Ow the edge.

Not much.
I mean I bet it'll run Quake 3 like a beast but I gather you have no taste and wouldn't be playing that anyway.

Those specs are horrible, anon.

Looks like you'll be stuck playing retro indie games until you get your head out of your ass and build a pc.

Almost anything, at lowered settings obviously.

I got this few years old laptop with mere i3 @ 2.1ghz, 6GB DDR3 and GT 540M 1GB, and it can run even some fairly modern games, like MGS5 and KF2, at 720p, Low, at 30fps (locked).

Anything pre-2012 runs just about flawlessly, such as the STALKER trilogy on DX9 lightning mode + mods. Emulators are good thing to have as well.

Just always make sure the games start with the Nvidia GPU! The "Optimus" system sometimes fucks up and thinks it can run some titles on the HD Graphics 3000.

Welcome to the new millennium, grandpa.
They don't really care what you do during your freetime.

Finland as well.

And he got 520, they are quite different.

>>331301051
Not to significant degree, really. Anything below GTX 550M is already non-gaming card anyway. Also that i7 really helps in his case, and the HD 3000 chip is also surprisingly capable, as seen here on STALKER, running DX8 lightning mode at 80fps average, other settings on high.

According to some YT benchmarks, 520M can get around 25-30fps on GTA5, 720p and low settings.

That's around the performance of a 6800GT I'd wager.

Basically anything up until 2010~ on low is my guess. It's weaker than what's in the 360 and PS3 by a good margin.

>>331302415
More like anything pre-2010 on med-high mixture at minimum, and anything afterwards with lower settings.

FO4 gets around 30fps average on that card apparently:

Low Spec Gamer is very handy channel in OP's case.

>It's weaker than what's in the 360 and PS3 by a good margin.
Check your facts again, bro. That card beats PS3 by a good mile.

GT 540M is an underclocked GT 550M lol

Really depends on which GT 520M he got, if it's a 96:16:4 then he should just overclock it a ton

if it's a 48:8:4 he won't be able to maintain even 30FPS

>>331302754
two 520's mate
>>
and if it can run Crysis 2, it definitely can run anything worth mentioning:
