Yep... it will, probably at max definition, but as it is ATI I sense problems. Just try it out and tell me if it works.

I think you are going to struggle. Your CPU and GPU weren't made with gaming in mind and this is a RAM hungry game.

You might be able to play it on the low graphics settings on small maps though.

Personally I have no trouble with Civ 5 and ATI.

I would suggest you try the free demo (available on Steam) before you buy to see how it goes.

I don't think so, I have 2gb RAM, even ddr2 and I don't run on RAM problems. He has 3 gb and drr3, which is far better, IMO.

What could cause problems are laptop drivers, since sometimes they are incompatible with some games.
