Technically speaking? Yes you can play it with mosest settings.
However it may not play nice with your hardware build and theonly way to know is to try it.
The refund time is 2 hours of play time.
Its a good game tho.

You could probably play it without the post-processing, but I wouldn't count on being able to stream it completely smoothly.

It should run well. My Laptop has only a 770m and 8 GB Ram, no problems what so ever.

You do know that the 770M is quiet a bit better than the 940M right? OP can definitely play it though, probably in the 30-40fps area without post processing.

What? I thought the Model Number goes up, not down... Oh well, its been years since i actually was into graphics cards and their specs.

Yeah but the important part is the second number. The first is only which series which only defines the age of the card basically. Nvidia has a numbering system going from I think 20 to 80. Each series (like the 900er series) has different cards for different performance/price ranges. 20-30 is the lowest of the lowest. 40-50 is lower end-mid range, 60-70 is upper mid range-lower high end and 70-80 is lower to upper high end performance. The 770M still has better performance than a 940M.

na thats how marketing gets people that are not informed, anything less tehn x50 is low range, anything x60 is mid, anything x70 is moderate, anything x80+ is ultra

i was slow, above post is clear

in regards to OP: it might run it, but im not sure how well...tbh

heres some info on your gpu


https://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-940MX.156033.0.html

and heres a youtube of someone claiming a laptop with 940mx playing subnautica

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PT-KBp6EnBQ

looks like you might get close / roughly 58-60fps with 1280x720 res..... if you can stomache that


im sure in the larger areas, once you start building multiple machines, visiting multiple important locations, you could potentially see drops closer to 30-40

and obviously the occasional studder

how did this derail into how much better graphic cards are?

Because someones post made it appear that because he can play it with good performance, you should as well since he thought your card is better while in fact his card is better.

Oh ok I'm not gonna get a new card though because it is a laptop and I don't want to accidentally break it
