I just bought a new laptop, lenovo ideapad 110 but i get like 13 fps in watch dogs on the lowest settings.

My specs are
Processor:AMD A9-4900 Radeon R5,5 Compute cores 2C+3G 2.40 GHz
Installed memory (Ram) : 8.00GB (7.11GB usable)
System type:64 bit operating system, x64 based processor

Is it normal that im getting 13 fps on watch dogs or does my laptop have a problem
Please Help
Thank you
 
Well actually it doesn't have that good of specs.

CPU is a dual core and has old architecture
GPU is an ancient AMD R5 which is a £30 internal GPU.

You don't have a powerful dedicated GPU just an old low profile R5.

That's an office laptop.

I was actually getting around 5 fps at start but then i updated my display adapters now i get around 13 to 20 fps
so... i don't know if that was worth mentioning
 
The only comparison I can find show that the minimum requirements GeForce GTX 460 is many times higher than AMD Radeon R5, 5 Compute Cores 2C+3G graphics. Integrated in the AMD A9 APU. So, you are way under the minimum requirements. Finding direct comparisons between integrated and discreet graphics is difficult. With such an age gap, very difficult. The numbers suggest, at least, a huge performance advantage for the GTX 460.

You should of done more research before buying that old thing.

Is this worth mentioning? I was getting 5fps just in the start menu of the game. Then i decided to update one of my drivers called Display Adaptors after that i started getting 13 to 20 fps.
 


Not really...
