At best you will be running about 30 fps with a full gate on supercross. Your graphics will have to be adjusted accordingly..since that graphics card will be holding you back and it's a laptop. Prepare to overheat or get a fan for it.

Your best bet would be to build an AMD based desktop for dirt cheap and you will much better results

I had about the same specs on my laptop and I couldn't even run 15 riders on a national with stock models and really low graphics. Definitely takes away from the experience you get playing this game.

AMD. Lol.

DDavis, it isn't that we aren't listening to you, it's that you aren't listening to us. If you want a computer to travel with get a laptop. I you want a computer to play sim on you need to get a desktop. Going to have to make the decision on your own. We're just trying to point out that there is no laptop on the market that will do what you want. Have to choose one or the other.

Well there are plenty out there. Just none worth buying (imo) Laptops are over priced. And you want one where you can play simulators, photo edit and who knows what else. So that's why a desktop is really the better option like others have said. If you are just net browsing, I think we would all be suggesting a laptop

I was talking to DDavis not you. You missed the point of my post so badly that I would be embarrassed if I were you.

You were speaking to DDavis using words like "we". Speak for your self please or others who have recently posted will comment on your post. I totally missed the point of your post because you are technically repeating everything we have been saying. Go figure, I see you like to hear your self talk. But of course you made one idiotic statement that I just had to point out..

I'll try to be more specific when I use "we" from now on.

For your own personal reference I will never group you and I together, so next time I use "we" inappropriately you are safe to assume that you are not a part of that grouping. I thought since you we're recommending laptops to him that you would have gotten that this past time, but you clearly did not.

Cool face insult, I've seen people banned for less...

Your right. I stand corrected. I was doing just fine until you came. Not saying you didn't give helpful feedback but there is no need to be rude to ppl like you are %90 of the time.
