SteveTheCynic Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 It might, but equally it might not. The CPU's a bit slow(1), and I can't find anything that tells me what graphics chip it uses, which leads me to suspect that it uses the Intel integrated device AND (because there is no indication otherwise) it uses system memory for the graphics (rather than dedicated memory). Both of these imply that its performance will, quite frankly, suck. Avoid. (1) It's a 2.5GHz dual-core, which puts its performance well below my nearly seven-year-old i5-760, four cores at 2.8GHz. Mine manages, but not if shadows are on. For ... reasons, it was slow when I bought it back then, but this laptop is slower still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have one already, and want to try SWTOR on it, sure, go for it, but don't buy it if you know you'll want to try SWTOR on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorioko Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Absolutely not optimal, but it works and works well. I'd rather try running the game well enough, rather than not playing it regardless of hardware used But a new computer is always better, wanna buy me one....hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hwdbgjhfec Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 If you are going to be playing video games I'd highly recommend getting a PC. But if that is not an option then I would go for something a bit more specified for gaming such as a Lenovo y510p. You want to look for a good amount of RAM (6gb minimum) and a decent processor (I'd say minimum 2,8GHz). I used to play on a laptop with an external GPU using the EXP GDC. Worked out fine, a pretty big mess though but that's the last option. Or just save some money and get an Alienware or MSI . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bank account's still in shock after I bought a new PC for myself at Christmas. Of course it will probably last me six or seven years - the previous one certainly did.
