Hi all, i'd first just like to say that I am not computer savvy in the slightest and these problems I am having are probably simple, but I just can't get this straight. It involves system requirements for playing games on my laptop. First, I'll just list my laptops hardware.
Processor-Intel Core i7-2630 QM cpu @ 2.00 GHZ
Ram-6 Gigs
Video Card-Nvidia 550
Operating System-Windows 7
my problem is I am trying to run some modern games on this laptop, and I feel like they should be working, but they don't. I bought dead island, and the Can You Run It site said I am over the recommended system requirements and the game should run very smoothly. However, this game hardly runs at the lowest possible video settings. My question is, how can I tell if my computer can really run a game or not? I am scared to buy anything else now because I just don't know if it will work. Can someone help me with this?
