I'm thinking about buying this laptop but i want to make sure it is capable of playing eve online.
ASUS K53SC-SX307V Core i5 Laptop, NVidia GeForce GT 520MX (1GB) dedicated graphics card.
I think it is good enough for eve but i'm no computer expert so any advice would be great thanks :) |

It will do EVE just fine.
General rule of thumb, for gaming buy lappy with the biggest screen you can afford. Then look at the graphics hardware.

15.6 in screen.. Same as what im using at the moment.
I would rather 3 monitors and a tower pc but its just to much to have around when you have a new born baby to look after :)
Thanks allot for confirming my choice of laptops :)
Its going to be great to finally see the new character creation working properly and shiny ships.
I'm gonna get it |

GT 520MX has support of DX11 and Shader Model 5, you are good for many years of EVE.

just a side note
the nvidia 520m isn't that strong, it will play eve just fine ( maybe not in CQ) but it won't play something like BF3 very well. |

In EVE, near-max graphic detail (everything highest, except antialiasing, which would be off), at fullHD resolution, expect about 35-40 FPS "flying in space" with a 520M.
For CQ under similar graphic detail, 10-15 FPS.
Lower resolutions and lower graphic detail obviously will increase your FPS.

I'm now thinking of getting a laptop made with NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M instead. Do you think it would handle CQ ok? I think it may run at 25fps. |

Just thowing it out there, If you can find a used model ASUS G74 SX, that is what I use and it runs EVE and CQ at high settings no problem. It's a year old model so maybe its cheaper now? GeForce GTX 560M.

Similar settings as above 520M example (fullHD, max all except no antialias).
520M -> 35-40 FPS space, 10-15 FPS CQ
A6-3400 integrated video (6520G) -> 40-45 FPS space, 12-17 FPS CQ
555M -> 95-105 FPS space, 30-35 FPS in CQ
560M -> 120-130 FPS space, 40-45 FPS in CQ
VERY rough ballpark figures, actual results might vary depending on many other factors.

I did a test on this site http://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=1747&game=Eve+Online%3A+Incarna&p_make=Intel&p_deriv=Core+i5-2410M+2.3GHz&gc_make=Nvidia&gc_deriv=GeForce+GT+540M&ram=4&laptop=1&checkSubmit=#systemRequirements
And it's saying CQ will play so I'm not sure now. I'm gonna test my current laptop when I get home from work :) thanks for all your help. |
