Hello everyone. I was hoping you all may know of an excellent laptop that can handle or
run The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim PC game on Ultra settings smoothly?
From a few hours of searching, I have come across a few laptop brands and models
backed up by actual videos showing that it can handle the game with High or Ultra settings.
I am going to put all that I found in a list below and would like to know which one you
think would be the best one out of the bunch. I know prices will vary and some of these
are no longer in stock, but I may still be able to find them elsewhere, so I will still include those too.
If you all have any suggestions on a laptop outside of this list, do let me know.
I was hoping the price range could be below $1,000. I will try to include links to
each one so that you can compare the specs faster instead of having to search each one up.
They say on most of these videos that the recording program they use to record their game play causes the skips and makes the FPS drop by 10 or so.
HP Pavilion DV6-6135DX ------> Video showing this on High Settings, not Ultra
Toshiba Satellite S55-A5294 ----> An older version that can run Battlefield 3 on Ultra
Toshiba Qosmio X505 ------> Video Showing Ultra Settings
Acer Aspire V5-572P-6858 -----> An older model running on High Settings
Acer aspire 5560-sb613 ---> High and Ultra side by side comparison
ASUS K55 Series K55N-DB81 -----> Not Skyrim, but plays Black Ops 2 almost on Max settings
Asus G750JW -----> Skyrim on Ultra Settings
ASUS N550JV-DB71 ----> World of Tanks Ultra Settings

Someone mentioned on another forum if you had these specs with the laptop, then you could easily run Skyrim this way.
If I were you I would look for a gaming laptop with the following specs (or better):
Proc: Core i7-2720QM
Mem: 8Gb
Storage: SSD
GPU: 6970m or better
Display: 1080p

I suppose Ultra settings is not a necessity but would be REALLY nice.
High settings would be the acceptable minimum if possible for under $1,000.
I know that you could build a nice desktop that can easily do this for that
price but the person I am researching this for would prefer "mobility".
I am looking forward to your all's responses. I may even post links up of the
videos showing these Laptops in action with these settings.
I will check back often when I can. Have a great weekend! :cool:
