Gears 5 on Win7x64 with k4000m?

Hmmm, HDD space shouldn't be much of an issue with the M6700. Before upgrading to my current 7710 mine was decked out with a 480GB msata for the OS and a pair of Seagate 2TB HDDs

The GTX 980M was a great upgrade for the M6700, most games played in 1080p with maxed out settings.

 

Yeah true I have 1 tb hdd, 500gb hdd, 240gb ssd and a 120gb msata in there I also just install games on a couple of free smaller ssd's I have and plug and play with a usb3 to sata cable, works great and I can plug and play on any computer that has an appropriate gpu/cpu. I have had RDR2 on my mind lately and that's obv a huge space there, waiting for steam release. GOW is like 70gb so it's doable no doubt. Wish they would just do that, put RDR2 on a specifically sized ssd which would include the saves and some free space for updates, dlcs, mods/trainers, put those in stores and boom no huge downloads etc 240GB SSD's are not more than like 30 bucks used.

I don't like to push my system too hard and I'm moderate when it comes to bells and whistles gaming, usually 1080p low/med but usually on more modern heavy graphihcs games I do 900p, 768p medium adjusted to as close to 60fps as possible. So for me if it's utilizing over 75% of the gpu it's too high lol Ofc older games are maxed out. It's been a great upgrade so far.

OH BTW UPDATE: maybe an optimus thing? I used the "use high performance nvidia card" right click option too. 436.4x geforce drivers. UPDATE2: Using latest nvidia geforce drivers modded inf 441.12 same warnings, game crashes right after I click ok on both windows. No GOW5 for me I guess lol

 

They do have some sort of a dx12 on win7 wrapper in a win7 folder I see but obv it does not work. Maybe one of the missed details is that on the steam page it says 1050 min for win7 so maybe it's a hard minimum, regardless of what card you have, it must be at least a 1050 who knows. BL3 is actually pretty good esp with the stealth setting in a trainer I'm using, can explore and do side missions without getting constantly attacked, I like the basic environmental puzzles as well. Maybe give FC5 a go until rdr2 next month.
