    Dead Island Minimum Reqs:

    Minimum:
    OS: Windows XP
    Processor: Core2Duo 2.66 GHz
    Memory: 1 GB RAM
    Graphics: ATI 2600XT 512MB VRAM (GeForce 8600GT)
    DirectX®: DirectX 9.0C

    So probably yes at low detail and probably even 1024x768 or 1024x600.

    Well the GTS160m is basically a 9800m GTS so you should be able to play at a lower res with good settings.
