Will my PC handle this at all?

Gigga96 · 07-07-2011, 04:09 PM

Hey guys!

As far as I've understood, this game requires a VERY good PC to run it. Now, I'm not actually on PC, I'm on a Mac, but don't worry I have Windows on it for gaming. My specs are as following:

Intel i3 Duo 3.2 GHz
ATI Radeon HD 5670
4 Gb RAM

Now, what I'm worried about is the graphics card. In the system requierments it doesn't say anything about any ATI card what-so-ever. Surely it must be compatible with ATI card, right?
I do understand that if my Mac can handle it, it won't be on the highest setting. I'm OK with playing on low / medium settings as long as it's in 1080p and 30+ FPS.

Thanks!

Yes.

It will, but barely on low, and you need to have fully updated graphics card.

If it's not supposed to work with these, well, I don't know why it did for me, even on all low it has really good details.

With "barely on low", do you mean that I won't even get a reasonable FPS?

I mean that even on low quality, it's still a bit slow (fine to me though)

Really, it's not 'slow', just that somethings aren't synched up completely, like someone will be talking and they'll stop like .25 seconds after the audio ends.

Up to you, slow game or no game.

Ah, well that doesn't sound all too bad. It seems like a very interesting game. I try not to watch any videos of it. The less I know, the better.

I can see it almost certainly running rather well depending on resolution.

I ran 2033 using a 2.6ghz and a 4850 with 2 gb of ram and it ran fine, your system beats that so I don't see a problem.

The Radeon HD 4850 smacks the crap out of the Radeon HD 5670.

It' very scalable. You can play it on DX9 with low detail, no AA or physX etc. or slide it over to DX11 with everything turned up to eleven. Either way it's still a cracking game.

Yeah, I had the same specs. Leave it on "Normal" and if it seems too slow turn down some of the graphics. You don't really need them.

you should be ok, im running a 250gts oc'ed at 780cc. and i run it on high. sure my cards fan has to be turned up but ohh well :P

I played it on medium in dx9 on a 2.0 ghz core 2 duo laptop with 9700 GTS graphic card and reasonable frame rates.

So you should be fine in dx9.
