A:Answer Yes, for almost all new games it can run at a pretty decent fps (50-60) on high settings at 1080p. For more demanding games, like the witcher, you might have to tweek the setting to medium but you'll still get a respectable 40-45 fps, which is definitely playable.For a laptop this cheap, it definitely is a steal. Also, you can use the money you save from spending money on an MSI laptop, alienware, etc. And buy another 8gb of ddr3l ram and a 256 GB sad sata III. With those investments in this laptop, guarantee you that you won't be dissapointed with your purchase.
