diggler75 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I've got a new laptop that just can't cope with FM, even when I close all other apps. It's an HP machine with 8GB and a 1.9 ghz processor. It cost me £500 and I can't even play FM. It's seriously doing my head in. The fan goes into overdrive and sometimes the laptop just dies. I'm thinking about buying a Lenovo because my last one worked like a dream when I was running FM 2012. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
haunted1234 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 maybe post your spec? did you buy a ultrabook? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nine_iron Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 i5 2k @ 2.4 , 8GB RAM. Cost me under £350 over 18 months ago and runs FM a dream. Was a good buy! 6GB RAM or more and an i5 series processor (@ decent speed) gives you more than enough to run FM well using onboard graphics. The newer i5s will be even better I bet!

Guarnere Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 It's an HP machine with 8GB and a 1.9 ghz processor. It cost me £500 and I can't even play FM. You got screwed. £500 for a laptop with a 1.9GHz processor is as overpriced as paying £60 to see a Chelsea match. I suspect it to be an ultrabook though? These are all overpriced anyway. Just took out a random UK website because I don't live there, so unfamiliar with any shops there, but take a look at these for instance: http://www.saveonlaptops.co.uk/Lenovo_Z580_1336871.html (available in multiple colors) http://www.saveonlaptops.co.uk/Lenovo_Z580_1336874.html (same one, just more focused on graphics and slightly less on processor power, depends on what you prefer) http://www.saveonlaptops.co.uk/Acer_Aspire_V3-771G_1303142.html ------------------- For my own specs; Intel i7-960 @ 3.2GHz, 6GB DDR3-1600, Palit GeForce GTX670 (2GB). Just need a little extra RAM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leon_fogo Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Friends, the normal processing delay in the passing of the day is more or less how many seconds? And from what I saw in the specification of minimum requirements for fm 13, has to be 2.2 ghz or higher, this would be a single core? For what vision Compraré a quad core, soon to be 4 x 2.3 ghz right? And will the fm 14 will be much heavier than the 13? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leon_fogo Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I love to play fm 2013 with 50,000 players loaded, the more I noticed a slowness in processing the game (passing day) my current pc is a second generation i5 2.4ghz with 8gb of ram, and video card integrated, will this pc here that I buy will run the game well? and possible new versions ? http://www.fastshop.com.br/NOTEBOOK-ASUS-COM-PROCESSADOR-INTEL-CORE-I7-3610QM,product,UXN46VMV3081H,.aspx Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well my HP laptop cost £400 and runs FM 13 super fast, has an i5 processor with turbo boost, 8GB Ram and all that lark. When looking for a good spec laptop at a cheap price, it prob helps having an IT Tech in the family to help out Funnily enough, it's about the same spec as that one you talk about for £500, yet it's HP who you work for and 100 cheaper!
