Thinking of buying this laptop. How good is it?

[Headsh0t_]

Hi there!

I live in India and I'm thinking of buying the lenovo y510p

The specs are different though:

I7 4700Qm(not too sure) quad 2.4ghz

Nvidia gt750M 2GB DDR5

8gb ram (ddr3, assuming its 1333mhz)

1TB HDD

How do you think this laptop will fair? Will it run gta v and watch dogs(considering gta v will not be as horrendous as a port that gta IV was. Also watch dog's bad optimisation is a test for the laptop)

What do you guys think of the laptop overall? Seems like a great mid price laptop!

Thanks

It won't run either that well perhaps GTA V a little better but Watch Dogs it will choke on.

It will really struggle with Watch dogs. Can't really say anything for GTA 5 though as it's not out yet.

Alright, thanks for your input

There's some benchmarks here:

that graphics card is awful compared to desktop graphics cards but for a laptop that's pretty good

It's better than my GPU

you think a 750M is better than a 6850?

I'm almost sure it is.  The 745m is like toe and toe with the 6850

edit: actually the 6850 is quite a bit better, idk where I saw that benchmark at

It's a good laptop.  Does the one you are looking at have SLI?

Yeah I see that now  :wacko:

Unfortunately the y510p sold here has only 1 GPU and an optical drive. Asked the lenovo forums turned out you can't ultrabay SLI a y510p w/ 750m

Shame amazon doesn't ship laptops from the United States

So right now people are saying that watch dogs will struggle. Damn. Apparently the worse mod increases optimization , how true is this?

It does improve optimization, however Ubisoft will be releasing a patch that will prevent you from using it.

Well. UBISOFT is trying to take ea's rep for "worst company" then

Oh well. I think it's a solid laptop. I don't plan on MAX OUT EVERYTHING!!!!1 but atleast play it at 1600x900 medium with fps above 30.

I saw some gameplay of it on YouTube and it seems to hold up pretty well
