    Is my Laptop capable of running Skyrim?

    Sorry I am not the best at assessing this stuff but I have been playing Skyrim on Xbox and they are now releasing a legendary edition so I thought I might get it for my laptop.

    Are these specs good enough to run it?

    Windows 7 64-bit
    Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2450M CPU @ 2.50GHz 2.50GHz
    Installed memory (RAM): 6.00GB
    AMD Radeon HD 770M/760M Graphics

    thanks,

    The only reason to get Skyrim on PC is the 1000s of mods out there. Well, that's the only reason to get Skyrim at all, unless you have a thing for mediocrity.

    There are literally thousands of people who enjoyed Skyrim and do not find it mediocre. I am not sure what the problem is with people enjoying different games. but I would prefer it if you would stop politely bashing other gamers gaming choices.

    Use this if you're ever unsure whether or not your computer can run a game.
