At the moment my gaming rig is a crappy little Windows 7 Notebook, hardly even scratching the minimum requirments to play. it manages somehow, so what I want to know is, like the title says, if Dragonborn is more demanding to run then Vanilla Dawnguard? I'd like to play it now instead of waiting till I can afford an $3,000 gaming rig to pop it in, if possible.

It's in its own worldspace so it might actually be slightly easier on your PC. I've not found the actual content itself to be any more demanding (as it's got to run on the same console hardware after all).

Well if you can run skyrim and dawnguard fine. then dragonborn shouldnt be any different. in fact like the post above me said it might be smoother.

Huh... In that case I might just have to go download it here pretty soon. I could use a new area to breath some life back into my game.
