Hi guys

I wanna ask a question about minimum system requirements.

--In "SOMA Graphics Card Troubleshooting Guide" min card is listed as GT 240

Code:

--In steam store page min card is listed as GTX 260

Code:

Which is correct? I'm guessing it's just a typo?

I'm asking this because I'm trying to figure out if my laptop can run it or not.

İ3-2330M 2.2 GHZ / GT 525M / 4GB ram

I have TDD and MftP running smoothly. Can I run SOMA in low settings? I don't mind low fps too.
Yes you can. I have run it just fine with a i3-2310M, 540M and 4GB RAM.

How many FPS do you get with 540M, if you don't mind my asking? Stable 30?
I have a 560M and got around 30-40fps on low-medium settings, so it'd probably be around there.
I don't remember details regarding how many fps or exact settings used as I haven't played SOMA in months and both playthroughs were done with a desktop 660Ti. I only did some quick testing on my laptop and I remember that the experience was just fine. Your initial question was whether you can run it or not. For a fact, you can run it and based on personal experience (hopefully my memory serves me right) you should have a good experience.
