6GB ram

[bombonel]

Hello!
I have a gaming laptop with the following specs:

CPU: Ryzen 7 3750H
GPU: Nvidia 1660ti 6gb
RAM: 6gb

Would there be major lag because of the ram?

EDIT: system has 8gb ram,however the CPU has an integrated GPU which is using 2gb of it,making only 6 available

Given that the game normally uses 10-12 gigabytes of ram if it's available, there's definitely gonna be an issue. You might wanna disable your integrated gpu and push the ram to 8gb.

8GB definitely seems to be cutting it close, but I don't know if you'll suffer from major performance issues because of it. Some do, and then you have others reporting it's working ok. Doesn't help that everybody uses different configurations paired with different graphics settings either.

It's still a given that you'd undoubtedly benefit from extra RAM though, if there's room for an upgrade.

I don't know if you've already played the game before, but if you haven't - it's got a circa 2 hour intro before the full world actually opens op. The intro area is rather small and compact compared to the rest of the game. It's not great for measuring your overall performance throughout the rest of it. The game does have a benchmark which covers several areas of the world including the biggest city, but I've personally only found it to be useful for measuring the average framerate. Any in-game stuttering may not be occuring during the benchmark, but can still happen in those same areas during actual gameplay.

Thing is, by the time you're able to start doing any sort of proper testing (unless issues arise right from the start, of course) your refund window will have already expired.

If this is something you'd be concerned about you do have the option to skip the intro (Chapter 1) by downloading a save file that immediately takes place afterwards (Chapter 2).

Thought I'd share this info with you at least, if you weren't already aware. It's helpful to know if you'd like to do a decent amount of testing while still being able to make up your mind about whether or not you'd like to keep the game.
