Thanks for answer.
I just fear for the videocard support.
Maybe, yes. I try to buy this game and if the game will not work I use "Origin Game Guarantee".

this site is pretty decent for letting you know what you can and can't run. Sometimes it's off though. It can't predict any changes based on spyware, viruses, bloatwear, background programs and other stuff that will reduce you computer's performance. Sometimes it can be off due to a game's optimization. Told me I could run bf3 on medium. I run it on ultra at 60fps

No not decent IMO. If you don't know what your system has and what the game requires... odds are rolling dice will be just as effective as that website. That's 100% opinion.
http://www.game-debate.com/ has one. Requires you to sign up but if that says you can run a game... you're likely going to be well qualified because from what I've seen they don't use the minimum specs of games which is the where SRLab gets confused and it ruins people's days.
Best to ask here or someone who knows about the game than using any of those.

Should be playable. Don't expect Ultra (infact expect low).. but going easy on the settings and resolution should have no problem getting a playable experience.

It's been accurate, so it's a good website. When I had a crappy laptop, it was right about games I couldn't run. If your computer doesn't meet the minimum requirements, it'll let you know. Again, these sources do not consider what software you have running or if you're even overclocking.
Best option is to use origin's great game guarantee. Downfall is paying full price when you can get it discounted on gamestop's website for $20. I don't think they refund those.
Beats asking people who have never used your computer's build since we all have our own and rarely game with people using the same exact build

They definitly incorrectly guess at comparing low end modern mobile graphics versus decade old desktop minimum specs. (party due to decade old minimum specs... lol)
That is probably the guy looking it up isn't it? If you have a Titan chances are you don't use that website.
It boggles my mind because they have always been inaccurate at comparing minimum to "yours", let alone what the game actually needs at minimum to have a decent experience.
There are what I look at to compare.

I don't know about their current state, but they used to be highly inaccurate.
They were especially bad in the GPU department, where they compared your GPU's features to that of the minimum, but ignored the card's clock speeds. They also used to consider higher model numbers to be better, even if it doesn't work that way. For this reason, it would consider a Geforce 9400 sufficient if the requirement is a Geforce 8800.
I don't know if they fixed that by now. It was easier to spot mistakes back when I was using entry-level hardware. (My geforce 8500 was considered better than the 7900 because 8500 > 7900.)
It's safer to compare your GPU to the required GPU on the hierarchy chart.
