Default A little advice please

Hi all, I'm not that pc savy and need a bit of advice on changing my pc if thats possible.

Just wondered if a pc with the following specs would run SH4 decently my old system is struggling somewhat!

AMD Pheron II 955 Black quad processor
4GB DDR2 SDRAM
512MB ATI HD4850 graphics accelerator
1TB Hard drive
Windows 7
550w PSU
ASUS M4A78-VM mainboard (AM3/AM2+) with integrated HDMI/DVI/VGA Graphics
On board 5.1 sound

Other then used for wordprocessing and home accounts only other games really played that much are the neverwinter nights serious which are very heavy on pixel shading I think.

Hope that is enough info and any comments would be great if that was ok.

Thanks so much.

Steve

Hi Steve You shouldn't have any problems with SH4 with sliders cranked up.

Lesser rigs posted here play it just fine.

Btw. Specs were posted just fine.

Should be fine, you can probably crank Neverwinter 2 pretty high too.
