TripleSeven Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Recently got a hold of a computer that, while certainly not spectacular, seems as though it would be up to running New Vegas if it got a new video card. Windows XPIntel Pentium D Dual Core 3.4 Ghz3GB Ram The problem lies in the fact that (as you get what you pay for) the graphics card is an onboard, and the only option for upgrade is a PCIe x1 slot. Now I realize X1's are about as far from ideal as it gets where graphics and gaming are concerned, but, accepting the situation as-is, I've come across a HP ATI RADEON HD 4650 DP with just over a gig of memory currently for sale, and I'm wondering if that would allow me to run a playable New Vegas (even on lower settings) and if not, if there is any known X1 out there that would be better suited to the task. Any help is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilneko Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Very likely. You will have problems in The Strip though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodoron Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 ATI RADEON HD 4650 DP I'm pretty sure it should be ok. I used to run the game with a Geforce 8500 and that was fine. Then it broke and now I'm using a Geforce 7600GS (cheapest piece of crap, not even sold in shops when I downgraded to it). Runs fine on low, with model textures at medium.
