Reasons to buy a new PC
 

Have you already started making up reasons why you - coincidentally - need a new PC just before SH5 is released? My old one has RAM 512 only, so I think that's a good reason enough... I have been playing 4 with laptop, and I'm not totally happy with that.


Greetings,

Not for SH5, but I did make up reasons for E:TW, SH4, and MS Flight Simulator. :DL

I just use the 4 to 6 year rule for replacement, but only after upgrading everything I can till the MB is done.

Simply tell her you've been made an excellent trade in offer and quote the balance as 10% of the total purchase price.

Same reasons you should trade your car every 2 or 3 years.

And by god, dont EVER upgrade separate parts. Just sell your computer as a whole and buy a new one.

First reason : simulator games
second reason: Action games
Third reason : strategy games
:D


My 2400 single core, 2 gb of ram and ati 2600xt is at the end of the line, is impossible upgrade it anymore so i´m waiting playing old games until the next year when i plan to build a new Pc. :D

cause my 8800 is getting old...

If your interested in a 280 GTX superclocked let me know. I will be selling mine when the 380gtx comes out supposedly on Nov 27.

My P4 3.4 is 5 years old (Win XP GF 7600gt 2 Gig Ram) and struggles a bit with the newer games like X3 Terran conflict for example.
I definitely buy a new computer before SH5 comes out, Windows vista was my main hold back for not buying a new system.
I only hope that Windows 7 won't let me down with the maybe high expectations I have :06:

5 year old system come this Dec, so April next year I plan a new Tower. Quad Core etc. :yeah:

just a heads up reminder guys, if your on a tight budget you can pick up a perfectly fine system after xmas when lots of people needlessly upgrade to a top of the line system and sell their 1 or 2 yr old computers that quad cores and lots of ram so they would run sh5 perfectly for you.


often you can get these for only a few hundred bucks

I won't by any means upgrade or change my PC until SH5 is released, all patches that have to come made available, and a year has passed by. That's the best giarantee that I will find for a reasonable amount of money a PC that lets me enjoy the game and even scratch the best of it.

I did it with SH4, which stuttered a bit in my good-enough-for-SH3 PC, which currently runs SH4 and SH3 in a breeze, and I will do the same with Sh5. Let it stutter a bit in the beginning and shine later for reasonable budget :up:

The only thing i might have to upgrade would be my OS current is XP
i aready have a GTX 285 OC 1024MB GDDR3 with a Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E8400 @ 3.00GHz (2 CPUs)

dont believe the BS about vista/win7 stuff, thats just scare tactics to try and give you a reason to buy it

xp is fine and will always be fine for games we have now and those being released like sh5.

now next years games might be another story but game companies need to make money and with 65-75% of computers still using win xp they know they need to sell a game that everyone can use
