    Yes, it will run just fine, depending on what res you like to play at.

    But at medium resolutions and settings it's gonna run smooth.

    yes it will....my computer (specs in sig) can run it perfectly fine at default settings, except at 1280x800 res, and i get average 40 fps.


    why do ppl keep asking about css if they have a newer computer? css isnt a very demanding game you know...

    if he has a router for his broadband, he can just run an ethernet cable to his laptop.. if he has a wireless router, he can either buy a wireless card or most come with a wireless card now
