Minimum requirements
Likely meets minimum requirements
Likely meets recommended requirements
The publisher lists GeForce GTX 970 (tier 4), Radeon RX 480 (tier 4), Arc A380 (tier 3); we compare against the highest-class alternative, so the requirement is tier 4. GPU option (unpaired with CPU options) — NVIDIA RTX 1000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU: NEAR_MISS. NVIDIA RTX 1000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU is tier 3; the requirement is tier 4. That is one tier below the requirement. GPU option (unpaired with CPU options) — NVIDIA RTX 3500 Ada Generation Laptop GPU: LIKELY. NVIDIA RTX 3500 Ada Generation Laptop GPU is tier 6; the requirement is tier 4. The publisher states 4 GB of video memory and this GPU's video memory is not recorded, so the result is capped at LIKELY. GPU option (unpaired with CPU options) — NVIDIA RTX 4000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU: LIKELY. NVIDIA RTX 4000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU is tier 7; the requirement is tier 4. The publisher states 4 GB of video memory and this GPU's video memory is not recorded, so the result is capped at LIKELY. GPU option (unpaired with CPU options) — NVIDIA RTX 5000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU: LIKELY. NVIDIA RTX 5000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU is tier 7; the requirement is tier 4. The publisher states 4 GB of video memory and this GPU's video memory is not recorded, so the result is capped at LIKELY.
Which configuration do you have?
This laptop is sold with 4 graphics options and the answer can differ. Pick yours — nothing is stored.
- GPU option (unpaired with CPU options) — NVIDIA RTX 1000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU: Probably can't run it: just below the minimum requirements. NVIDIA RTX 1000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU is tier 3; the requirement is tier 4. That is one tier below the requirement.
- GPU option (unpaired with CPU options) — NVIDIA RTX 3500 Ada Generation Laptop GPU: Likely meets the minimum requirements. NVIDIA RTX 3500 Ada Generation Laptop GPU is tier 6; the requirement is tier 4. The publisher states 4 GB of video memory and this GPU's video memory is not recorded, so the result is capped at LIKELY.
- GPU option (unpaired with CPU options) — NVIDIA RTX 4000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU: Likely meets the minimum requirements.

How this was judged
Graphics chips are compared by class (an 8-tier rubric), not by benchmark score. The same tier as the requirement is only ever “likely”. Read the tier rubric and its limitations.
