One person on a forum posted: At least I found a new way to blow up my Laptop.
Now aren't we a bit dramatic.
It will simply melt. ;D

Hmm, seems doable, or what? have an gtx 860m 4gb on my laptop ps: not an expert on video cards, can´t tell them all apart x)
nobody know that but when journalist will try it next weeks we could see their answers and for max settings we will see after the release . i never see a game say the max setting of it before release it's always fan and pc hardware man you compare the fps and different card and see the performance
There are two different versions of the GTX860M, one with a GM107 and one with a GK104 GPU. THe performance in both cases is comparable to a GTX 750 Ti (Nvidia's low end of the Maxwell lineup), which is a bit slower than a GTX660 but still close enough.
I already had several people in this thread tell me that my CPU (i5 4690k) is okay for the game, but I just have another question.
When I used CanYouRunIt.com, I passed everything except for my CPU, and it said my CPU was inadequate for both Minimum and Recommended and that I needed an upgrade.
Note that the minimum CPU is an i5 2500k @ 3.3 GHz so I don't know why it does that. I can understand failing the recommended (as the i7 3770 has hyperthreading), but it makes no sense that my i5 4690k is being registered as below the i5 2500k.
Should this just be an indicator the website isn't always accurate and does anyone have experience with it?
Thanks in advance to anyone who has experience with the website.

Canyourunit has a lot of inaccuracy problems at times. I wouldn't rely on it to determine if you can run a game. Just wait for the game to release and then purchase parts.
Sites like gamedebate, and canyournit use generic clock speeds, and treat the min/rec like a hard limit; instead of the general ballpark figure that it actually is. Automated checking programs are highly inaccurate, so the only time you should ever listen to somebody telling you if a game can, or can't run on your machine is from a human who has personally tested it.

CYRI isn't even that relevant anymore and pretty inaccurate
Your CPU is fine, I wouldn't worry at all.
CIRI However...
I said however
According to the sites TOS it has the exact same problem (as game debate, canyourunit, etc), and also uploads malware onto your computer to boot.
It is saying my i5 4690 doesn't meet the requirements. LMAO
Canyourunit would be a bad joke if it did not mislead so many unsuspecting users into buying hardware they don't need and being disappointed with games that won't run because their knowledge of actual requirements isn't worth rat droppings.
Ask people who know what stated requirements actually mean and how current and previous generations of hardware meet or do not meet them.
And avoid anything to do with sites that offer to install programs that will analyze your system. There is no faster route to being caught by ransomware.

Personally "decently" removes the point, otherwise I'd buy a PS4- I'd like The Witcher 3 to perform and look the best I can make it.
Something else that reminds me of issues that come up with sites like gamedebate, etc. Is how they determine the strength of components versus other components. For example I ran my core 2 quad Q9950 2.8 GHZ up against min/req of the witcher processors, and it claimed these processors were 25%, and 50% stronger than my processor. Now I don't know much about clock speeds, and product break downs myself, but that seems inaccurate to say the least. I mean what is this DBZ or something? Does my hardware have a power level over 9000? In almost any other break down of a product there are a multitude of variables, and hard numbers to go off of when determining performance. For example the actual on screen pixel processing power that Guy N'wah was talking about the other day.
