How does my laptop weigh up in terms of CPU and GPU power/speed?


My laptop is a Lenovo Z50 which I got to use for multiple things such as Video streaming, browsing, college work, video editing and recently gaming.

I've managed to run a few games like Warthunder and World of Tanks on medium/low settings quite well but some bigger games like Heroes and Generals are hard to play even on low settings. Video editing on Camtasia Studio 8 is pretty smooth and video streaming in 1080p is decent, it struggles a little bit with 1080p60fps videos though.

I want to know what games I can run and whether or not my specs are good enough for general gaming. I know AMD tends to be less good in comparison to Intel so can you recommend anything better that I could get? Here are my specs:

Processor: AMD A10-7300 Radeon R6, 10 Compute Cores 4C+6G 1.90 GHz
Installed Memory (RAM): 8.00 GB (6.93 GB usable)
1 TB Hardrive
System Type: 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor, Windows 8.1 OS

Thanks
