urrinor Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Hello people more knowledgeable than myself! Since the pc specs have now been released, I am here to ask, as the name of the thread suggests if my computer will run skyrim. I plan to do an upgrade by the beginning of November, but am not entirely sure if I will be able to... My question comes in two parts. My current specs are: Graphic card: ATI RADEON HD SAPHIRE 4850 512 Mbs DDR-3CPU: INTEL CORE 2 DUO 2.33 Ghz E@6550RAM: Kingston 2Gb com 333 Mhz de clock Yup, my ram is awfully slow, and I think it will be pushing it to expect Skyrim to run here.... Anyway, how do you think my pc would handle the game (if at all)? _________________________ Now for the second part... I plan on putting this in my PC: Motherboard: ASUS P8P67 PRO Intel P67 SK1155 REV3.0 CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K (Unlocked) 3.3GHz (3.7GHz Turbo) 6MBRAM: G.Skill Ripjaws X DDR3 2x4GB 1600MHz CAS9 1.5v Low Voltage The graphic card will stay untouched for now... It will be a bottleneck to the rest, but I figure it isn't the most urgent component to substitute. So, with that configuration, how would Skyrim run? Medium? Thanks in advance guys :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe close to high settings, if your resolution is not too high (because of your 512 Mb VRam). Edited October 27, 2011 by VBlackfang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ategro Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Intel Core i7-2600k CPU @ 3.40 GHz (8 CPUs), ~3.4 GHz16384MB ram2x 500 GB 7200 RPM HDDs260 GTXCorsair HX-520 PSUWin7 business 64 bit Your video card is "recommended" (so, high settings, not ultra), but everything else is way above.It's almost a shame to use that video card with your processor.At least Geforce 560 Ti, Radeon HD 6870 or 6950 would make your system really shine. Thanks for your replies you two. I'll get into replacing it then. It was a birthday gift from my father (last year) so I feel sort of connected to it, as weird as that sounds, but anything for Skyrim I guess! Totally agreed. A top notch CPU and 16GB of RAM paired with a Mid-range 3 generations old video card is just....well... sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zinro Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 OS: MS Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bitCPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955RAM: 8.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 669MHz (9-9-9-24)GFX: 1024MB GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Gigabyte) [OC version, I believe, running at 900 MHz during games]HD: 977GB SAMSUNG SAMSUNG HD103SJ SCSI Disk Device (ATA) It should be more than adequate for running stuff on high, but does it do ultra as well? It's not like I have any kind of cash to replace stuff with, but hey, curiosity doesn't hurt :P Max resolution on my screen is 1920x1080, btw.

Hmm, that sounds a little under-powered. You might be able to run it on low settings. You should add a liquid nitrogen cooling system and overclock everything to be sure. You might be able to play at medium settings if you set up an SSD RAID and get an extra 10 gigs of RAM. Edited October 27, 2011 by xaliqen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
