I am going to purchase a new laptop for Watch Dogs and other titles (BF3,BF4 ect) and need to know if the lenovo y50(860m maxwell) will satisfy my needs. I want to run the game at high or ultra settings. To me, motion is smooth at 40fps, so can I get there with these settings and this card? Can I run future titles too? T.i.a

watchdogs is a problem child for all machines, both portable and desktops. it's so un-optimised that most desktops with meaty GPU's have trouble playing it. With the 860M you'll get 60+ FPS at 720p medium. But any higher than that, and it all goes to shit really :/
titanfall max 1080p is 43 FPS.
BF4 max 1080[ is 30 ish. So turn down AA and you should be fine.
