Otterian Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 How about my HP Pavilion p6210y? AMD Athlon II X4 620 processor~ 2.6 GHz6 GB RAM (5.75 useable)NVIDIA GeForce 9100 graphics card (when I got it, I thought the higher the number, the better hehe). 500 or so gigs left of memory64 bit Windows 7I can usually play oblivion (and fallout) with somewhat high graphics settings at a 1280x768 (widescreen) resolution. Not sure what res I play on fallout, but when I played cod I think I did the lowest (800x600?)I really can't tell the difference between resolutions, except for maybe the very lowest one.If I would have to run it on the bare minimum LQ settings, though, then I'll just get it for xbox. I would really hate to pass up mods, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonger Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 NVIDIA GeForce 9100 graphics card (when I got it, I thought the higher the number, the better hehe). not likely - this is a hard core business video card/chip and it resents any game's graphics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natelovesyou Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 So I've got a question, I'm building a computer for a friend that I totally got hooked on Skyrim and now he wants a custom PC to handle it. :D We're down to two different video cards: EVGA GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) Superclocked 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 - $175.76, $160.76 after mail-in rebate card Only 1 GB of video ramCore Clock: 763MHzShader Clock: 1526MHzStream Processors: 336 Processor Cores SPARKLE GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 - $229.992 GBs of video ramCore Clock: 700MHzShader Clock: 1400MHzStream Processors: 336 Processor Cores When it comes to gaming, which is more important - the Core and Shader Clocks, or the amount of video ram? Because you can see that the Sparkle has double the vram, but slower clock speeds. Which one, and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hector530 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 The super clocked one is better and cheaper as for video ram most games don't need over 1gb of VRAM unless you run muti-display Now for shader and core. You won't find gfx with higher shaders then cores I wouldn't worry about it. But the most it's OCd from factory the better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowscaleB1980 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) All that quality merchandise and you go and put kingston in there? :facepalm: kingston have been in the industry for quite some time, besides here in OZ we aren't exactly fat on choices,the only other choices I have are G.skill - which I don't like at all. I could go for Corsair - they do produce decent DDR3 ram with well designed cooling, which in case you haven't noticed is a rather important thing for me.
