New Sony Vaio laptop question.

I just got a Vaio laptop SVS1511CFXB. That's the product name. It has an i7-3612QM and a dedicated GT640M processor and 6 gb ram. The first that I bought had artifacts of some kind in the LCD, verified with HDMI out-so its bit drivers or something. I am taking it back to exchange. My question is, with those specs will it run this game smoothly on most settings? I usually don't care about water, shadows, or ambient occlusion. I am just asking because if it will not, I will just get my money and look elsewhere. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

With those specs, it should play just fine.

Honestly, I'm a big non-fan of Sony. They tend to design "boutique" machines that are very cool and stylish but fragile. That and you're paying markup for the Sony name.

I was trying to avoid the name and premium too. But, the laptop that was comparable was a toshiba with an and graphics card and I had issues with the driver. I already returned that one and wanted to make sure on this one. I am kinda pressed for time because I have a trip coming but still wanted to get a laptop. I don't want it for gaming but I didn't want to have to get a gaming one later. Thanks for the input. I will see how it turns out.

If you're set on Sony, okay.

Take a look-see at this comparable Asus.
