[MISS KEEP UR]

Alienware = EXPENSIVE without any good justification.

My advice is to avoid it like the pest.

Thanks. That's why I asked.

do you think this game run on my computer?!
GPU:ATI Radeon 2100 memory size:700 MB

1.50 GB OF RAM

Absolutely no chance whatsoever.

My spec:

CPU: Intel Core i7 920. (Overclocked)
Video Card: GTX 560.

What do you think fellas? Can I run this blessed game?

What About oblivion?! i haven't play that yet!

no worries i will buy for my ps3 or x360

Although the rpg game isn't good on consoles and i always play the rpgs on my pc.(on lower graphic settings)

The GT 540m is OK, but I wouldn't spend $1000 for a laptop with it.


May I suggest this:

Yes it only has a dual core, but it is a good one and the video card is much better, I have it in my laptop and plan on using it for Skyrim often enough. You can look at my laptop benchmarks in my sig to get an idea of the performance.

Nope. GPU to old and useless.

The better games, including Oblivion, require actual video graphics cards to run correctly. The very newest onboard graphics in the AMD "Llano" APUs are much better, and will play Oblivion very nicely. The old Xpress 1250 / 2100 / 2200 onboard chipset video chips such as what you have were very slow, too much so even for Oblivion.

This

+ Oldblivion seems quite playable for anyone who hasn't played Oblivion.

I'm afraid that the "plus" I see added here makes no sense at all to me.

The original Oblivion was released with the lies from nVIDiA included as if the FXes and the low end Geforce 6n00 could actually play the game, and one of the fans, who used the handle "Asp" developed a new launcher to replace the official one, to substitute Dx8 level textures for the Dx9 textures, and named his launcher "OldBlivion".

It is only useful for old cards that cannot play Dx9, such as the FXes, the GF4s, Radeon 8500 / 9000 / 9200s / 9250, and offers no benefit for an onboard chip such as the Xpress2100.

Hi people:

i5 M520
4 gigz of ram
Geforce gt 330 m 1gig
Win7 -64 bit

Thanks:)

[Wayland Neace]

I'm hoping (and assuming a little) that my PC will run Skyrim, but I would like to have your guys' inputs.

CPU: Intel 2.93GHz Quad Core i7
RAM: 8GB (4x2GB) DDR3 1333MHz
GPU: ATI Radeon HD 5750 w/1GB GDDR5
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit

I built it in August 2010 and the only gaming I use it for is TES and WoW. Since I only use it for basic college use, light gaming, and basic video editing, I would prefer to not spend a lot (if any) money on it. Let me know what y'all think.

Thanks,

PForgs

Sorry, but someone else earlier today already got the bad news about that poor grade of video graphics device (not quite a "30", but essentially the same). It's not for games, just as they were told, and you could have already seen answered.

The last "GT" that would have done what you would have liked, when it was still a current product (and for the games of its day) was the GT 240. Your GT 320 was a Low-Medium card when new, and is effectively merely "Low-End" today (there's not a useful performance differente between the 20s and the 30s). The current GT 440 /540 is barely into medium level, not significantly improved over the GT 240. The "120" was an entirely different kind of card by comparison, but other than that anomalously renamed Geforce 9n00 card, the "20" numbered / named cards have been Low End (and the 520 is even lower yet for some reason).

Since the Geforce GT 240 was new, the following cards, have all represented far less game-useful performances if named "GT" anything. These days, it's the GTS that now represents the middle of the Mainline gaming class of graphics card.

[Budgie]

If your card is 512, comp made within the last 2-3 years, has over 2 gb ram and is faster than 2.0 Ghz you should be able to run skyrim. Im reading comments about how poor and crap some graphics cards are and Im running a nvidia 310m, 4gb ram, 2.4ghz laptop and I run circles around games like Masseffect 1-2 and high resolutions, my fallout nv/3 doesnt lag, ever and Oblivions purs like a kitten. all games not utterly optimized.

now I don't presume to be a computer genius but are you telling me a game made for a old console wont run on a significant computer? notice Im not saying any computer, but significant......

[Kat Stewart]

Here are my iMac specs:

3.1GHz quad core i5
8gb ddr3 1333mhz ram
AMD Radeon HD 6950m 1gb gddr5
2560 x 1440 - 27 inch display

running windows 7 over bootcamp.

How well will it run Skyrim? And one other question, is it true that if i lower resolution to 1080p it will blur? Also, if i hook up my 1080p external display to the imac and run the game on that display, what will it look like compared to my 1440p imac display? Can i get higher settings?

Thanks so much all!

[JERMAINE VIDAURRI]

If your card is 512

VRAM is almost totally meaningless these days (as a matter of fact, for several years, it's been true). It's all too often merely a SCAM. Memory bandwidth, core speed, shader speed, number of shader processors, and RAM speed, now THOSE are actually important.

There are no mac books with any of thoughs spec you listed?

It is an imac 27 inch

http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/family/imac/select?mco=MjIwNTQyNjE

Model all the way to the right. I have ordered 4gb of extra ram to put in myself to make it 8 gigs.

You're biggest mistake is buying that for probably twice as much (or more) than it would have cost to build your own pc/buy a pc with those specs.


But anyway, yes that will no doubt run Skyrim and probably any other current game pretty much flawlessly.

I know windows computers are generally more bang for your buck, but this computers display is so damn awesome that to get a comparable windows display it would be several hundred dollars, and i bought it refurb for $1700, not the $2000 normal price. I also plan to sell the free (with rebate) printer for an additional $60-$75. I of course will game with a normal mouse, magic mouse svcks. I prefer OS X to windows 7. I understand why windows are better for gaming, but iMacs really aren't so bad for all around computing.

So can anyone say how well my mac will run skyrim? And also, can it max oblivion?

yeah, easily. Everything in it is insanely fast. Definitely max oblivion, probably max skyrim as well.
