whats a good laptop to run drive?

If you're a Mac user why don't you go for Bootcamp? As space is important for you it seems like a win-win (more expensive, but it's a great setup). I run BeamNG on my MacBook Pro and it runs really well.

 

Most of what I know about trucks is from Euro Truck Simulator and having watched Ice Road Truckers years ago.

 

used to play a little game on my Atari 800 called "trucker" myself. those guys on IRT have got some balls, wouldnt mind giving it a try myself. bet it pays good.

 

This just reminds me of watching some idiot that high centered his truck(the actual tractor part) on a hill and ruptured his fuel tanks.

 

I archive higher fps, but on most maps it's still laggy, because it's jumping between 30-50 fps (or something in this area).

Hahaha I was thinking the same thing!?

 

probably should get a PC but I play on a laptop this one: http://www.toshiba.com/us/computers/laptops/satellite/S850/S855-S5378

and it runs fine...

 

i use a hp envy m6 - sadly the discon version, but you can get them preowned. it has intel i5 2.6 with turbo boost to 3.1 , 2 gb amd card, and 8gb of ram. i am able to run the game on full settings with two cars, i can use 3 with a little lag on some maps.

 

Lenovo y400 750 gt
core I7
8 gigs of ram
rocks the game at med high settings.
I constantly move, so a laptop suites me.

 

its anything with a decent enough graphics card in it...thats how I see it to be honest...but I have little experience with laptops I am more of a PC/Console gamer myself...

 

I have a stock HP Stream 13 can I run Drive?

 

No.

 

not one of the devices with "stream" in the name can get even 10fps on minimum settings, they are god awful machines.

 

I would recommend a minimum of any windows laptop with an Intel HD 4000 as a graphics card. That was my previous laptop, and with low settings on gridmap I managed a stable 30fps, and high 20s on any other map with lowest settings, all at 720p.

 

If you want any kind of good value, building yourself a desktop and deal hunting on the GPU and CPU is how you'd want to go about that. That being said, we have an MSI laptop with an i7 and a GTX 960M that can run BeamNG in the 35-55 FPS range on mostly medium settings in 1080p. I wouldn't go below either of those in performance if you pick a laptop for BeamNG specifically, as it's a very resource intensive game. Something like this (not the one we own, just an example), which is going to be in the $1000 range. If you're really dead-set on a laptop, you might want to wait until the end of the year to see if they make laptops with GTX 1060M's in that same or a lower price range.
