Title: Diablo III benchmarked
Post by: Redaktion on May 19, 2012, 08:44:05
Welcome to Hell! After years of waiting it is finally available: Legendary developer Blizzard Entertainment has at last launched Diablo III, the long-awaited successor to one of the most popular action role-playing games of all time. We dug into the dark fantasy world and ran Diablo III on several notebook graphics cards. Can your notebook system make it through Hell alive?

Nice game test! In the last graphs why are you writing less to 630M and more to HD4000 that you are actually measured?

Would the Samsung Series 7 Slate be able to run Diablo 3 on low settings? It has Intel i5 2467M, Intel HD Graphics 3000, 4GB DDR3 Ram.

@GearedGeek

The Samsung-Notebook should be able to run Diablo III in low details. At least when there isn´t to much action going on (we tested all the graphic cards in a relatively undemanding scene).

@ Bojan

The GT 540M more or less equals the GT 630M, so you can take those results. Depending on the resolution, you probably can play Diablo III with medium oder high settings.

HD 5850 Desktop makes 91fps @Ultra, far better than GTX 675M, GTX 580M, HD 6990M.So why it's ranked below those cards? In this way the HD 7970M isn't even close to GTX 560 Ti lol

1080 high with no AA would be more interesting

I play on my Intel i5 with HD integrated graphics. (4GB ram)  I run on the lowest res widescreen, with all settings on low/off, and extra FX off.  It isn't the best framerate (prob 40s), but it is definitely playable.  Great job to Blizzard devs who made this work on my laptop!  The art is so great, that once you are immersed in the game, the low quality settings don't even phase you.

the benchmark scene is useless and show no real fps drop under heavy situations. which is sad because of amazing settings and laptops variety

This test is worthless.

Diablo 3 is capped at 60 FPS on my i7-860 3.5Ghz AMD 5870 solo, but I have even seen it drop to 25fps in massive fights with four players.

With lesser processors I've seen it hit the single digits.

Sadly its hard to recreate intensive fights easily to benchmark them. It would be a lot of effort to do this. However, you should keep some headroom. For all users whose GPUs are not listed, just take a look in our gaming list
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Computer-Games-on-Laptop-Graphic-Cards.13849.0.html
where all cards are listed according to the average performance.

Diablo 3 runs quite nicely with Lenovo W520 (2860QM & Quadro 2000M) at 1920x1080 max details. Experience is not exactly butter smooth and lowering details doesn't really help so playing at max. With 4 players in group fps is good enough to enjoy this title fully.

Runs little bit better on my desktop Q9500 & GTX460M where fps is almost constant 60.

My HP has i5-2450M 2.50 GHz, 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz, Radeon HD 7690M XT, and a 1920 x 1080 display. What settings do you think I can expect to play D3 on?

9.5 for Diablo 3 score absolutely ridiculous. Totally makes sense though, once you realize he gave out the score without even finishing the game. "hint: he never even played in inferno mode"

Diablo 3 is indeed a very well optimized game and runs without any problem on low end hardware. I manage to squeeze up to 55 FPS on low settings at 1280x720 with my Intel HD 3000 Graphics equipped laptop (Core i3 2310m CPU and 8 GB RAM), which is more than enough. I have played a lot with the video settings, but it was well worth it, as now the game runs perfectly smooth without any lag or overheating issues. I have written an article that explains the different Diablo 3 video settings and recommends the optimal ones for Intel HD Graphics and other low end video cards. If you are interested, you can check it out on my blog:
