generationofbmx Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I hope I’m on the right forum for this topic. Forgive me if I’m not. I’m in the hunt for a new gaming computer but want to also use it for regular computer stuff as usual. My last computer sucked for uploading mods because of all the blocks put on it somewhere deep within the settings. And I had to constantly download old files to the computer from various sites to get Oblivion mods to work on that computer. So, what is the best computer with a powerful graphics card that is Elder Scrolls games mod friendly and easy for downloading mods into my game? I’m seeing a lot about Alienware? Is that a good one? Please chime in. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamerRick Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 You can buy or build a computer today for $500 that can shred Oblivion (2006) and Skyrim (2012), and even Fallout 4 (2014). You can go to Tom's Hardware Guide for info on parts and their articles on the best gaming build for the your budget. The reviews I have seen from Alienware are not good. Cheap and overpriced. I am personally about to buy a new computer from IBuyPower. I am on one I built in 2010, but the Hard drive is going. I am looking at spending around $2000, but I want to start playing newer games too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcelandicPsychotic Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 From what I've heard Alienware is overpriced garbage that's only bought because of the brand.So it's kinda like the Apple of gaming. I think any modern-ish PC would suit you fine. Oblivion was released all the way back in 2006 so most computers released in the past 5-10 years will be able to run it.

generationofbmx Posted February 7, 2023 Author Share Posted February 7, 2023 I have a HP Pavilion computer purchased around 2015. Should I maybe just change out the graphics card to a more powerful one? The computer works just fine but I have limitations to what I can do with my game because of the graphics card I think.
