Will FS15 work with my new laptop?

[cedricthecat]

Apologies as I know this has been asked countless times before....!

I've been playing FS15 on PS3 for ages now, but have effectively done everything I can I noticed a few days ago, someone asking if they would be able to use their current PC to play the upcoming FS17, and a kind soul pointed them towards a site which analysed their machine and then cross reference this against games. I did this my new laptop, and not surprisingly, it told me it wouldn't handle FS17. However, out of curiosity I ran it against FS15 and it said it would work!

Now, I don't want to buy FS15 for the PC if it turns out it won't run it, or would struggle, but equally, if it would cope, I'd love to have a go at some of the mods I've read about!

Can anyone give an opinion on the specs?

• Windows 10 64-bit
• AMD A4-6210 Quad-Core Accelerated Processor
• Hard disk 1 TB
• 8,192 (4,096 + 4,096) MB, DDR3L RAM (1,600 MHz)
• AMD A4-6210 Quad-Core Accelerated Processor with AMD Radeon™ R3 Graphics

Any advice appreciated!

That is a horrible laptop. My laptop has the R5 and it kind of struggles, even on low settings (around 40fps or so, not very good, and yours would probably get close to 30 or even 20fps, which is not playable), I would keep looking. Plus the A4 is really, really bad for gaming.

Get a desktop with a Intel i3 or AMD FX 4xxx and a GTX 750 Ti or higher to get High settings.

Get these parts for a desktop:
Intel i3 or higher, AMD FX 4xxx or higher (6xxx - 6 core or 8xxx - 8-core); between $50-$190
What ever socket is for Intel i3 or higher, AM3+ for AMD CPUs motherboard; between $70-$140
GTX 750 Ti - around $130
8GB RAM, doesn't matter what speed
Get a good case, like an Apevia X-Dreamer or something.

Laptops are not even worth your time, unless you want to spend $1500 for an "official" gaming laptop, but still, desktops are more superior in many, many ways!

I hope this helps you.

Edit: If you need more help deciding and stuff, I am here to help, and so excited to help someone with building a computer! I may be young, but I know a lot about them than most.

Fair enough!

I'll put FS on hold for a while then, until such a time as I can afford either a current generation console or a gaming PC!
