The only game that is working fine is GTA V (High settings with 30+ fps) however there is some weird screen flickering, and dying light, the game is running on low with 20-30 fps. I am not sure how much fps for far cry 4 but it's laggy too! his old laptop might have performed alittle bit better
His specs:
6GB RAM
Intel core I5 4210U
R7 M260 2GB.
Old laptop specs:
4GB RAM
Intel core i3-2350M 2.4 GHz
GT 520MX 1GB
He have windows 10 however he is currently updating to a new driver update that came 3 days ago i think, but i don't think that would change anything much! need help?
If you want to play newer games at high FPS on a laptop it will require an 880M/970M/980M as a minimum which can get pretty expensive. My last laptop I bought last year has an i7 and 880M and cost $2,500 at the time with the rest of the hardware. I'd recommend either lowering the resolution or just building a cheap gaming desktop that can get you better performance for less $$. Or just lower the resolution and turn off stuff like AA and see if you can bump the performance until it is playable on that laptop.
Well he is sad and I thought I would be able to help him somehow, his laptop was a gift by my father so I guess I could have expected that. honestly thought it would run good because I thought it was just a mobile version of the R7 260 which is a decent card and thought that the performance decrease would be just alittle bit, however i just i am wrong.
Yeah, unfortunately mobile gpus never correlate to desktop numbering in terms of performance; like my 880M is around the performance of a GTX 760, not a 780. He can still play a lot of games at good FPS at 1366x768 or 1024x768; looking at that link I posted you: Bioshock Infinite, Starcraft II, Grid 2, Tomb Raider, Dead Space 3, Far Cry 3, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, Medal of Honor: Warfighter, Dishonored, Diablo III, Mass Effect 1-3, Skyrim, Battlefield 3, Batman Arkham City, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Dirt 3, Total War: Shogun 2, Mafia 2, Resident Evil 5, Company of Heroes, Dota 2, Total War: Rome 2, X Plane, Call of Duty: Ghosts, Wolfenstein: The New Order, Sims 3&4, FIFA 15, F1 2014, and Battlefied: Hardline all show as playable at 30 FPS or higher at those resolutions, it's just the newest and/or most demanding ones that will be out of reach like Witcher 3/Crysis 3 etc.
