 1366x768 resolution, shouldn't be much problem for those games.

The T9600 is a fast CPU. I just think it's a higher voltage than my P9700. But if you're ok stepping up to a 15", then look for one with a GTX 260m.

 

Hi guys, been a while since I was last active on these forums, which basically means I've gone and got myself a new notebook Was wondering what sort of FPS I'd get in Counter-Strike Source and how these specs would handle recent games?

Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor P7450 2.13GHz
4 GB
NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 230M GPU
1366 x 768

Cheers

 

I think you might be able to play it at a really low res, so 800x whatever may just work. I had a 9400m card that could run it at 1280x800 but fps was around 20 with settings down. The HD4200 is weaker but at lower res I think you'll be okay.. granted the game lets you launch with the card and what not.

 

Hey,

I'm looking in to getting a laptop/netbook sometime early in the new year. And I really like the MSI Wind U230 with the following specs:

CPU- AMD Neo X2 MV40 @ 1.6Ghz
GPU- ATI Radeon HD3200
RAM- 2 GB (maybe 4 GB)
SCREEN- 12.1" 1366x768

Games I would ~like~ to play:

-Age of Empires 3
-The Sims 3
-NFS: Pro Street
-Left 4 Dead (maybe... )
-Sega Rally Revo


Thanks!

 

Age of Empires 3 - Medium to High settings
The Sims 3 - High settings
NFS: Pro Street - Medium settings
Left 4 Dead - Medium settings
Sega Rally Revo - im not sure i never heard of the game

 

Hi! I was wondering if I could run Modern Warfare 2/ Bad Company 2/ Crysis & Left4Dead 1 and 2 with this notebook
ASUS M60J

CPU: Core i7 720QM 1.60GHz
GPU: NVidia GT 240M 1GB
RAM: 4GB DDR3
Screen: 16"
I think there may be some heating issues but i just want to make sure.
Thanks!

 

mw2, l4d1/2 high. crysis medium. dunno about bad company.

 

Looks like I have some fellow junkies here that can help me out!

I have the same CPU and GPU as listed above. I'm running the 64 bit version of windows 7. I have 6 GB of DDR3 RAM and my display native res is 1600 X 900.

I'm wondering what settings I'd be looking at for the following games:

Empire Total War
World in Conflict
Dragon Age Origins
Dawn of War 2
The next total war game (Nepoleon total war)
and finally MFS X Gold edition

Thanks so much for all your help guys! BTW hoping for medium to high at native res but if I could be told any results on all the games that would be outstanding.

 

Okay, thanks!

How about these games:


-Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3
-Mirrors Edge (cuz its 4.99 at D2D)
-Mount and Blade ( http://www.direct2drive.com/6680/product/Buy-Mount-and-Blade-Download)



Thanks!

 

guys thanks for the reply, and this might be a bit off-topic, but if my radeon 4200 doesnt run fallout 3 at least at 45fps even at the lowest of the low settings, is it possible to overclock slightly? this is a lappy im talking about

 

Hey, I was wondering at what settings I would be able to play Left 4 Dead 2. Thanks in advance! if it's possible at all, please tell me llol thanks.

CPU: AMD Turion II Dual Core M500 (2.20 GHz, 1 MB L2 Cache)
GPU: AMD M880G with ATI Mobility RADEON HD 4200 (IGP, but 128 mb display cache)
RAM: 4096MB DDR2 SDRAM (2 DIMM)
Display: 1366 x 768 (15.6" screen)

btw the box it came in says ATI Radeon HD 4200 while my system tells me it's ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200..

any difference?

 

should run fine on med settings with lowered res. it might be low -med though but you will be able to play it. And its called ati mobility radeon hd 4200 since its in a laptop

 

thanks a lot for the reply~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I need to know if this system will run World of Warcraft at max settings with 1600x900 resolution:

Intel® Core™ i7-720QM processor
(1.60, 45nm, FSB1333, 8MB L3 cache, rPGA989)

4GB DDR3 1066/1333MHz

ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 4570
512MB GDDR2 Video RAM on board

Thanks!

 

max settings? yes. from 3.2 patch, not sure what settings they may have added in 3.3

 

Will my computer run Frontline: Fuel of War? What settings?

Core 2 Duo SU7300 @ 1.73ghz
Gefore 210m 512mb GDDR3
4GB DDR3 1066mhz

Native res is 1366x768

 

Should run around medium settings

 

Left for Dead 1 on a G51VX-X3A (P8700 CPU and GTX 260M GPU)?

 

Dude c'mon ) it would be an insult for the machine not to run it on mega-extraterrestrial-ultra-hyper high

 

LOL, I figured. But this is literally my first PC game that's newer than C&C Generals. I bought it last night on Steam for $7.50. I was thinking about picking up Dragon Age for PC cuz I heard it's better on the PC (less glitchy, but I have a 360 hooked up to a 62" HDTV. My daughter/wife monopolize the TV sometimes so I don't know which to buy it for...... decisions, decisions.........

 

Got kind of buried on the last page. Any answers? thanks again!

 

Everything should run great on 1280x720 maxed out and removing AA 'xept WiC, the 200M series suck at processing that game on high details, dunno why. Also I'm not too sure about Dragon Age as I've not presented any interest in it, though i should...

 

thanks for you all your help

the total war games are the ones i'm most concerned with, so high/maxed at the res you pointed out and maybe mid/high at my native res?

 

Posted a couple of pages back but no one replied Was wondering what sort of FPS I'd get in Counter-Strike Source and how these specs would handle recent games (like Modern Warfare 2, Left 4 Dead 2 etc)?

Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor P7450 2.13GHz
4 GB of RAM
NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 230M GPU
1366 x 768

Cheers

 

You should be able to run them all at max settings, especally CSS

 

Hey,

SPECS: (MSI Wind U230)

-AMD Athlon Neo X2 @1.6Ghz
-ATI Radeon HD3200
-2GB RAM
-1366x768 12.1"

Hey, I was wondering if my laptop can handle Fallout 3, GTA IV, Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer, Dragon age: Origins in medium or high settings. The Specs are:

CPU: Turion TL-62 @ 2ghz (2.3ghz in Turbo Mode)
GPU: Geforce 9600m GDDR3 w/ 512mb Vram
RAM: 4gb SDRAM
Display: 1440 x 900

 

Medium settings will go fine.

GTA IV is extremely intensive though, so be prepared to lower the settings where necessary.

 

Thanks, your youtube video was also helpful as well. What's your experience of Modern Warfare 2's online multiplayer?

 

Low to Medium Settings on pretty much all of them.

 

M&B should be fine with med settings and maybe some settigns on high. That game needs a good cpu. It ran med- high settings on my old laptop with intel's x3100

 

Hi, wondering if/how well my computer (specs in sig) will be able to run Mass Effect?

Thanks

 

it might run on low settings

 

You are limited due to low-end GPU. However, low to medium settings will probably go flawless in most part of the game.

Honestly, on 13.3" laptop you couldn't get anything better than Radeon HD3470, so there is no place for complaints. Just imagine you had a GMA 950

 

nope not low, medium, my friend has a 3470 and 2.0ghz dual core and he runs it on med

 

Thanks for correcting my post

 

Acer 1810tz

CPU: Su4100 1.3ghz dual core
GPU: Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 4500 MHD
RAM: 3gb 677mhz might upgrade to 4gb 800mhz if you guys think its worth it

Just want to know if I can play Heroes of Newerth?

 

same laptop different games, and can boost ram to 4gb if it really makes a difference

quake 3,4
orange box
L4D 1,2
CoD 4,5,6
dragon age origins
assasins creed 1 (and 2 when it comes out)
thx

 

sounds good, thanks guys

 

Lowest setting, most likely. And you will have to down your resoulution, depending on average FPS and game flow in general.

You should not expect MHD4500 to play anything newer than 2008 year.

 

What can't I run with max settings on this laptop?

CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-820QM Processor (1.73GHz), 8MB L3 Cache, mPGA-989
GPU: nVIDIA® GeForce™ GTX 280M with 1GB GDDR3 Video Memory
RAM: 8GB DDR3 SDRAM at 1333MHz
Display: 15.6" Full HD LED Display (1920 x 1080)

 

shattered horizon native resolution and full AA although i'm not very sure.
AWESOME AWEOSME RIG DUDE

LE: I've heard Risen is pretty demanding. How well do u reckon I can play it?

 

sick man. is that the NP8690 you got? How about Trine max settings, full res and max AA/AF? try the demo out and let me know hehe
