mh GPU looks a little bit too weak, my guess is you'll be able to play at minimum graphics and not a smooth framerate.

Oh and wait for standalone

for the money hes asking ... you could get a desktop that would most definitely run Dayz ...

if youre able to drop a grand get a desktop, you will be alot happier.

your laptop is most definitely able to run this mod: it's a high-end machine with decent processor, dedicated graphics, and plenty of RAM. go ahead and play with the advanced settings in ArmA, you can probably set visibility pretty high along with AA, HDR, VSync etc. hav fun!

however i second the posters above in that you could get even higher specs in a desktop machine for the same money

Bakst he won't be playing on high graphics with that

you don't think so? I would expect it to be enough for above-average settings, definitely not maxed out but decent enough given that the HD 5730 is still a mid-range graphics card by today's standards. The i7 quad-core CPU is also pretty good, even though they run at 1.6 GHz each, which isn't too much when you consider that not all four cores will be in use. Still, the i7 has performed very well in benchmarks (and also happens to be quite expensive). I would expect this machine to handle Day Z just fine on at least average settings.

remember, ArmA2:CO is a few years old, so the recommended system requirements are lower than newer games:

Processor : Intel Pentium D at 2.8 / AMD Athlon 4400+ or faster

Video Card : 512 MB VRAM with Shader Model 3.0 support – NVIDIA GeForce 8800 / ATI Radeon 4850

Memory : 2 GB RAM

Hard Disk : 10 GB of free Hard Drive space

Sound : DirectX compatible sound card

Direct X : 9.0c

Oh so wrong my friend, Arma2 engine crushes high end cpu's even to this day, nevermind a 1.6ghz & it's AMD graphics!, don't buy that pos lappy, you need to spend £1000.00 sterling ($1600.00) for a lappy that handles Arma2 well (in all it's glory, not all graphics etc on low), good luck.

i think he already owns the laptop. anyways, i guess it's true that ArmA is quite hard on system resources. i have a desktop machine with 4x 3.8 GHz AMD chip and HD series gfx card -- the game runs perfectly smooth on max settings at 3.5 km visibility -- but bottom line: desktops are always better for games than laptops. however, since the OP already owns the laptop, i'd say the game/mod can be played on it, just at low settings i guess and not medium-to-high settings like i said earlier. peace out.
