Placebo 29 Posted July 24, 2009 Why on earth was the 'Superhuman AI' thread merged with this mega thread!?!?!? I clicked the wrong box when merging threads before. At least it saved keimosabe from getting an infraction for starting new threads without searching first as there are a number of existing AI threads :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Headshot119 10 Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) Current Specs AMD 6000+ Dual Core, default 3.1GHZ. Overclocked to 3.27 GHZ. 2GB DDR2 800 Ram. ATI 4830 Graphics card. 500W PSU What could I improve in this setup, defiantely going to get 4GB of ram, no point getting more as I'm running XP 32, so.... What else, new CPU looking at an AMD Quad 3.0 GHZ overclocked. Edited July 27, 2009 by Headshot119 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
echo1 0 Posted July 24, 2009 default 3.1GHZ. Overclocked to 2.27 GHZ. Lolwut? It's a pretty decent spec. The graphics card isnt the fastest in the world, but I suppose it's good if you are on a budget. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lich342 10 Posted July 24, 2009 High I'm new here so I wanted to know if my computer will be able to run ArmA 2 at high or max settings. I ordered it so it should arrive fairly soon, but I would like to know at what settings I can hope to run ArmA 2 at. Specs are: Processor: AMD Athlon X2 7750 Black Edition 2.7GHz Dual Core (2x 512MB L2, 2MB L3 Cache) Graphics Processor: Single 512MB GDDR3 ATI Radeon HD 4850 Memory: 4GB« Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 800MHz - 4 x 1024MB Wasn't sure what I should post, I love video games however I don't know a thing about computers. If I should post any other information I'll post it asap! Thanks in advance! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lich342 10 Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) Well their not exactly the same, I have a dual core and you have a quad core. You also have the 4890HD and I have the 4850HD, but i sure hope that our computers can run it! You probably will kill me if we're ever online in the same game tho :p.

maturin 12 Posted July 24, 2009 Looking at the benchmarks for the NVIDIA Quadro FX 770M, it seems like it could run Cyrsis on medium settings, but I keep reading that it is designed for graphics-intensive 3D design programs. Should I be worried about that? Would it handle Arma? It's for a HP EliteBook 8530w, btw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
echo1 0 Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) r u fckin kidding me :oso bought a new pc... changed my card... now my screen goes standby when i played Crysis again :s omfg Did you connect the PCI-E power cable for your graphics card? Looking at the benchmarks for the NVIDIA Quadro FX 770M, it seems like it could run Cyrsis on medium settings, but I keep reading that it is designed for graphics-intensive 3D design programs. Should I be worried about that? Would it handle Arma? According to wiki, it's a workstation-graphics version of the 9600M-GT, a respectably powerful card for a laptop. However, as you point out, the firmware and drivers of the Quadro cards are optimized for accuracy over speed, so there is going to be some performance penalty versus the consumer version of the chip. However, I'm not entirely sure how big that difference is, and it may vary from card to card. I don't think it's particularly big anyway, so you should be safe. And if benchmarks say it's good, I wouldnt argue. Edited July 24, 2009 by echo1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JK07 10 Posted July 25, 2009 Ok I've been searching this thread for about an hour now and I'm more confused now than I was before I started. Maybe someone here can help me. I'm looking to buy a decent PC that I'll be able to play ARMA 2 on low/normal settings. I'm almost clueless when it comes to PCs but I think its time for me to buy something I can at least play this game on. My budget is somewhat limited (like I said I just want to be able to play on low or normal settings) so I can't get the best hardware out there. I've heard people say the best thing is to buy the components and build it yourself, since that's cheaper, but I just don't know I have the technical know-how. Can somebody point me in the direction of an already put together piece that I could buy to get where I wanna be? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMD Phenom II 955 x4 3.2ghz Quad 2x2GB DDR3 RAM 1200mhz (summat like that) Nvidia GTX275 Someone told me the spec looks good on paper but ArmA2 can sometimes be wierd about certain set ups...
