Well, for the most part, you seem to be worried about money, for that, Steam is necessary.
I would possibly get a demo first, to see how it runs.

I've never played a Witcher game, so I can't help you with the upgrade, other than that you should contact people who know what they are talking about.

Quick googling indicates it probably won't run on your laptop due to the Intel chip you've got for your graphics.

Oh, and it was on sale on Steam a few days ago, but you missed it. It might go on sale again on the final day possibly.

Failing that GoG.com are selling it, and they're the developers so buying from them wold be an excellent way to support them and the awesome game they made.

This is kinda moot though, cos like I said, it'd probably explode your laptop before it ran.

When is the last day of the sale and where/what chip should I look into buying?

Use that site to see if your machine can run any game. I would tell you it is best if your machine meets the recommended or best requirements if a game lists it. If you are a graphics snob even a little bit - if you only meet the minimum you probably won't be happy with it.

Looked up your laptop. I wouldn't waste your money on the game to be honest with you. I know it isn't what you want to hear. My job for the last 8 years is testing among other things video games on different systems. Looking at those specs - and what you want to do.... Sorry buddy.

If you're not sure your laptop can handle it, just wait for 360 version if you own that console.

I really wanted this but the amount of money I need to get a good enough computer is...

Thanks for your help

Well, if you've got an Xbox 360, you're not entirely SOL. A port of the game gas been announced for said console.

Indeed, 360 version is on the way, though it won't be as pretty I'd imagine it'll still be pretty good.

As for how much for a new graphics chip? In a laptop upgrading is near impossible, so you'd need to buy a new laptop, or build a desktop.

You could probably build a desktop that would run it for £500-£600, though buying from a shop would be considerably more expensive than building yer own.

I have heard about this I would rather have PC but I do own a 360 and I could get it for that... Thank you for reminding me I will look into it to see what the core diffrences are
