Can the ThinkPad E14 Gen 6 run Stellaris?

Stellaris by Paradox Development Studio: the publisher’s own minimum requirements, compared with this exact laptop.

Minimum requirements

Likely meets minimum requirements

Likely meets recommended requirements

The publisher lists GeForce GTX 460 (tier 2), AMD Radeon RX Vega 11 (Ryzen APU) (tier 1), Intel HD Graphics 4600 (tier 1); we compare against the highest-class alternative, so the requirement is tier 2. CPU + integrated GPU (PSREF processor table) — Intel Arc Graphics: LIKELY. Intel Arc Graphics is tier 2; the requirement is tier 2. CPU + integrated GPU (PSREF processor table) — Intel Graphics: UNKNOWN. Intel Graphics has no tier yet, so it cannot be compared.

Which configuration do you have?

This laptop is sold with 2 graphics options and the answer can differ. Pick yours — nothing is stored.

  • CPU + integrated GPU (PSREF processor table) — Intel Arc Graphics: Likely meets the minimum requirements. Intel Arc Graphics is tier 2; the requirement is tier 2.
  • CPU + integrated GPU (PSREF processor table) — Intel Graphics: Not judged for this configuration. Intel Graphics has no tier yet, so it cannot be compared.

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.
