    type of skyrim sword

    in Skyrim LE

    I'd hope there is some type of Rapier like weapons because they were effective for finding small gaps in an opponents armour and i like that kind of play style. where i wait for the opponent to strike and then deliver a devastating counter :D

    You should really post this question here

    http://www.thenexusforums.com/index.php?/topic/388498-the-thread-of-computers-aka-will-my-computer-run-skyrim/

    intsead of making new topics.

    Just saying....... :armscrossed:

     

    EDIT: to answer your question tho your system specs seem ok (as far as Ram and processor speed) but i'd say you coud do with a far better graphics card for sure. A Radeon HD 6750 at the very least. however i dont know how easy it is to change graphics cards in laptops.

     

    Btw.. Welcom to the Nexus do pardon the first part of my post, I should have read it before posting.

    Well, it's nothing I'm proud of really. But when I check the requirements these days, the only big problem seems to be my old card.

     

    Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40 GHz 2.39 GHz

    4.GB RAM

    Vista (might upgrade to W7 before Skyrim release and add like 2 GB of RAM)

     

    If you have any advice of what to get, please don't be shy ;)

     

    My personal opinion is that your system as it is should be fine for Skyrim

    (but we'll see when they release the official system requirements)

    My advice would be that it isn't necessary to upgrade to win 7 unless you like I am sick to death with Vista lol

    My other piece of advice would be about your RAM.

    If you are going to upgrade that then i'll pass on some advice that a friend of mine gave me, and that is that before you choose the RAM you want you should first check what kind works best with your motherboard.

    EDIT: (This is because not all Ram is compatable)

    I have a Gigabyte motherboard so I checked their website and found that a brand called “Corsair” works best with my motherboard.

     

    Yeah man, thanks. The thing is, I have 32 bit operative system, which only recognizes like max 4GB of RAM, that's why I thought of Windows 7 64 bit operative system, because then I can upgrade my RAM easily.

     

    Oh i see lol well in that case its a MUST! ha that was the same problem my friend has with vista. he pluged in two 4GB sticks and couldnt understand why he was only getting 3.86GB's worth.

    what size of hard drive do you have?

    As far as cases go, I went for Coolermaster HAF 932. A massive brute, but quiet with huge fans.

     

    I have this case here.

    and it has x3 120mm fans but i wouldn't say they were big.

    What is concidered a big fan?

     

    120mm is about standard size for case and cpu fans. My Case has a 200mm fan built into it (Antec 900), which I would say is big.

     

    haha yeah i would say so two its nearly double the size of mine, dont think i could fit that into my case! :P

    I really want to be able to block with one-handed weapons like in oblivion. From experience with other TES games, most of what I can think of (including this) will probably be made.

     

    I think this is in the game already?!!? i saw a vid where a guy was just using an axe in one hand n he was blocking

    I'm buying Skyrim from Wal-Mart the day it's released, they never close and there's like a million of them in Florida, you could probably find one in the middle of the woods somewhere.

     

    bet there isn't one in the swamps! :P

    rage released yesterday so I'm expecting "or at least hoping" that the Skyrim info starts pouring in some time soon and doesn't stop till the game releases :3

     

    you and me both! out of curiosity did you get rage?

    Need a new PC

    I absolutely agree with hector.

     

    Switch to a 2500k, which would mean getting a 1155 LGA motherboard.

     

    EVGA is the best brand for nVidia cards as well.

     

    I could recommend some AMD and ATI CPU's/Motherboards/GFX cards as well.

     

    Ah, here i go, im about to show you what a noob i am :facepalm:

    whats special about getting a 1155 LGA motherboard? i dont really know, well... anything about motherboards at all.

    and i'd appreciate your recomendations :thumbsup:

     

    1155 is the socket type. your motheboard needs to be this socket type to be able to use the new sandy bridge CPUs such as the i5-2500k they were mentioning.

     

    oh, ok so it only affects what kind of CPU you can have? is that the only thing that it affects?

    thanks for posting btw :thumbsup:

    Sounds solid. But what about while you are trying to FIND the Elven Armor and Silver Swords?

     

    Didn't think of that one :S

     

    you'll have to either go naked and keep ur pride or wear leather and appear weak :P
