Is my laptop specs good enough for previous versions of unreal

Screenshot 2024-11-28 164134
The computer i was previously using for unreal broke down and we haven’t been able to fix it so i was wondering if my old laptop can run an old version of unreal.I tried the most recent version 1 or 2 months ago and the fps completely sucked so i was wondering if there was an old version that my laptop could run.

Sorry if i didnt give enough enough information as i don’t really know what im doing so i’ll try to respond as quickly as i can.

Thanks in advance.

I didn’t take the telepathy course yet, so I can’t know what your laptop specs are.

You basically have to do two things

  1. Turn off features ( like Lumen, VSM, TSR )

  2. Go for earlier engine versions. They are all available from the Launcher. If very pushed, try UE4

Hey there @nightling33! As Clockwork mentioned, since we don’t have your specifications here, you can compare your laptop’s specifications to the minimum requirements for Unreal Engine 4.27 as a starting point. This will also be an example of the most important portions of your specs for the engine.

If you require assistance obtaining your specs, you can use this article to help find them (though this article is for submitting the file, you don’t have to submit the file here, you can just read it or post the components mentioned by the minimum requirements page)

We still don’t see what sort of GPU you have. If you open the task manager, and go to the GPU view

it just says “Intel(R) UHD Graphics”.


I think im using integrated graphics card but im an idiot so i dont really know.
Sorry for the late reply.

Right. You’ll need to start with 4.27, and work your way back from there. UE5 will not run on that GPU, sorry :grimacing:

Thanks for the help man
Very much appreciated
