Lord Garon Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Well, if you ask the "hardcore" guys, be ready to shell out some bucks (or pounds, or euros, or forints). For us "normal" guys on a budget, there are trade-offs; Skyrim is typically CPU bound, but graphics cards make the biggest performance jump. Look at a few gaming PC reviews for real-world info first, like at: http://www.tomshardware.com/t/build-your-own/articles/?articleType=review ^^ Actually has Skyrim benchmarks for different CPU/graphics cards. You don't need a bleeding edge machine to play a good looking Skyrim, so look at last year's builds; they have $500.00 machines which do pretty well. Good luck on your build.
