I have a elitebook 8440p and i want to play H1Z1 however, i wont waste money on the game if i wont be able to run it. i dont really care about the video resolution, only fps. so if i can run it at a good fps by running it on low id be fine with it. As far as specs go the processor is a Core i5-540M 2.53GHz. Its got 6 gigabytes of RAM and an HD i5 M540 graphics card. i dont know if it matters but its also a 64 bit. please tell me what fps it would run on and if its worth it to get the game. Please help. Thanks

H1Z1 is a very badly optimized game, the worst. Even beast pc's have problems.

The game isn't very graphically demanding, more CPU wise really.

I tried it a while ago on my powerful machine and I was getting frame drop all over the place, I refunded it and Valve were fine with it.

I would recommend you save your cash.

Your integrated graphics is only for 'displaying' really, you can play a few minor games like smite and certainly Hearthstone but any thing other than that and the laptop will struggle.

To game a machine needs a dedicated GPU.
