FrazT Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 The processor looks as if it is below the min spec and you dont mention a graphics card so it may not run the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexyfoot Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Any processor and graphics card name? Or at least when you bought it...1.3 ghz does not mean anything (except that it will be slow, but more info is needed to tell whether you can actually run the game)...or maybe laptop full name...

alexyfoot Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Ouch. You probably can run a couple of leagues with an acceptable speed (not fast, but still playable). 3D match engine-wise - should run on minimum detail. RAM-wise you are fine.

alexyfoot Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Mind you, if it is a netbook, I think there is some issue with the skin (not release yet or something) so bear that in mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexyfoot Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 It is a much better option for anything really, I (my sister actually) has one of those and it doesn't cause any problems, for FM they are good enough for normal performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also has a graphics card. Will FM work with this? Yes should be fine as long as you don't play a few other programmes along with FM as the RAM is only 2 GB and FM requires 1 GB RAM so you don't have much leftover but something like Internet Explorer + Skype + FM should be handled within 2 GB. The processor is OK to load a few leagues and the 3D should work on medium details. Good purchase. Good luck playing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurf Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 No way you can know how the graphics will handle on those specs? Not enough information. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexyfoot Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 The graphics is HD2000 Sandy Bridge of B950. I know what it can do with other stuff as I tested it back home when I was dealing with my sister's laptop (same processor). From what I saw from it, I think medium settings seems doable. Unfortunately, I didn't have FM12 back then to test it Worst case scenario, for fluid matches you will go down to low level...it isn't that bad for FM. The graphics card does 80 FPS on low level on FIFA 12 and 23 FPS on Racedriver Grid (again on low) - I don't think FM12 is any heavier for the 3D match engine than those two so should be fine on low and I think Medium, too.

David Ngog Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Will this laptop run FM12 well? http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/hp-pavilion-g6-1232sa-15-6-laptop-red-11290980-pdt.html Processor AMD Dual-Core E2-3000M processor (1.8 GHz, 1333 MHz FSB, 1 MB L2 cache) Operating System Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit RAM 4 GB - DDR3 - 6 GB maximum expandable memory Graphics card AMD Radeon HD 6380G Dual GPU -1 GB DDR3 dedicated - up to 1.98 GB total I think the graphics card is good enough to run matches in 3D? But the processor is only 1.8GHz and the system requirements say min 2.GHz on Windows 7. Would that make a big difference? If not what's the best laptop I could get for around £400 that would run it it quickly? THANKS! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dafuge Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 People here say 8gb is a waste in order to play FM, why is that guys?Thanks FM won't use that much memory, so it's only really useful if you are running other memory hungry things at the same time as FM.

thomit Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 To negate the slowing down over time the best, go with a SSD. Works for me. And folks; a laptop is a pc (personal computer) A pc can be a desktop, or a laptop. A pc can also be a laptop or desktop running on MacOS. A Apple personal computer is also a pc, whether it is a desktop or a laptop. My next laptop - which amongst other things will also be used for FM 2013, naturally - will most probably be a Clevo P150E (here under the guise Multicom Kunshan P150E), with a Core i7-3820QM processor, 240 Gb Intel 520 series SSD + a regular spin disk, 16 Gb 1600 MHz DDR3 RAM, and a Nvidia GTX 680M graphics card. The latter being totally overkill for FM, I know - but FM will not be the only game I will play on it. The amount of RAM is needed for other things than FM, but it won't hurt. The processor and SSD will be very handy for FM, however. This will be my only pc, used both for work and pleasure, so it needs to be this powerful. Well ... need .... let me rephrase that; the power of this pc will be very helpful for me. This laptop will most probably also be my last pc untill Intel makes it next giant leap in processing technology (Haswell). This laptop can be found under other names, depending on country and vendor. In UK you will find the same laptop but with other branding and model names - for example @ pcspecialist.co.uk, and pwnpcs.co.uk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ongy2k3 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Thanks. And as the savegame keeps going in size, whats the most important thing RAM or processing speed? Processing speed. To negate the slowing down over time the best, go with a SSD. Works for me. SSD & FM performance is pretty much a placebo effect. Whilst processing on full-detail, my FM.exe only read an average of 68Bytes/sec and a mode response time of 3ms (average 5ms). You are not going to notice that. Most of the data is in RAM, hence the low disk overhead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomit Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Nevertheless, I am experiencing no noticable slowdown with a SSD in my system, compared to what I noticed when I had exactly the same machine as now, only with a regular spin disk as OS/ system disk. I can't explain why, as it shouldn't matter much. But it does. The other thing is of course load and save times. With a SSD, I don't really notice the hold-up, or the little notice you get that says "saving game ...)" It goes by so fast I don't really have to wait moving on with the game at all. 3 file save every fortnight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herbert Fandel Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I'm sorry but I really don't know. I wasn't even aware the game was for sale in Germany. If there is nothing on the box or the manual, then I would try contacting SI customer service with photographic proof of what you bought. Or, buy FM 2012 from the internet again, it should be heavily reduced due to being old. I can't really suggesting anything else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 If the game was bought new, then it should have the authentication code on the box. If it was bought second hand, then the code has probably been used and cannot be used again and shouldnt have been sold. You really need to start by going back to the store that sold it.

Herbert Fandel Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 it's bought on second hand... they sold him copied game :/ I'm sorry to hear that. FM 12 should be quite cheap now, if you can find it anywhere, although I think they don't sell it on steam anymore to force people to buy the new one. Even FM 13 should be reduced at some point in the coming weeks. If I was you I would keep an eye out on the steam shop and try and buy it there.
