Hey guys,

I am working professional with this small Lenovo Mini PC, which I use to WFH sometimes. I used to play AOE II: The Conquerors when I was kid and loved that game. Now, I have heard of this new release AOE IV and would like to give it a try.

I have this PC but I am not sure if I should buy new PC to try this new game.

These are my PC specs:

Intel i7-6700T @2.80Ghz (8 CPUs)
16 GB ram 2133 mhz
Intel HD Graphics 530 Approx Total Memory 8 GB

I have seen minimum specs, but I'd like to see what other gamers think and whether I'd be able to enjoy the game.

Also, any cheap site where I can buy this for cheap?

Cheers.

Gaming Lenovo Microsoft

According to this reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/aoe4/comments/qn95gf/what_do_i_need…

Only on lowest settings :( The gpu and ram would be fine but let down by integrated graphics.

  You mean CPU and RAM.
  
  The bottleneck for your system op will be the GPU/integrated graphics. Maybe consider upgrading to a PC with dedicated graphics, Ah a decent dedicated GPU

  Nope those form factor PC's don't support dedicated graphics.
