Could my laptop run Diablo 3?

[victortiti89]

Its specs: Intel Core I3-3110M(2,4Ghz, 3MB L3 cache) Intel HD Graphics 4000 up to 1760 MB Dynamic Video Memory, 4GB DDR3, 500 GB HDD
Could it run Diablo3? How about its expansions?

Minimum requirements are/were a PentiumD @ 2.8GHz and a 9800 GT.

The i3-3110M won't be a problem on the CPU front.
The iGPU though, is a little shy of a 9800GT....... so it'll be tough.

The minimum requirements are based off of 1024x748 resolution, which was common at the time.
I would assume your laptops display is likely to be 720p? 1280x720

720p is about 20% more pixels to drive, so the "minimum" GPU (which your iGPU barely equates to) would struggle to get by, even at the lowest settings IMO.

You can install a demo of Diablo 3 for free. Do that and see how it runs.

It will be playable but don't expect high FPS and spect a bit of lag (once in a while), Watch this videos for more information:

MERGED QUESTION
Question from victortiti89 : "Does it mean the full game will work?(Diablo 3)"

I wrote about this in another post, but since then, I downloaded the free trial version and it works perfectly(in my opinion). It automatically also downloaded the Reaper of Souls expansion. It loads a bit slow, but not much. I saw some default settings being on high others on medium...

Does it mean the entire game(or the game with this expansion) could also work? PS: I'm writing my specs again: Intel Core I3-3110M(2,4Ghz, 3MB L3 cache) Intel HD Graphics 4000 up to 1760 MB Dynamic Video Memory, 4GB DDR3, 500 GB HDD

Yes it will work just like the trial version
