DirectX 11

Im talking of this

DirectX 11 is software, we need to know the Graphics Processing Unit (hardware) your laptop has in it.

Go to Control Panel - system - device manager - display adapters.

Expand 'display adapters' and it will list the GPU you have (some laptops will have more than one)

I have Intel (r) HD graphics 5500

GTA V will not work on any of Intel's HD graphics. Sorry

 

[Gallarian]

Ah, thats an issue.

What that means is that instead of a dedicated Graphics card, you have whats known as 'integrated graphics'. This is only really designed for general computing and multimedia usage, not gaming.

Given that information I would say no you cant run it properly, it would be a waste of $60 to buy GTA for that laptop.

 

[OZEgamer]

Ahh

 

[Gallarian]

Sorry mate, I know its disappointing! Unfortunately you cant upgrade a laptops GPU, so its either a new laptop or time to get a PC/Console

Sorry no, the igpu is too weak to handle the game. Also the cpu is also quite weak as well as gta is a cpu intense game as well. Plus, you need more ram as it can take up 5 - 6 gigs of ram.

 

[Gallarian]

Wow.. way to hit the nail in the coffin there Velo... ^
