Need some technical advice guys and gals, can my laptop run Skyrim?
 

Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T6500 @ 2.10GHz/2.10GHz
4 GB RAM
Windows Vista SP 2
64 Bit Operation System
ATI Radeon Mobility HD 4500 series

I had written Skyrim off as unfeasible for my laptop, but i figured i'd ask those in the know on this board just in case. Can i run this game at a smooth rate on medium or low settings?

Thanks in advance, hope things are well for you all in Norrath :p

i have a very similar PC... and this is a great question. I'd love to know too.

my laptop is a quad core 2.4ghr, 4 gigs ddr3 ram with same graphics card. running windows 7. skyrim ran very slow and choppy on lowest settings.

so i dont think it will. i ended up getting it for ps3

Considering Vista is going to eat up about half your RAM and tax your video card, you might be able to get 10fps at 800x600 with all settings off.

Skyrim only uses 2 gigs of RAM, it's capped.

Then you need to uncap it DUh.

yeah duh.
