suresh.ctian Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 The bench mark test results is showing my Core duo processor as Pentium III xeon processor.What's wrong with that? In which way it will affect my gameplay. Also find below my PC configuration Intel Core 2 Duo @ Windows XP Service pack 3 DDR2 Ram 2 GB Nvidia 9400GT 128 bit/1024 MB Free Space 40 GB @ C Drive With the above configuration I cannot play my game with a good Frame/Sec (presently 10).Even after I reduced the Graphics level the game ply is vey slow. Should I have to add further 1 gb Ram? Please suggest. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supermortalhuman Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 All you gave us, other than your card, were brand names. WHICH C2D do you have? How fast is your ram? I am told you NEED a 256bit gfx card to truly be a happy camper. Other than that, another gig of ram is not at all necessary on XP SP3 and is this is a laptop or not? Gimme more info on your PC and list the settings you are playing with. Know that, in most cases, higher is better, while only few cases does low settings make anything any faster.

oc student Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Screw those people telling you to get new hardware. Just turn down the resoultion to 1078 by 789 or something like that. And then turn up the other settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkey82 Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Yeah, that card is just great for gaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKwegoharder Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Your resolution is for too high for you card to do. Turn it down to the lowest resolution and see what the performance is, then start to slowly up the settings that don't use a lot of your system. People have been able to run the game with better performance than you with much weaker hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
