It`s already a sticky

Regards Howard

Yeah I was surprised this would actualy get a sticky

Thats a really good site! THANX!

You're welcome Sled, If you ever want to play some Counterstrike or something then just give me a message on Xfire ( my name is SilentGorilla000 on there and on Steam )

My son was frustrated because he couldn't figure out why WOW wouldn't work on my PC...This link saved me an incredible amount of time! I would have spent countless frustrating hours trying to figure it out by process of elimination.

Thank You!!!

No kidding. However, SimCity 4 with integrated S3 Unichrome graphics runs about 0.5FPH

Of course, that socket 462 Sempron may not help either...

Lol I know what you mean

Wow for the first time I saw a great link that a good programmer had done :giddy::knock:

The only complaint I have with the Husdawg utility they use is that it's SO slow to load, and I have so many games I want to check. I've been using it for a long while, but I know my system specs well enough that they could probably just hand me a list of Minimum and Recommended requirements, and I could gauge my system myself.

Not to mention, some of the requirements they list they check only for complete accuracy, and surpassing the requirement in one component won't led any weight to another that is deficient.

For instance, my GFX card is a X1900GT, with 256MB of GDDR3. The requirements suggest that one should have a card with 512MB of any DDR level, but my GDDR3 could easily outperform a substantially higher amount of GDDR2 or DDR. Given, it can't store as many textures and whatnots as 512MB, but it can outphase ones that it isn't using much faster.

I agree Baron, but still it's better then wasting $50 on a game and end up not being able to play it

NICE thx a lot for the link!

This has been extremely helpful for me during several speculatative game purchases that proved to be pointless due to my crappy hardware. But soon I'm getting a new PC with better hardware, and I doubt I'll have need of it for quite some time yet. Thanks a lot nevertheless.

great post, very helpful!

when u turn on your computer it tells you your ram, rocessing speed and everything you need to know

This is probably going to sound like I'm following you around, but anyway:

If you are posting multiple times to get a higher post count then you can earn yourself a temporary ban for doing so, so it is not advised for anyone who doesn't want to get banned.

The POST has several things that it doesn't tell you, which you can find out from software. System Requirements Lab is a very good website and I have used it many times.

I can play pretty much any game with my setup, but I need a little more Video RAM to play games like Crysis or BioShock, I only have 320 megs, I need to upgrade from the 8800GTS to the GTX or the Ultra! Other than that, I have pretty much a rape system.

Good site, when I was seeing if I could play The Sims 2 on this HP Pavilion 504n with the integrated graphiics. It recommended a video card at C-Net and KNEW THAT IT DIDN't have an AGP or PCI Express slot!

^ sorry, can't post as link because my post count isn't high enough. A mod could edit it though

Don't know if this has been posted before, but it's good and works.
