KSP on a laptop?

[EventHorizon]

Afternoon space travelers,

Do you think KSP will run on mobility 4530 graphics?

What would you recommend as a minimum laptop graphics to play ksp? (im looking at 2nd ebay deals not new stuff)

Thanks

a 4530 might do ok on low graphics settings but i wouldn't expect high framerate.

ideally you want a Nvidia GT 750M or a AMD HD 7850M if you want to run mid to high graphics with little to no framerate drop @ 1080p.

if you are running at 720p then GT 635m or a 6770m should just as good.

make sure it has at least 4gb of memory and the processor is above 2.2ghz with more then 3 cores (4 is good, 6 is better, 8 is best).

Best of luck.

@Grim (quoting doesn't seem to be working) more cores is most definitely not better. The only time more cores is better is if you do work with video editing or other highly threaded workloads. For gaming, particularly KSP, you want 4 cores and the highest darn clock speed you can get. On a laptop, you'll be lucky to find 3GHz.
