Would this laptop run skyrim?

[ShadowHunter]

I had to delete skyrim off of our house computer, so I am saving for a laptop that could run Skyrim with decent graphics and a decent amount of mods. I was looking on Best Buy earlier and found this laptop, I believe it will run it fine but I don't want to buy something that won't work.

I will also use it for watching movies, school work, and other things. But Skyrim is one of the main reasons I am considering buying it. It is $859.99

Any input is much appreciated!

yes , it can run the game on medium or high graphics .

Thanks! Another thing, I bought and installed Dragonborn, Hearthfire and Dawnguard DLCs for it while I was using the other computer. Will I need to repurchase them?

As long as you have legal copies registered in Steam, you will not have to re-purchase. Just log into your Steam account and you will be able to re-download your content.

Ok cool, thanks. Because I didn't buy them from steam, I bought them from GameStop

Yes. Judging by the specs, you could probably run Skyrim

Would it run Crysis, though?
That's another story...

I am also looking at this one. The other one I posted is getting some bad reviews

It's a little cheaper but I am really leaning towards this one
