Can I run it?

[Nicky Foo]

Intel Core i5-7200U,up to 3.1GHZ 4gb Ram Nvidia Geforce 940MX. If 4gb Ram change to 8gb or 16gb Can I run it?

[Nuit Alecxander]

on low or medium settings probaly

[Nicky Foo]

if 4 gb ram?

[Argenis]

That's probably a no if it uses 4 CPU threads fully, or it might run very poorly if it runs only on two. http://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i5-7200U-vs-Intel-Core-i5-4460/m153577vs2310

So if i change to 8gb Ram then i can play it?

Do you know if you can run RE7? The posted requirements are the same.

But, the RAM isn't really the biggest issue here. Many games that "require" 8GB can run on 4 with few issues.

You're running a dual-core CPU and an underpowered GPU. And since you're on a laptop, upgrading those will require buying a new machine.

Maybe you can get away with it on severely reduced settings. We'll probably see a public demo in the coming months, so you'll have to wait and see.

For reference, here's your GPU vs. the minimum requirements for RE2: http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-940MX-vs-Nvidia-GTX-760/m88506vs2159

Ok thank you all

940mx is garbage and yes you most certainly need to upgrade from 4gb of system ram to 8gb for any halfway modern gaming. I would normally suggest 16 gb but I dont think I would spend that much to upgrade that pitiful laptop.

that said this shows RE7 doing fine on all low at 720p for a laptop like yours but with 8gb system ram. https://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-940MX.156033.0.html

btw are you sure you do not have 8gb system ram? most of those laptops had 4gb of vram but 8gb of system ram. look in the top left of Steam and under help and get all your system info and post here.

that is a modern dual core core with HT so not just a "dual core". HT makes night and day difference on dual core cpu.

if my graphics card gpu from intel change to nvidia?

[Kuristaja / Urhox]

Intel's integrated gpus are garbage and shouldn't be used for gaming. Buy a cheap GTX 750 ti and it should run the game just fine.

If just add 16gb ram? my laptop alrdy have 4 ram so it goes to 20gb ram will the game can run smoothly?

Oh, fair enough. Nice.

Once again, the RAM isn't the problem. You could have 500GB of RAM and it wouldn't really help. You need a better GPU.

Ok Thank you

Well you certainly need more than 4 gigs of system Ram but it's up to you if you want to upgrade to 8 or 16. Your laptop probably has just one stick of 4 gig so you all you would have to do is buy another 4 gig stick so that would actually probably be the cheapest route to get 8 gig. Just make sure it's the exact same speed and timings for best compatibility.
