Im new to the PC Master Race and guess what.. Im buying a laptop
and I dont know if my rig can play my favorite games. Here's my Specs:
CPU: Core i5 7200u 2.5-3.1ghz Dual-Core
RAM:6gb DDR4
GPU:NVidia GT 940mx 2gb (dedicated)

My Games
League of Legends
Minecraft
Kerbal Space Program
GTA SA
Paladins
Team Fortress
Sims 4

Please also consider what fps i can get each game.
PS. I will record using Fraps at Minecraft so you can deduct fps
PSS. Dont blame me for playing Minecraft
PSS. Also can I play GTA V at very low with 30~ fps?? With no stutters and spikes??

Minecraft will use as much CPU as you have if it needs it. Same with RAM, although at least with that you can tell it a maximum and it won't exceed that amount.

I've never recorded myself doing Minecraft. I did stream once or twice, but I'm not sure if that loads down the computer differently from straight recording.

DDR5 is currently only available on GPU's as GDDR5. Did you mean DDR4?

The 940MX might be a little underpowered for GTA V/Online, but at the very least it should be playable.

Edit:

The word "GDDR5" mysteriously poofled on me, weird.

So all the games will kinda lag??? But I have a very weak and old laptop ((A Celeron, 2gb Ram and an intel hd graphics)) and can run most of games ((not sims 4 and gta v)) in very low with mods((better fps mod)) and I think my new laptop is far better than the old...

My frames per sec. (old laptop) (all very low)
League -20fps 5fps during clash
Minecraft -30-3fps with mod
Kerbal -15fps
Gta sa -50fps
Paladins -30fps with mod
Team Fortress -50fps with great stutters and has mod

All the mod mentioned is Better Fps Mod/I tweaked the CFG files

Also Im not a fan of HD graphics.. I will play games that is on 800 x 600 (or lower) but wont lag or stutter. And also GPU overclocking can be done?? Its a laptop but I have a fan under. I know it will overheat here in the Philippines because its too hot.
