Will This Run FS 13/15

Post by Bergman »

I have been looking at some options for laptops to play farming sim games and with every new farming simulator that is released the speed that my game runs decreases highly. So I'm looking at a Acer Aspire with the following equipment...

4th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-4200U processor
Features a 3MB cache and 1.6GHz processor speed with Turbo Boost up to 2.6GHz.
Intel® Core™ i5 processor
Features smart 4-way processing performance with a speed boost.
Intel® Turbo Boost Technology
4GB DDR3L SDRAM
For multitasking power, expandable to 8GB.
Multiformat DVD±RW/CD-RW drive with DVD-RAM support
15.6" LED-backlit active-matrix TFT-LCD high-definition widescreen display
With 1366 x 768 resolution showcases your favorite visual content in crisp, stunning clarity.
500GB Serial ATA hard drive (5400 rpm)
Intel® HD Graphics 4400

I am curious if this could run FS 13/15 on a medium setting? Any help or advise is helpful!

FS13 without mods maybe on medium, if you keep your vehicle fleet as small as possible and you don't store many bales or wool pallets. And if the RAM is clocked at 1600MHz (which I highly doubt).
FS13 with mods probably only on low.

Not much information on how FS15 runs, yet, but regarding the minimum requirement of 512MB VRAM and the iGPU, I doubt it will run at medium settings.

I don't have any specific sugestions. Just make sure it has a decent dedicated GPU.
