Your GT 710M is very low spec. I'll post some performance estimates in a min

It's faster than a Intel HD 4000 and comparable to a GT 630, so it should play ok at 720P-ish resolutions (e.g. 1366x768) at around 30-40 FPS on low/medium

Thanks

Ok thanks, so you think it's possible ? Because if it's possible i prefer don't loose 50euro...

That depends on what screen you'll be playing on?

knoxville8596 · Jan 18, 2015

What do you mean by "screen" ? The resolution ?

StuartGT · Jan 18, 2015

Yes, do you know the resolution or monitor/TV's model

knoxville8596 · Jan 18, 2015

It's a laptop... It's 1366x768

StuartGT · Jan 18, 2015

Cool, it'll run well & give you 30-40 frames-per-second at your screen's normal resolution.

knoxville8596 · Jan 18, 2015

Ok, and 30-40 fps it's no too low ? I mean : is it comfortable ?

StuartGT · Jan 18, 2015

Sure, that's the FPS you'll get in stations and asteroid fields. Most console games target 30FPS for example. In open space it'll ramp up to around 50FPS

ED will run awesome

40-50 FPS on high @ 1080P in stations, easily above 60 FPS in open space
