Hoping some of the more knowledgeable laptop users would be able to help answer this for me.

This laptop was on sale yesterday for $500, which seemed like a good deal for the laptop, and I was wondering if it might run 14 on low for times when I'm not able to play at home.

I made a post on BG and they said the Radeon HD 5470 wouldn't cut it, but I find that hard to believe. I don't know anything at all about laptop hardware or their GPUs, so I'm hoping Ket or Rid would see this and be able to help.

If anyone else plays on a laptop, your feedback would be awesome.

Its may work but I don't know if this ATI video card would work or not . even my lappy that was built in 2003 for FFXI that works but FFXIV was too laggy even with all setting turn down at lowest setting. Remember I been using vNidia video cards most of time so I know their specs.

I gave a laptop to Terathus that has similar specs and it runs xiv fine on minimum settings (it's a Lenovo T500). The only thing I'm not sure what video card that's in there, but I'll check with him and let you know.

That would be awesome. Thanks Emilia

Yeah, I'm 99% sure that thing has onboard Intel graphics. The laptop can run it 'okay' at minimum settings; it doesn't affect his game too much.

Don't click this link.

http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=4565 here is a link to the specs of the laptop I told you about. I have the version with the Radeon 3650 card. I think the one you linked should run it.

The only problem is I'm not sure how much of an upgrade the 5460 would be over a 3650. Still not sure exactly how AMD numbering scheme works exactly.

Oh well, if I catch another one on sale for a good deal I think I might go ahead and get it. If it can't run the game oh well. Thanks for your input guys.
