i7 940 @ 2.93 GHz
6 GB RAM
Win 7
ATI Radeon HD 5870 Dual Crossfire

Can't wait to see what Skyrim looks like on PC. Xbox 360 screen shots just don't do the game justice. Hopefully it's Direct X11 compatible, but I'm not expecting it.

my current setup involves a primitive intel core duo and a gt 240. they've lasted me awhile, but with Skyrim comes change. my new year's resolution is to learn enough about computers to build my own rig by 11-11-11, and so far my list includes a i5 2500 and a msi n460gtx cyclone 1g. my goal is to build a rig strong enough to play Skyrim smoothly with max settings, so if it looks like it'll need more muscle i'll get a 2nd gtx 460 later on.

Desktop:
Core i7 980x Extreme @ 4.0Ghz
60GB of Corsair DDR3 @ 2000Mhz
Two Geforce GTX 580 in Sli.

Yep, things don't look too good for me but I plan on assembling a new PC later this year.

I was starting to think I had the oldest hardware here.

Intel Core2 E6300 @ 1.86GHz
4 GB RAM
Geforce 9800 GT
Windows XP Media Center Edition

And I can still run Oblivion and Farcry 2 on respectable settings. I have no plans to upgrade at this time.

uhmmm...I've just now realized SSD drives...are the loading times really that fast?

Fortunately, I've never needed too much disk space, and I already have an 250 GB HD...so I've been thinking of buying a 40 GB SSD (93 €) to install the OS and some games there (Skyrim amongst them), and salvage the old 250 for more general purposes. What do you think?

It's still a bit expensive, IMO....

I have a 60GB OCZ Vertex SSD and its extremely fast. I keep my OS and programs on there (I keep games on a 300GB Velociraptor). It was worth the price, and when I bought it in 2009 it was still $250 for a 60GB drive. Now the same drive is down to $140. The only down side is that it does have a limited amount of writes and the more it fills up, the slower it gets. But I have it split into 2 partitions, 1 30GB for Windows 7 with about 4GB left in there and it still boots in about 8-10 seconds without Anti-Virus on.

16GB RAM
2 x 256GB-300GB SSDs (no RAID, just separate disks) ... New Intels will be 300GB but possibly not as good as the Micron C400 for example

I'd be running a 12 GB ramdisk if I had that much ram.
Overkill much? Might as well buy a ~~$100~~ $300 raid card to make those faster.

Windows 7 Home Premium

2.10 GHz
3.00 GB (2.74 usable)
OS- 64-bit

I can play Morrowind and Oblivion with ease on this computer. I wonder if it'd be the same with Skyrim?

» Sat May 28, 2011 7:37 pm

I currently have nothing better than an iPhone 3G. That should be able to run Skyrim, right?

An iPhone 3g? Nah! If ONLY you had an iPhone 4, not only it would run Skyrim at max, but would also simultaneously run Arena, Daggerfall, Battlespire, Redguard, Morrowind and Oblivion. And also fetch you a beer - there's an app for that, only on iOS 4 though. Too bad! :wink_smile:

My PC is held together with rubber bands and paper clips and lots of duct tape. I hate PC's, if it's not the power source or cooling fan that need to be replaced it needs a ram upgrade or new video card constantly. deities help me if it needs any sort of software upgrade takes me hours for the most simplistic things boy am I glad an internal modem in the tower is a thing of the past for me although I now have about 15 or more different wires running in and out of the thing.
A heavy and fragile tower pc is not a winning combination for me hate lugging it into the computer shop I go to. Glad I have video game consoles so much easier.

My Laptop is

Intel® Core™2 CPU T5500 @ 1.66GHz
Ram: 2.0 GB
Windows Vista – 32bit
GeForce Go 7600 – 256mb dedicated video with shader 3.0
Realtek High Definition Audio (With SRS)

I can not quite play oblivion on high settings so I doubt that I will be able to play Skyrim at all without a new Laptop so it will be the 360 version for me

» Sat May 28, 2011 8:22 pm

3.00GHz Core2Duo (E8400)
4GB RAM DDR3
ATI 4870 1GB overclocked

AMD X4 955BE
8GB DDR3 RAM
Radeon 5870
2x 500GB seagate RAID 0

Planned upgrades...none. Very few or none of multi-platform releases I've played maxed out my machine in terms of graphics, even more so with memory. Without mods that is.

Don't think I'll need any upgrades.

i5 750 (only overclocked when I'm feeling daring)
ATI Radeon 5850
4 GB DDR3 1600, but the i5 limits it to 1333
500GB WD
Antec 902 case, but that may become an NZXT Phantom if I feel like rewiring
and a Corsair GS800 PSU

If I come across some money, I might upgrade to an 1155 rig, and I'll probably upgrade the GPU before Skyrim is released. That GTX570 is looking mighty fine right now :wink:

No, it isn't a beast, but it handles it's self pretty well.
I doubt I'll need to upgrade anything for quite a while yet (except, maybe the OS).

Waste of money if you ask me. The 1155 cpu's are not much faster than your 750. And the Radeon 5850 is still a 'high end' card, so it will probably play Skyrim on max settings...

ASUS G&73JH
Intel i7 - 720M
8GBs RAM
ATI Radeon 5870 1GB VRAM

Dunno how good I'll be able to run it. I can run Crysis on Very High at about 30FPS
