Is this laptop good enough for gunz?

[Scandinivia]

- Processor: AMD A4-5000M Quad Core (1.5GHz, 2MB Cache)
- RAM: 4GB (DDR3 1600MHZ)
- Graphics: Dedicated (AMD Radeon HD 8570M with 1GB Dedicated RAM)

Hoping to get 250 fps, in all game modes. What do you think guys?

Good enough for a game like GunZ. FPS usually depends on the map though.
I could even play GunZ on an old laptop with a single core and <10Mb GPU memory.

Just set fps max to 250, if you have issues you can always use GameBooster and such or archtype.

Gamebooster lol

I'd doubt you could hit 250 consistently. My PC itself ran a 9800GT and a dual core processor @ 2.81ghz and gets some nasty drops at times depending on how many models there are in view. Though it's very old, it was powerful enough to play some modern games at decent framerates.

In addition, my laptop with a core i5 3320m with Intel HD 4000 (surprisingly good for the overall price of the laptop) and I cap at 250 frames with just only a few models in plain sight; after about 6 or 7 the frames begin to decline. Your only upside is that you have 4 cores blasting in, but we're also talking about an APU here.

Now, these are just my experiences, but seeing comparisons to your laptop, it seems it just may not do the job you want it to. Just see what you can do and hope for the best.

Doubt GunZ uses more than one core. What do you need 250 fps for anyway?

[Notorious]

FPS will be dependant on the map and amount of players in the room, plus the animations going on in the room.

250 is generally the rate where any higher it becomes unnoticeable. I once hit 400 and noticed no difference between that and 250, but anything considerably lower (~220) becomes less and less smooth. To me, 250 is the perfect rate because my inputs are the most accurate, but once I'm 200 or lower, my reload shots tend to be quite slower and my dbfs slow down a considerable amount.

Overall, to some players, like myself, 250 is very beneficial whereas some people have the shit luck to play possibly from 60-200 fps not realizing they'd probably do even better at better framerates.

your computer will operate gunz fine. You MAY experience a frame drop when you have a lot of characters on screen, but for the most part it shouldn't have any problems.

Bullshit. If framerate drops are not taken into account, you cannot see a difference in framerate higher than your monitors refreshrate (which for most people is 60).
