Minimum requirements
Not rated yet
We can’t rate the Feature-level-only requirement (DirectX / OpenGL / memory size, no chip named) yet. Here’s what we could check:
- Operating system — meets (Windows 7, Vista, XP; this laptop: Windows)
- RAM — the publisher does not state a requirement
- Graphics — this laptop's graphics chip is not recorded vs Feature-level-only requirement (DirectX / OpenGL / memory size, no chip named): not rated yet
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.
