Day Z on a laptop

[chakijz 174]

Okay, so I'm going to get a new laptop in a couple of days, and just wanted to ask you guys, on what settings can I run it and how much fps can I expect? The specs are:

Asus N53SM

Intel® Core™ i7-2670QM (6Mb Cache, 2.20 GHz)

Intel® Turbo Boost Technology - 3.1 GHz

RAM: 6 GB

nVIDIA GeForce GT 630M 2 GB DDR3

Thanks in advance!

After some research, according to game-debate you should be able to run it on medium to high settings. But if your playing on a laptop I would recommend using a USB mouse.

I would never run such a demanding game on a laptop, despite great specs. Laptops do not have sufficient cooling solutions...

I play on Asus N55SL. It differs from your setup by 8GB RAM and by GT 635M 2GB nVIDIA card

this is my video settings: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1662634/arma2-dayz-videosettings.png (changed to windowed mode to take a screenshot, so resolution settings are messed up. I play at 1920x1080)

With all this I get something about 25-35fps. Quite playable, but i now thinking about buying gaming PC with powerfull video. :)

I have several nonstop gaming sessions what lasted more than 8 hours. No problem with heat, everything is OK.

I also record video without problems each time i play DayZ ( x264 codec.1920x1080@25fps)

My friend, who's a computer specialist, told me that Asus have a decent cooling and that I shouldn't have problems with it. If you can play for 8 hours with no overheating, then I'm assuming I can do it too. Thanks. :)

I have a Toshiba harmon/karmon laptop, sometimes it gets hot but It won't burn the drivers or anything in the laptop. It has a basic fan in it. I once had my laptop on for 24hrs straight downloading big gb steam games ( like mass effect 2 :D ). Trust me don't worry about cooling. Also I have a more worse laptop than that and I can play dayZ with good fps, The laptop your getting will let you play dayZ on medium settings with around 30-60 fps ( on servers ).

Thanks
