I am looking to buy a Cosmos II laptop configured with the following specifications:

-Intel Dual Core i5-4200M (2.5ghz) 3MB
-4GB Samsung DDR3
-NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M 2GB DDR5

The types of games I would be playing would be World of Tanks, and RTS games such as the total war series, but I would like for the laptop to be have the possibility of also running games with higher demand. Do you think the specs above would work for this?

Thanks.

That card is mid level, would probably run games best at 1366x768. Lets say the res your playing at is 1080p, you should get around 40 - 60 FPS on most games, low - mid settings but you could get away with a few on high. The CPU would limit you in some areas also being a dual core, but not too much.

Generally I'd say it is sufficient for gaming, but not at the greatest level of detail. It really depends on the game too.

Higher demand games will make that pc struggle. To play those games you will need a more powerful CPU and graphics card.
