PC upgarde compatibility?

Recommended Posts

I am investing in new hardware for my PC.

Intel i7Quad 860 2.8Ghz

4Gb Corsair RAM DDR3

ATI Sapphire HD5870 1Gb GPU

Windows 7

Are there any compatibility issues I should be aware of? I have read mixed reviews for people using Windows 7. Can i get my video settings for the game all in the high or very high range.

Is the 1.04 patch ok and no problems with this set-up. I am mostly concerned with the Windows 7 and HD5870 compatibility but i would appreciate any other feedback that is given for this set-up.

Thanks

I should have mentioned that I will be getting the 64 bit version of Windows 7. Unless i hear reasons not to.

Nothing to worried about ur spec, all is great, windows7 is compatible with ur spec n 64 bit windows7 is a great idea ;)

U can set all the settings into VERY HIGH settings with ur spec ,just make sure update ur video driver to 191.07 WHQL:D

Happy gaming mate :)

Yah, just make sure you DON'T listen to this guy who is advising you to use an Nvidia driver on an ATI card :rolleyes:

Don't just set everything on "Very high" and expect 100 FPS. Every box is different so you really need to do some experimenting to get the game running the way YOU want it to.

Tip : Don't set the view distance to 10K :D

Yeah, view distance is critical to performance, don't set it too far
