the goal machine 7,978 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Aye, that would be fine I think. Pretty sure FM only needs 3GB of hard drive space and 1GB of RAM. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Aye it's the RAM i think you're supposed to take into account as well as the speed, 4gb means it should be able to handle doing a few things at once.I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Reynolds 3,359 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 In terms of performance mate, it's ram you need to be looking for, the more the better.On the specs you've given, you'd have 4 million bytes of memory available for access when your game is running, so depending on the other programmes you have open at the time, you may notice a dip in performance, you may not.Have a look at this:http://www.pcgamer.com/how-much-ram-do-you-really-need-for-gaming/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yata 161 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Fm is a real spec hog on the cpu and ram, your going to want an i3/i5 and 4 gig of ram minimum. Pc-Specialist are pretty decent for laptops as you can select 'no windows' to save like 50 quid and select only the specs you want Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Champ Manager was the pinnacle of football management games and nothing can touch 00/01 IMO. Best manager sim of all time.
