Looks too like i'll be going the Quad Core route.

karamazovnew · 11-19-09, 09:56 AM

Quad Core is like so yesterday...

Gonna ask my sugar daddy for this: http://www.nordichardware.com/news,8126.html

Hello,

I have a i7 920 Do overclocked to 3.2Ghz 6 GB Ram and GTX275. I feel that this would be fine. What do others think?

tomfon · 11-19-09, 03:23 PM

Do you think that an ATI 4650 1Gb will do fine?
And what about the X1950GT 512Mb? Thats the card i have on my desktop computer.

11-19-09, 03:56 PM

guys, just look at the specs listed

if your hardware is equal to it or newer than whats listed then you should be fine

no one will ever know for sure exactly what you "have to have" untill the game comes out anyway

HMS Astute · 12-14-09, 09:55 PM

I'll be fine

Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 2.66GHz x4
2X 2GB DDR 800 Ram
Nvidia Geforce 9800GT 1024MB

I have a quad core @ 3ghz. (OCed Q6600 I think), 6 Gb ram and a GTS250.

Any thoughts on the GTS250?

It runs FSX quite well. The low resolution set forward in the OP worries me. Its low on modern LCDs.

theluckyone17 · 12-15-09, 07:52 AM

What resolution are you running?

Plainly put, I'm running a 9600GT right now... monitor's native resolution is 1440x900 (19" WS).

The 9600GT should come awful close to giving me the performance I want in SH5. If it doesn't, that GTS250 is going to be my choice to replace it.

GTS250 = 9800GTX+

Should be fine.

Thanks guys! Wasnt trying to be smug or anything. Its just that the GTS250 isnt excactly "top of the pops". Good to know. I am restricted by my DELL PSU. (XPS 420)

@Arclight: What/where is that perscope picture from?

@lucky: For now 1680x1050. I am upgrading to a larger monitor soon. Guess the norm now is 1920 x something.

PS: Is quickreply available on this forum?

Arclight · 12-15-09, 11:11 AM

You mean the sig? SH4, think with PE4. Scanning for prey off the Japanese shores.

It's hard to say what the norm is, if there is one, considering these "modern" flatpanels have fixed resolutions. For my trusty CRT, 1280x960 is the norm (next step up is 1600x1200). That's 1.228.800 pixels: I guess something comparable is the norm for LCD.

As for quick-reply, I think that's only available for PMs and visitor messages on your profile.

3.0 GHZ is pretty steep for a modern game since most CPU the Highest ones are 3.6 that cost an arm and a leg.

Lucky I have a DUo 3.0 GHZ but still, this game has the highest recomended settings I have seen in a game yet for CPU.

Funny how everything else is on par with all other game releases though.

Even my same DUO That I bought 1 year ago is still about the same cost it was 1 year ago, which tells you how far they have not come with the new chipsets.

That is pretty high. I have a 2.5 Core 2 Duo and most of the games I have are nowhere near the requirement of 3.0 gigs. You would think with the advancement of modern technology they would have some technique to make superb graphics with minimal strain on the processors and graphics cards.

01-08-10, 10:50 AM

well guys even thou the duos are fine cpus they are old and today its all about quads and in terms of quads a 3.0 duo equals a 1.5ghz quad so looking at how many games require at least a 1ghz cpu it "looks" like its following that size pattern

Col. Caldwell · 01-08-10, 10:55 AM

Seems to be the trend now. It seems to me that graphics cards (not to mention computer models) are quickly being outdated in less than a year, with newer models coming out in months.
