Need help buying a gaming laptop?

Post » Mon Feb 09, 2009 11:23 am

Im buying a gaming laptop and not a desktop due to my lifestyle as im always on the go.

In the next day or two im going to buy an Alienware M15x.

The specs are,

Intel Core i7 620m
4096 MB DDR3
1GB ATI Radeon Mobility HD 5850
320 GB SSD
Full HD 1080p Screen

will this run crysis at max settings and how many fps at what res? and will these settings still be able to run crysis 2 when released?

Im new to pc gaming, so thanks in advance.

Hmmm.... You should be able to play it around Medium settings, or even more.
And yes you will be able to play Crysis 2, because the graphics are downgraded a bit (But still pretty) for consoles.

hmm, i think u can expect a good performance at medium settings and an acceptable performance at max settings if u dont push too hard in the resolution

Those specs should run Crysis 2 just fine. :)
