It should run, but the CPU is a bit under the requirements so it might not be smooth at all times.

Is my gpu all right for the game?

shultzy101 :

Yes, the minimum requirement is the GTX 460, which is close to the GTX 750: http://gpuboss.com/gpus/GeForce-GTX-750-vs-GeForce-GTX-460

An A6 isn't exactly powerful, even taking into consideration an A10, you'll probably find performance lacking unless you're running perhaps 800x600 res and on low.

The CPU has hardly anything to do with the resolution since he has a discrete GPU.

Lower res means the GPU is not going to have to work as hard as say with a 1080p res. With Watch Dogs already recommending an i7 for just their 'Recommended' PC build, you bet the game will be CPU intensive. I don't completely agree as I believe that quads (i5) will do just fine), but that's a whole different point.

Point is, the game is supposed to be incredibly CPU intensive, with a whole lot of multiplayer and a seemlessly combined environment, it will require a lot of computing power. So if the GPU doesn't have to work as hard at 800x600, he'll likely have "smoother" gameplay than at a higher resolution. If it's even playable, that is.

enemy1g :

When you lower the resolution, all you are doing is taking away work from the gpu, and letting most of the work rest on the cpu. If you have a weak CPU like the OP but a decent GPU, there is no reason to lower the resolution. You will be getting the same performance with worse visuals, or even worse performance.

OP - will it run, as in will the game start? Probably. Will you want to play it with those specs? No, probably not. I'd suggest a CPU upgrade if you want to play it, gpu is fine for now. An FX 6300, 8320, or 8350 would be good, as would an i5.
