General Discussion - Can my friend run this game decently? - Forum

yeah if only adding a video card was possible, it's an all in one PC. Hence why he's getting a brand new pc made fresh. xD No problems, I'm fairly confident his computer can't run it so we've already scrapped the idea of him playing, but I'm planning to jump on it by myself anyway, looks too beast to pass up.

Partied I have to kill post-processing, shadows, and high textures, and still only get 20-30fps. I'd be skeptical about it working; but to find out you'll need to actually go beyond the login screen and try playing. If $10's too much to risk to find out, I'd suggest waiting until it's free to play (supposed to be next month). You might have something going on there because I'll run my game on high everything and get 50-60fps no matter how many people. My GTX470 is dying too. I might just be lucky. The card works fine for compute, so I don't think there's anything wrong with it. What res are you playing at? I assumed I just ran into memory limits at 2560x1600 since I only have the 1GB variant of the card.

Why the hell would you play at 1600 on a 560?	Posted by Xendran#1127 on Nov 13, 2012, 10:59:41 PM Quote this Post
So I myself am playing on an i5 quad core with a GTX 260 card and 4 gbs of Ram at the moment, how well do you think it'll run on my system? Given the response of the previous poster, he only stated 512 dedicated video ram, not sure how his video card compares to my own, but same processing and ram power. Curious if I'll have issues at all.	Posted by Botseks#7718 on Nov 13, 2012, 11:39:29 PM Quote this Post
The game runs fine on my system with no slow downs. 22 inch monitor 1680 * 1050 Win 7 64bit Intel i3 - 2100 (3.1GHz dual core) 8GB of cheap RAM (game uses 1600+ MB) 8800GT 512MB Intel SSD (levels load in 3-5 seconds)	Posted by pkilla666#1630 on Nov 13, 2012, 11:49:48 PM Quote this Post

Normally alright unless there is a lot of stuff on the screen. (can't party with or play a summoner witch) It's your onboard GPU. My CPU is much less than yours. Upgrade your GPU and you will be rocking hard.	Posted by pkilla666#1630 on Nov 13, 2012, 11:52:13 PM Quote this Post

For partying I might do better at 1920x1200; but changing the resolution of one monitor in a multi-monitor setup causes windows to thrash the size/position of everything on the desktop. Besides when I'm playing with several other people the screen's too full of projectile spam to actually notice what anything looks like. ;-p Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?

I assumed I just ran into memory limits at 2560x1600 since I only have the 1GB variant of the card. I had MSIAfterburner running when I played solo last night; I was at 80-90% memory capacity and 30-40% GPU load (unless I tried cranking AA in which case it maxed out and framerates collapsed). I'll take another look the next time I join public map runs; but a memory bottleneck appears to be the issue.
