Hey I thought i mine as well post my specs. If anyone could give me an idea if They think I could run it would be great. I was able to run RO2 very well. Not at the highest possible settings but it played well on high settings.


Windows 7, 64-bit
Intel(R) Core (TM) i7-3610qm CP @ 2.30Ghz 2.29GHz
16Gb Ram

Really hoping I can play it on my current set up.

You omitted your video card.

But based on your other specs I doubt you'd have any issues. How well it runs is another matter. But your ram is overkill, your CPU is well within performance tolerances.

Your graphics card is the only questionable thing since you didn't state it.

It's possible he could have been reading off the Windows Computer properties page too.

Anyways, the Intel HD Graphics 4000 does support up to DX11 shaders. If I take that as a sign of its modernity, I'd say it will be able to at least run the game.*

Like most integrated GPUs that at least support the features to run the game, the answer generally is "Yes, if you don't mind turning down settings to get the desired FPS."

*never take spec advice prior to knowing the actual game specs

Thank you guys. Hopefully it will last me till I can buy a good desktop.

My laptop is pretty bad, i can run csgo, dota, kf 1 pretty well tho and a few other decent games, like l4d2 half life, gmod ect ect. So will i be abel to run kf2? I really dont care if its on lowest settings, as long as i can play it D:. Please allow us to remove alot of graphically heavy options in the game so we the poor people can run it lol.

Just a general tip if you have not done it already, (and if you use windows in the first place).
Go to control panel --> Energy/power control --> Set it on high performance.
Your PC in general will also perform better and a bit in games aswell :)

Theres no way you'll be able to play KF2 comfortably with that computer op. I don't think any amount of lowest settings will even bag you 10 FPS.

If money is an obstacle, then go for an AMD APU build, it can be done for $300 or less.

Spoiler!

If you have any idea for a decent gaming laptop, id prefer a laptop over a desktop at this point in time. Used to be a desktop fan but the laptop is more convenient. Something not too expensive, around 500-600$. I looked around a bit but im not that good with pc specs ect ect. something from amazon/ ebay or newegg works. Thanks for taking the time again i appreciate it.

"Gaming" laptops don't exist unless you want 40 minutes of battery and $2500 for the performance of a $600 PC.

Batter doesnt really matter, the one i currently have can run most games and its fine, it was around 200 $, but i wanna play kf2 when it comes out.

Edit: If its alot better to just get a desktop for that same price, then i guess ill get one. (Ill build the suggested one by Arblarg)

"Gaming" laptops don't come in the $600 price range. If you're intent on getting a laptop you need to look for something that has at least an i5 and a GTX 860m or better. It's going to cost you quite a bit though ($900+). A desktop with much better specs can be obtained for $600 easily.

I had decent laptop few years ago and got it for 899.99 EUR. But that ***** started screwing me, screen was losing signal, sold her, and don't want another one.
