I wanted to test Borderlands 3 on my old Gaming laptop ASUS G74SX with the GTX 560M , while it may sound awesome it actually is in 2019 a super low en PC, I was decent when it came out in 2011 but now it is pretty bad, gaming laptop have come a long way since 2011, the GTX 560M has only about 40% of the performance of the desktop GTX 560.

The GTX 560m can be compared with GT 650M or the GT 640, and I think both are a little bit better than the GTX 560M


The Game is actually very playable at 720p with 75% resolution scale with shadows at medium (can try high, it does improve a lot the visual but can reduce quite a bit the fps, but still playable), ambient occlusion on low , and some anti aliasing and anisotropic filtering to help smooth out the low resolution edges

I'm using throttlestop, to disable turbo boost, 2nd gen laptop CPU are super dumb so they like to throttle like crazy

I'm recording with a capture card so the PC has no performance impact while recording

PD: Normally I play on English but I forgot to change the language for the game on this PC srry
