Help with pc specs

[grimstride]

I apologize if i've posted this in the wrong section but i need some help with figuring out if these specs will be enough to run the game.

 

I'm getting a new pc (yes i am a bit late to the party) and the game im most excited about is skyrim. So would it run on max settings with the High Resolution Texture Pack on the following specs

 

AMD Quad Core A8-5500 APU 3.2GHz, 8GB DDR3 RAM , GeForce GT640 3GB DDR3

It will run in no overwhelming way:

That graphics card is really poor. You really should spent more money if you are so excited to play Skyrim.

 

With these specs you shouldn't think about other HD mods or even an ENB!

You'll get poor FPS even on vanilla Skyrim with that card :(

I agree with above get the GTX 780 mine runs smooth as butter on the highest settings with 255 mods running and tons of textures....your cpu looks fine

You don't need to get the gtx 780 to run Skyrim smoothly unless you got loads of HD texture mods a heavy ENB, etc.

How about SAPPHIRE HD 7850? Will i be able to enjoy enb?

7850 should be plenty to run Skyrim with HD texture mods and a performance friendly ENB.
