Can I run Hogwarts Legacy?

[imCreisi]

I have an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M (4GB) and required is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 4GB or AMD Radeon RX 470 4GB
Required Pixel Shader 5.1 and mine is 5.0
Required Vertex Shader 5.1 and mine is 5.0

I guess 30 FPS average. Probably less. Everything on low. 1080p.

As long as the rest of your system also meets the minimum requirements.

You won't have a great experience. There will be frame drops.

A 960M is less performance than a desktop 960.
So, as you are below minimum requirements, expect performance issues even on the lowest settings.

You will likely experience loss of frames/stuttering. "Minimum requirements" tend to be solid dividing lines between "can" and "should not."

Laptop cards before GTX 1000 series were considerably weaker then their desktop equivalents.
With a laptop old enough to have GTX 960M I doubt you have even remotely good experience playing this.

I do not reccomend you playing HL with that setup. Know, the game is currently filled with stuttering problems. Maybe you should wait and search for benchmarks videos.

the 960m is nowhere near strong enough if it requires the desktop 960

even now the laptop gpu is weaker same numbered than desktop gpu
but now they are no longer 'm' because they have the same core config as desktop, just much weaker power delivery and cooling

Experience will be dreadful

Other have already gave good enough answers, but I'm surprised the GTX 960 is the minimum requirement. Did this change in the very few days leading up to release? I remember a discussion about this in the recent past (last week or two) and I remember checking and seeing the GTX 960 was below minimum requirements. Am I getting mixed up on the game I was checking, or were the requirements recently listing something higher, like maybe a GTX 1060 as the minimum?

They lowered the GPU requirement. It was a 1070.

Edit: Whether they lowered it or not is debatable. They lowered the minimum requirements on paper, but along with that lowered the expected performance.

Might as well have said minimum requirements are a 650 ti for 10 fps 480p.

It runs in my laptop from 2018 with a mobile GTX 1050. I have to keep it plugged into the wall though or else it's not powerful enough.

It's the same with cyberpunk. I have to keep the laptop plugged into wall outlet to get it to perform.

My goal here is 1080p 30fps utilizing FSR 1.0. I'm doing the medium preset with FSR 1.0 balanced and 1920x1080.

My fx-9590 desktop does much better with a gtx 1070. He runs the high preset at 3440x1440 and FSR 1.0 ultra. I'm right around 50 fps outdoors and ~ 75 indoors.

I played offline last night testing both computers and doing comparisons.

Even the 1050 outperforms a 960M by quite a bit.

So I actually went through a few of my recent posts and I had the game mixed up anyway. It was Forspoken I was referring to. I just remember that whatever game it was, at the time I made the post, the GTX 960 was below minimum requirements and I was mentioning it being so, since someone else was bringing up how it would run it. I probably thought it was this game given it's been the prime title of discussion in at least two active threads.

960m is about equivalent to a 750 ti. so if your happy with 720p 30 fps low settings then thats what you should expect .
