gsmanners Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 You can run whatever mods you want, but whether they'll perform at the resolution you need, I would have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronEh Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 somebody say something? Depends what resolution you plan to run. I think it will be tough getting reasonable frame rates with high graphic settings plus extra graphics mods with that card. I'm using a 560 Ti which I think is better for gaming performance and I get 30 fps in some areas with the Bethesda HD texture pack and a performance ENB mod. Your card has more Ram so that might help with the HD textures though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsoran Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I had a 1Gb HD5770 which ran quite well on Ultra with shadows on high at 1920x1080. Could never run official HD Texture but the unofficial mod texture packs were fine although I kept them to 1024x and I never used an ENB. Did have CoT, RLO, Skyrim flora overhaul, WATER, Static Mesh Improvement, deadly dragons and Warzones running, not to mention a follower mod and a horse mod. Although occasionally the setup would chunter and stutter when things got busy , I thought it worked quite well. Your kit is newer than mine, a better processor, faster HDD, more ram and a better GPU with the more memory already mentioned. Heres a comparison between the Hd5770 and the GTX 650Ti http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/538?vs=680 On balance I think your kit is fine, give it a go. If you want something better, then sell you GTX650Ti and put the money toward a newer card. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mirja Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 (edited) No, that pc setup is not good enough.Maybe you can play pacman with it if you run pacman on lowdef. Edited April 17, 2013 by mirja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
