You'll have to play on low setting and the max FPS you'll get will be probably 30 with frequent drops. I think they are making it more optimized though. My specs are pretty similar and it is playable but frustrating how much it lags sometimes. It is a badass game and worth getting and I'm confident eventually it'll run better.
Um ...I heard all my stats for my computer is good but just the Graphic card is still a problem right ?
It'll run it fine on low settings. This game takes a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ supercomputer to run it on high. I'm talking a 4.5 Ghz processor and a state of the art $400 video card, seriously.
probably about 10fps
I am good on Low ... cuz low settings looks fine to me .... but i want a good FPS ... like smooth gameplay =) .... but it seems like it wont be happening cuz u said am gonna get 30 fps ... and frequent drops ... and maybe they will fix the fps and make it run better >.> thou the game just went on release
Nige1111- Atm my computer is Hp using a Intel Hd graphic 3000 and i get 8-15 fps ingame action .... the hell u talking about ? AMD Radeon HD7550m is a lot better than a Intel HD graphics 3000 that is why am getting a new Laptop
Well I played through the beta for like a year and it is WAY better now than it was but it still needs work. They kinda just had to get something out there cause it was going on like 7 years in development I think. If you like the game you can still have some fun playing it, but you will get some stuttering framerates - it is almost certainly going to happen. I think you should still get it though, it will be playable for the time being and hopefully they get it optimized more.
I already have the game ... and i believe if i play on low setting with teh AMD Radeon HD7550m ... i guess it will get me 30fps ingame action ... but theres some issues with the the fps .... i think its like a problem to everyone if they dont have a like a high top computer comapring to very few people ... so maybe they will be fixing it >? if not ... then i think i just wasted my 25$ and money for a new computer and it didnt help my Fps at all...
The FPS will get better in time and it is playable right now, you just can't get too frustrated when your frame rate drops from time to time. I am playing the game at LESS than 30 fps and having a lot of fun.
Well I agree with you ... i just hope they improve the FPS thing in time .... am trying to not get too frustrated ... cuz waited for this game for a long time
Year I hear you. I love the gameplay and wish they didn't go so crazy on the graphics. It looks gorgeous but it takes way too much processing power to play this beast!
Yea the graphics to me on Low looks good enough -_- being on high is like over-doing it in my opnion

I5 2500k at 3,8GHz runs it fine on highest but I'm using HD7950 too.
ImkoreanGG what do you think of My laptop stats ? how do you think it will go ?
Well first off, if you're buying parts, you shouldn't be buying a mobile graphics card. That's for a laptop, and it's extremely crappy.

Also you would only be running in single channel memory, since you need TWO like pairs to run dual channel memory. Thus the 4x1 + 2x1 gb means you won't have matching memory dimms, so you'll halve your memory bandwidth. Don't do that. You'll impact your performance big time.

That's also a mobile processor...pro tip...the M in the processor and graphics card means mobile. Meant for laptops. Well I guess you have a battery listed there, but still say 'computer'. Really you should say Laptop specs.

That video card sucks. It may be an ATI 7XXX series, but really it's basically a 8-9 year old graphics card with a few new features (basically as useless selling points) to be able to run blu ray movies, and theorhetically DX11, but not really. I mean depending on which version that is the DDR3 version has a 14.4 gb/s memory bandwidth and the DDR5 has 28.8 gb/s memory bandwidth. So really they are trying to fool you into thinking it's sufficient, when in no way. Things like that shouldn't even be allowed to promote it as DX11. Because you can't really use something like that for DX11. Hell the ATI 5850 and 5770 the first ATI series of DX11 cards couldn't do DX11 that well. But at least it COULD do it somewhat. The 7550m is so much worse than those cards.

An Nvidia 6800 Ultra from 2004 has 35.2 gb/s memory bandwidth. So basically even the top end 7550m model only has 80 percent of the bandwidth of a video card from Summer 2004 (or 8 1/2 years basically) has!

If it's the DDR3 one, wow, it's basically almost 1/3 the memory bandwidth of a 2004 graphics. So you're talking about newer tech slapped on the back of a foundation of 2001 or so tech. Wow. That's so archaic.

EVERYTHING will be overkill for your computer gaming wise (or laptop I should say). I wouldn't spend $10 bucks on a gaming computer that crappy. Seriously. If you're going to spend anything, you might as well get some bang for your buck. You can't blame developers for making graphics too good for that, you're basically running tech that's a decade old graphically!

Low settings (on some things medium) is basically xbox 360 tech or worse settings. Which is really weak. But you see the xbox 360 actually outputs games at 1024x600 or thereabouts. Not 1920x1080. So you'd be getting something worse than an xbox 360 and trying to game at higher resolutions. While it has more shaders, that's really it's only advantage over the 360. If it's the DDR5 version of the 7550m then a slight memory bandwidth increase. But then again the Xbox 360 used DDR3 memory (really it's termed GDDR3 and GDDR5, but you get the point). So that card is so archaic in it's guts that even if it uses newer GDDR5 memory it still barely beats a xbox 360 in terms of memory bandwidth. But also the xbox 360 is MUCH MORE efficient with those stats. So if you have equal PC stats, it'll perform poorer. Thus in real life gaming, the 360 was more powerful than the PC cards that were released around that time.

The thing is, when you buy a PC or laptop (that you wish to game with at least), you shouldn't get something that is basically obsolete from day 1. That basically is, graphics and gaming wise. Gaming as whole on a laptop is not ideal. Not only do you have a small screen, but the tech is behind and more expensive. So if you're looking to game, the cheapest and best way to get something decent is via PC. Whenever you go to a laptop, you end up with far less for the money. So if gaming is important, skip the laptop, and put it in a PC.

You don't need to spend alot, but if you're looking at 900 dollars you can get a much, much, much, much better gaming PC rig for that kind of money. WAY better. You could get a much, much. much, much better PC gaming rig for around $600. You'd have to put it together, but really it isn't hard.

Integrated graphics isn't even a card at all. The 7550m isn't alot better than an HD3000 series intel integrated graphics. I'd say they are about the same. Even if numbers seem 'bigger', overall, they are the same. Trust me on this. They are the same. Things are so much better than that, the number may be deceiving. It isn't way better, it's just as crappy. Whether it's 8-15 fps on low or 15-20 fps on low, that's crappy, and no way should someone spend money to upgrade to that.

One helpful tip besides read reviews of the various graphics cards is also to check out hardware comparisons. So google things like GPU comparison, and you'll find a list of sites that can help judge various cards based on things like memory bandwidth, texel rate, pixel rate. These things aren't everything, as there's plenty of other features like shaders, cuda cores, and what DX version it supports, etc.

Also that 7550m has a 64 bit wide memory bus. The 2004 Nvidia 6800 ultra had a 256 bit bus.

Laptops are really expensive and you get underpowered, old tech (a good reason is because of the power and heat limitations with laptops)

There really is no way to say it, gaming on that thing is going to be really iffy. 3 years ago for 1200 I got a (PC)...

i7 920
LGA 1366 MSI X58 motherboard
6gb ddr3 1600mhz ram (3x 2 gb triple channel)
ATI 5850
100 dollar computer case
Prolimatech Megahelms CPU cooler
A bunch of CPU and case fans
thermal grease
Win 7 home

That will absolutely blow away what you have listed for gaming. Not even a comparison.


I just ported in some hd's, monitor, dvd drive/burner, keyboard and mouse until I could replace those later one at a time. But I mean, I hope you didn't buy that thing as a gaming laptop.

As a school or business laptop, what you listed it'll do the job, but as a gaming laptop, no way. I still suggest you spend a few bucks more and get matching dimms for your Ram.

For gaming you really need about 1.5gb video memory right now to not be in trouble. So you should buy something with 2gb really. But 1.5gb is the bare minimum.

The 7550m only has 1gb. You can get by on that, but you'll need to have lower textures because of it. If you push the textures, it'll bog down your card big time.

I suggest Newegg.com for buying parts, usually cheapest or close to it.

But I wouldn't expect any game to run with such low end tech. These days the minimum specs on most games are like Geforce 7800 series (from 2005). In many ways that card you listed would get trounced by a Geforce 7800 series.

You don't have to go expensive, you just have to buy stuff that is competent. Otherwise you are wasting money.

At low you can't really get good FPS. It's such a low end, that if you have something that is good enough to game it at higher FPS, you usually can do higher settings.

So if you are determined to go with a lap top again two things.

1. get matching ram dimms to run in dual channel memory
2. get a much better graphics card. I wouldn't pay 50 bucks for that if my life depended on it. That's a rip off.
