I and I imagine many people want to find out what type of performance in the game we can expect from specific laptop CPU/GPU RAM etc.

There is lots of very helpful information on building a pc for the game that I've read and found it to match my experience, but it's still a guessing game when hoping for more than "it will work". Some specifics would be great.

I will add my experience in case it helps others with this same question.

I no longer have a laptop that I tried the game with, it WAS an ASUS G74Sx with:

i7 something quad core processor 2Ghz 6MB L3 cache
8MB RAM
Nvidia GTX 560M with 128-bit bus and 2GB RAM
SATA drives

Note: I do not have this laptop, i.e. I already know that "it will be fine".

With latest nvidia drivers I found:

Benchmark score: 3662 at 1280x720
Settings used in config: everything default except 1280x720 and 2xAA
Settings in game: all on, e.g. shadows

Experience: Compared to nothing, it was beautiful with no lag. But, I only played solo in low population areas.
