So, I got a new PC. Specs:

GTX 580 tri
2x I7 core extreme
8 GB DDR3 1200 Mhz RAM
2x 1 Tb 10800 RPM HDD

Will I be able to run the game? Please help!

You are kidding, right? The answer to that should be obvious.

Are you Joking, im looking for a PC like that, that is Insanly Overkill. :brokencomputer:

showing off :stare:

With those specs you'll have no problem running Skyrim.

of course not

Will my PC run Skyrim?

Intel Pentium 4 @ 2.99 Ghz
1 Gb DDR
nVIDIA 6600GT 128Mb
64GB HDD
Windows XP SP2

:sadvaultboy: :cryvaultboy:

Tri SLI 580s?

Uh...if you bought that stuff, and don't know it's capabilities. Return it, and get a new hobby.

Also, what mobo supports 2 i7 extremes, Mr. Troll?

Why does everyone put " I don't know " in their polls? If I wouldn't know I would answer the poll...

Anyway, of course you could run skyrim with that, heck, you can probably turn a third of the graphic options in crysis 2 to max and have over 4 fps, which is good.

Upgrade the RAM and GPU at least to run it resonably...

Actually Crysis 2 seems to be less demanding then the original. I ran it all on max with a full 60FPS the majority of the time and never dropping below 45. (Just finished it about an hour ago)

As to the OPs question. I want to know where he got 1TB 10,800RPM drives. And a mobo that supported two i7 extremes.

Ironically the OPs build probably wouldnt run the game that great. Since the game is probably not going to have support for more then 4 threads (if even that) and most likely not have really good Crossfire/SLI scaling. Also the OPs build only has 8GB.....on a mobo that supports triple channel memory.

Yeah, these really transparent "See my awesome new comp! Drool, peasants!" threads are getting a bit annoying.

(And this one ups the ante by making it a poll. :facepalm: )

With those specs you could easily play any game on the market right now.

This thread needs to be locked... Do a forum search OP.

Agreed.

On topic

I got a limo and a 1 000 000 000$. Can I fit my ego in to this post?

I have a 23 inch....alchemical apparatus. I win

People are going Insane with these PC Requirements for Skyrim, yet we dont even know the Recommended Requirements for Portal 2 coming in April.

I will get Portal 2 with the PC i have now, but in October/November, i will Buy the i7-960 and a Graphics Card 570 Hopefully by November the 580 and the i7-970 is Cheaper.

People need to Chill till October the least, you are Wasting an Insanely amount of Money for Nothing right now.

I think it does, but if your'e here to show off I hope it won't (or at least it'll break a day before the game's out...).

I can't wear pants. I win.

(the op might just be kidding about these kind of threads)

Until the specs are released no one knows the minimum requirements, and that will not be for a while yet. Looking at the OP's question this topic seems redundant and has turned somewhat spammy.
