I have an old laptop in a drawer I keep as a backup. Asus 2012 laptop with an Nvidia 660M GPU. It can run Crysis 2 in high settings. Not exactly surprising a 2007 PC game running on a portable.

Crysis 2 ran on a different variant of engine your laptop wouldn't run Crysis 1 at the same setting because the version of the engine it used doesn't utilize the hardware properly because of the architecture it was designed thinking hardware in future would work in one way but hardware ended up going in a different direction.

The remaster is likely the first game finally running on a modern architecture.
