Will My Computer Run This?

Hey, sorry for how technologically illiterate this question is, but I'm not that great with computer specs. I was wondering if my computer would run this game and, if so, how well it would run. If not, what aspects of it would need to be upgraded (I would think RAM if anything). If I have left anything out that is needed please let me know!

Thank you very much for the help!

Honestly, you should get decent FPS on mostly high and some ultra as long as you are happy with about 30-60fps and may get higher depending on driver updates and your Post processing and AA settings.
As far as updating goes, your system should be decent for a fair amount of time as long as you aren't always trying to run the latest games at 100+fps. But if you are thinking of "upgrading" parts of computers you need to move away from laptops and over to full towers or mid-towers desktops. Laptops are use until they are obsolete and discard for the most part, as pretty much everything is built on the main board and not parts added to it like desktops.

Quite few laptops are powerful enough, and you chose to omit the most important hardware in any PC used for gaming. The Video Graphics Adapter must meet the minimum.

Recommended PC Specs

    OS: WIndows 7, 8, or 8.1 64-bit
    CPU: AMD six-core CPU @ 3.2 GHz / Intel quad-core CPU @3.0 GHz
    System RAM: 8 GB
    Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 7870 or R9 270 / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660
    Graphics Card Memory: 3 GB
    Hard Drive Space 26 GB
    DirectX 11

I googled the laptop model and found this page: http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GT70-2QD-Dominator.html#hero-specification

The GPU is a GTX 970m, which is very good. However, it's possible that this particular model comes in different variations, so it's safest if you take a look at your dxdiag to see what GPU youy have, just to be sure.

That is not a GPU, only a poor IGP, sorry. You need far more video than that thing.

Yeah, I'm an idiot. Went and looked at the specs from the order history when I bought it, I actually have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M.

A little wary of downloading programs from groups I am not familiar with. Is this program fairly reputable?

System Requirement Lab is a bunch of foolish amateurs, wrong so often that no one with any real experience would waste time giving out a link to the place!

Then how well do you think my computer would run Inquisition with the above specs (including the GTX NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M)? I guess what I am trying to ask is what graphics setting would you think this rig would handle, and how smoothly?
