I know it's a very cheap laptop, but all I'm looking for is a playable 30fps or so with lowest settings and 720p. Here are the specs:

A8 4500m CPU
7640g igpu with 512mb ddr3
8gb ram


To give you a perspective, it runs skyrim at medium preset at about 35fps.
It handles source games without a problem. I saw the game requirements were pretty low for a next Gen game. It also handles origins without a problem as well.

Ehh...I dunno, maybe. Both Origins and Source games (unless the engine is heavily modified) aren't exactly demanding, and while your APU isn't too bad, it's no wonder they run. Also, Skyrim on a vanilla installation (no mods) and anything else than "maxed out" is relatively light on the hardware, if you got enough RAM, especially if you're playing at 720p.

Inquisition, however...
Even if it doesn't look too demanding, I get the feeling it's going to put quite the strain on your APU. Lowest settings @ 720p SHOULD be barely playable IMO, but requirements are never accurate even if they give a general idea of how something will run, so it's pretty much a stab in the dark I'm taking here...

If I were you, I'd wait and see for gameplays...

If I were you, I'd wait and see for gameplays and benchmarks done with hardware equal or similar to yours.
