Laptop will it run TM/now new pc

Post by wraith »

Hello everyone

No i am not back on TM just yet, but i am thinking of getting a laptop, as my big rig pc is just too dam heavy to keep moving it around...

here is some specs what i have been looking at

Windows 8.1
SPECIFICATION Processor Intel® Core™ i7-4710MQ Processor (2.4 GHz, 3.4 GHz with TurboBoost, 6 MB cache)
RAM Kingston 8 GB DDR3 (1600 MHz) (16 GB maximum installable RAM)
Graphics card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M (2 GB GDDR5)
Storage - 1 TB HDD, 7200 rpm
- 120 GB SSD

so what i want to know will TM run on this ok ?
also if anyone can point me to the right way for a gaming laptop max price around the £1000
laptops is outside my field and its giving me pains in my head which way to go.
really do not want anything else than i7 !

Bro, you are just fine with this laptop. Its an impressive laptop.
If you wanna play with more than 100fps, then simply dont use the highest setttings. Other from that, you should be just fine. Hf playing ;)

Rendering or playing on the absolute highest settings wont feel good ofc, but thats normal.
The neverending waiting game has to stop.

I'd say it's more than sufficient. Am running only Intel i5 with 8gb ram the important thing to do is set up multiple profiles for your game to run fast, average and high quality graphic settings. Your pure rally tracks are awesome.

Hang in there.

Once you test maniaplanet games if you could give a short feedback on fps, gpu usage and this stuff it would be nice to see the performance you have :thumbsup:
