Will this computer be good enough to run newer games?

[User45]

Hi,
I am looking to buy a new gaming laptop shortly. I have been considering the MSI GE70 APACHE PRO (http://us.msi.com/product/nb/GE70-Apache-Pro-GTX-960M/#hero-specification). I just wanted to make sure it will be able to run newer games, like Far Cry 4 and Shadow of Mordor, on medium graphics and full resolution at at least a decent FPS.

The laptops main specs are:
CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-4720HQ 2.6GHz to 3.6GHz w/ Turbo Boost
Graphics: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 960M 2GB GDDR5
RAM: 12GB DDR3L 1600MHz

Far Cry 4's specs are:
2.5 GHz Intel® Core™ i5-2400S
8 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2GB VRAM

Shadow of Mordors Specs are:
Intel Core i7-3770, 3.4 GHz
8 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660

Thanks in advance for your help!

With those specs you should be able to run both games with a relatively stable 60fps @1080p with medium/high graphics options. You could run the games on ultra and still have a decent playing experience (probably around 30fps) personally I feel it is too choppy but that is up to you.
