Re: Can my PC run these games? (Sorry for the long post)

I have trouble finding good information about that APU's performance because most benchmarks seem to only want to measure its CPU power. From what I can see it scores significantly lower in the G3D benchmark compared to the minimum Radeon GPU (HD 7750).

@ThandalNLyman How did you conclude that the integrated R7 is above the minimum spec? From the benchmarks I found, it seems like this APU is slower than the HD7750

A score of 734 for the A12-9700P compared to 1698 for the HD 7750.

I'm not very familiar with AMD's APUs (I personally wouldn't play games on integrated graphics), so I could be entirely wrong.

    Good catch!  Based my (admittedly quick) response on this:

    "AMD announced its Radeon R7 260 in December of last year, and we were excited about a $110 Radeon HD 7770 replacement."

    Could we just unban Gorath for a moment? He usually had the right answers to these questions. 😉
