Same old song... will this run... Skyrim

Post by the Savage Hippie »

I am looking to buy a new computer as the one I have is close to its death. I've been looking at this machine, I won't post links as the links are in Danish, but it's an Acer Aspire E1-522-65204G50. With these specs:
AMD A serie A6-5200 / 2 GHz (quad core)
4gb ram
and Intel HD Graphics 4400
Could it run Skyrim?

The RAM looks a little skimpy in my opinion but I'm far from an expert. I think it should run fine though, I've run Skyrim on less.

AMD A6-3400M APU with Radeon HD Graphics 1.4 Ghz
6 GB RAM

A laptop and it doesn't even have a proper graphics card, just seems to be something built into the processor.

Yeah, I didn't thought it was gonna flow away in ULTRA HIGH settings, but just run the game at a playable level, I also considered if it was enough ram, I guess could maybe take the ram from this one and put in that, before I smash this with a hammer.
