How good will this laptop run Battlefield 3?

[mbreslin1954]

and yes the laptop i've linked you with is better since it has a Dedicated graphics and not the Integrated graphics. Think of integrated graphics of being cheap, mainly used for basic web browsing, powerpoint but they are weak when it comes to rendering 3d images in a game. Thats why you want dedicated graphics, dedicated graphics are better optimized or faster when it comes to playing games and having the eye candy turned on

The Asus he linked to, once you have Google translate it, says it has a GeForce GT 635, not integrated graphics.

Hi

This is very basic....

To Play BF3 at all you will NEED a dedicated graphics card in the Laptop NOT integrated...

Also forget Manufacturers battery figures..... playing BF3 on battery you will be lucky to get 2 hours on most modern lappies...

All the best Brett

To get a laptop for bf3's recommended specs you will need to spend around $1300. An i7 isn't needed but it helps alot.

1300$?

I spent 600$ and play maxed ultra.

You only need a 2500k or 3570k with a gtx 570 to get 60 fps

Why can't i edit my post..? it's annoying..

anywho by saying how good will it run this game, i am saying about in what graphics and resolution will you achieve 30+ fps...?

None. i7 means nothing to gaming. The GPU is everything, and that has a god awful one.

For a beginner gamer i would suggest that you get an MSI GE60 (around $939-$999) you can get one with an I7 3610/3630qm and GT 650m/660m

YOU NEED A DISCRETE GRAPHICS CARD to play modern day games at nice fps.
Always go for nVidia 630+ (Or 540+)
and go for Radeon 67XX+ or 77XX+
The laptop you listed is overpriced about $250 for its specs
