hey, turns out I had to go back to my laptop it's a long story, but I'm having trouble understanding the requirements

 

would an i5 3210M dual core with 2.5Ghz, a GT 635M and 6GB RAM run GTA 5? it runs GTA 4 okay for comparison, it's a Lenovo Z500 if anyone wants to research

 

if I can run it at all with okay fps I'm happy

Sounds pretty close to the minimum specs. My best guesstimate is that it will run at about 25-30FPS at 1360x768 or 1280x720 resolution. You probably won't be able to hit 60FPS unless you do some impressive performance tweaks at the expense of graphical fidelity.

Wouldn't the GT635M be equivalent to the GT440? It's slightly slower than a 9800 GT which is the minimum required.

 

Even if you got the game running I would not expect anywhere near an enjoyable experience.

you could try overclocking, I do that to my Nvidia GT 630, and I run ArmA 3 on med-high at constant 60 frames.

 

then again, I'm on a desktop with an i7-3770, which is also overclocked.

 

basically, you might be outta luck, unless you play your laptop in a freezer.

You'd probably either burn your entire house down or simply obliterate your computer before being able to achieve a decent boost.

personally I don't even care about 60fps or quality, long as I can run it with playable fps I'm fine

It would be a waste of 60 quid in my opinion. It would be a much better experience playing it on PS4 or Xbone. 1080p medium/high and 30fps. With your setup you're looking at 720p everything to low and 20 fps if that. It wouldn't be a good experience is what I'm saying.

I've been playing GTA SA on SAMP since like 09 with 30fps and none of that ENB stuff and enjoyed it

 

I don't even mind low quality coz all my games run at low quality, question is will this freeze a lot or run at playable fps
