Hey all,

i have a laptop with a AMD Radeon vega 8 pre installed, now I would like to play a game called satisfactory. But some sites say my cpu is not good enough, but these sites also say I have a AMD Radeon RX Vega 8. Other site say a AMD Radeon Vega 8 is good enough. So I was wondering what you guys had to say about it.

"Satisfactory needs a Core i5-3570K 3.4GHz or FX-8350 processor coupled with a GeForce GTX 660 to run Satisfactory system requirements at minimum requirements. A machine of this performance will return around 30FPS on low settings. You should also have 8 GB system memory for min specs"

 

I assume you have a 2200g CPU with Vega 8 integrated graphics? It may "run", but I wouldn't expect you to get over 15-20 fps...even the GTX 660 outperforms a Vega 8 igpu and it is the minimum required gpu to run the game at low settings...

 

The Vega 8 is a great integrated graphics solution, however I believe this would be a tall order. Why don't you try installing a demo version and see if it runs...make sure you have 2 GB allocated to vram.

It's a matter of how satisfied you are... Vega 8 is a weak graphics solution at the same time it's a fine *integrated* graphics solution.

I don't think it will be enough,

 

The Vega 8 is half the power of the 660 best case scenario looking at benchmarks and the like.

This. Don't assume that a graphics solution is good just because it's modern. Vega 8 is a capable little 720p iGPU, but expecting much more of it on modern titles is a stretch.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

You have to overclock Vega 8 and memory competitively in a desktop to even match the desktop GT1030, which is still slower (despite the newer technology) than the GTX 660. On a laptop you're at best half the speed of a 660. Not enough without cutting down something big
