Is the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M really that bad for my needs?

[Cat_Overlord]

Will this graphics card completely ruin my gaming experience? I don't really care about getting the 60 fps on ultra settings for every game. I'd like to stay above 30 fps, with medium, high, or even ultra settings if the graphics card allows it. I will be playing Skyrim, Borderlands 2, and Arkham Knight for sure. Will I be able to play those at high-ultra at above 30 fps? This is the laptop I'm getting: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834232404

Depends on the game but I got a 840M and plays at 768p and sometimes high and somtimes low on settings. =)

As far as I've heard, the 960M is pretty decent for most games on med to high settings. I think it's supposed to run games likes GTA 5 on med with more than 80 fps, not sure if true though. Why don't you go check out some benchmarks on the games you play the most?

960M is good for 1080p meduim settings and some games on high settings

The 960m is basically a 750ti and will perform almost identically. It might not max the games you mentioned, but it will certainly run them fine.

It definitely wont be playing the more demanding games at max settings at 60fps, but tone down the settings a bit (medium-high-ish) and it should work just fine.

That gpu looks like plenty for the settings you are trying to target. Good choice and free mouse. If you can afford it buy an ssd seperatly
