How well could I run Skyrim? Also, OCing

[Dougandharvey]

I'm pretty new to serious PC gaming; however, I recently ordered a Sager laptop from XoticPC. The specs are as follows:

RAM - 8GB - DDR3 1333MHz Dual Channel Memory
Graphics Card - nVidia GT 555M 2048MB
Processor - 2nd Generation Intel® Core™ i5-2520M
Hard Drive - 500G
Display - 1080p

How well could I expect to run, say, Skyrim or WoW? In addition, while I understand the concept of overclocking, I don't know much about it at all. What should I overclock my computer to? I don't want a major risk of damage; however, I do want some sort of graphical upgrade. Thanks!

Hi

Sorry to say you have made two mistakes...

1, Nobody buys a laptop for serious gaming....

2, Nobody overclocks a laptop as it cannot cope with the heat overclocking develops...

My best advice is exhange it if you can for a gaming PC...


All the best Brett
