Call of Duty: Black Ops Laptop Benchmarks
In the following article we will present gaming benchmark of the newest Call of Duty: Black Ops 3D shooter on laptops.
Benchmark
We use the full version of Call of Duty: Black Ops for Windows for our benchmarks and decided to benchmark the first mission in Cuba using Fraps to record the average framerate. We start in the bar as soon as the cigarette is lighted and stop after the car you drive crashes into the police car. As it is a gameplay level, the numbers may differ from run to run slightly.
Settings
| Notebookcheck Settings Class | Resolution | AA, AF | Settings |
| Low | 800x600 | Low (all off) | |
| Medium | 1024x768 | 0xAA, 0xAF | Texture Quality Medium, Shadows Yes, Bullet Impacts Yes, Number of Corpses Medium |
| High | 1360x768 | 2xAA, 4xAF | Texture Quality High, Shadows Yes, Bullet Impacts Yes, Number of Corpses large |
| Ultra | 1920x1080 | 4xAA, 8xAF | Texture Quality Extra, Shadows Yes, Bullet Impacts Yes, Number of Corpses large |

| 5 | stutters - The game probably won't run fluently in this settings with this graphics card as at least one average framerate lies below the limit of 25fps |
| may stutter - Interpolated information. A slower graphics card was not able to run the game fluently and there are no benchmarks for this card. Therefore, this one may probably also not run. | |
| 30 | fluent - The game should run fluently as all known benchmarks are above the limit of 25fps |
| 40 | fluent - The game should run fluently as all known benchmarks are above the limit of 35fps |
| may run fluently - A slower graphics card achieved playable framerates and there are no benchmarks for this card. Therefore, this faster card may be able to run the game fluently. | |
| 123 | unsure - Either the minimal achieved framerate was below the border, but still the average was above, or a slower card achieved playable framerates but this one not. |
| unsure - A slower card was flagged as unsure and there are no benchmarks for this card. | |
| The value in the fields displays the average framerate of all values in the database. Move you mouse over the value to see the single results. | |
What laptop do I need for playing Black Ops
Our benchmark results indicate that you should at least go for a GeForce 420M class graphics card if you want to play Call of Duty Black Ops in low-medium details. To play fluently in high details, a performance graphics card for laptops like the GeForce 445M is needed. Early versions of the game still stuttered a bit altough the average framerate was good. At least a Core i3-330M processor and 2GB RAM should be used in the system.
