  hi

  the make / model are not tied to the game, it's an issue with an individual machines, so no way to identify it.

  DELL Inspiron 3000 series , AMD A6 Quad core radeon processors . The quality of your processors will have a lot to do with how the game will perform . So when looking at computers make sure that the computer will meet the games requirements . You can google the processors to see how they will perform . Hope this helps . :-)

  I have 3 Toshiba Satellite laptops w/ very fast processors and plenty of memory...

  I have 1 HP laptop and 1 Dell, all with Win7 or Win8, fast processors and more than enough memory...

  I have a very fast HP desktop w/ Win7 along with a few others not hooked up...

  I have tried all of them with good video cards and a gaming mouse, and the PC I play on and that plays the game the best is a old Dell Desktop with WinXP on it and a Pentium 4, 3.1gig processor, 3 gigs of Ram....

  You might want to go backwards instead of forward....

  The speed at which you CPU runs is extremely important. I have an MCI with 4  gigs of dedicated memory and 12 more open memory. My CPU usually runs between 0 and 4. Meter is great. I personally believe that computer does make a difference. Also making sure that nothing is running at start up is important. Run as clean a computer as possible. JMHO.

  The game is not taxing for most modern day computers.  I have a Yoga Pro 3 with the new Intel 'M" processors that only run at 1.3 GHz, and only 4GB of RAM and have no problems.  I have a super fast internet connection and super fast router though, and that helps.  If my little ultrabook will run WGT, any modern day full featured notebook certainly will.

  Heh. My 1st one just plain wore out I used it so much. Got away with having the HD crash and got an exact duplicate, used,  to carry on as usual. It works so good I went and found a 3rd one dirt cheap and it sits in the box waiting its turn.  :-)
