But yeah....
First post. Mhm. Great, amirite? Totally cool now.... cool kid..
Anyway, thought this is an interesting one, and I wanted to know if it's even SLIGHTLY possible to possibly play the CoP game coming out soon, I wouldn't even care if i had to run it on a low, shitty resolution and shitty graphics. I just want to know if I need to work for some money. (Btw: short on money at the moment and it would be nice to use this computer for another year or two :/)
(Home built, don't laugh at specs too much... it's 4 years old)
OS: Windows XP Media Center 2005
Processor: AMD 64 Athlon 3800+, Clocked speed of 2.39 Ghz
RAM: 3 GB DDR SDram
Graphics: ATI Radeon X1300 512 MB with direct x 9.0 and shader model 3.0
Hardrive: 200 GB initial, currently 70 GB
It'd be nice too, because I haven't been keeping up to date with the best shit around to buy for computers, for a list of good modern computer parts that I can buy within my $1200 spending limit, and I do not need a new monitor so I'm fine.
I'd be really happy to get a response though >.< and thank you.
Processor's good, Processor speed is good, RAM is good, Hard-Drive space is good, I'm not too sure about ATI graphics cards though.
May I ask what your power supply voltage is?
It fine.

Sorry forgot the voltage but I do believe its 480 watts
Looks nice.
Yeah it's good computer, I say you would be able to run graphics on high.
Just a note, you should consider replacing your PSU for a more powerful one in the upcoming future. I currently have a 750 watt powersupply, but that's only because of my cooling.
I got my PC for $1400, but since you don't need a monitor, I'd expect it to be around $1100 or less.

how do you get a faster processor? Mine is a +4400 and it gets exactly 2.3ghz. :/

maybe he's got a dual core? liek me :3
Lol no it's not an X2 model so it's not a dual core, but when i bought the stuff for the computer, the AMD chip made me dig deep into my wallet for $400 >.< My graphics card, though, at the time was on sale for $200 instead of $300 (THANK YOU FRY'S :D) and initially i had 2 512mb ram chips for $100 until 2 years ago i decided to buy 2 1GB DDR SDRAM chips for another $100. But anywho, the PSU wasn't much you're correct, for it came with the case i bought my computer with as well as with fans for $75. And my fucking motherboard cost me another $200, as well as the $150 Hard drive and $50 sound card. And I initally had a shitty refurbished HP vs15 monitor for $100 which i QUICKLY threw out for a kick ass HD monitor a friend had (Can't tell model number, it's scratched off)
But yeah, initially the computer was within my $1200 spending limit (Not including the RAM i bought later on) and I tend to keep it that way, because this was good for that decent price. I just don't wanna be looking at my bills and seeing "$2000" or some crazy shit like that xD.
The one thing i got upset about, though, is i mindlessly bought all the parts within a month and most of my shit sat around for a while and collected dust, so I'm gonna do this in one shopping trip.
PS: Thanks also for that, I was just afraid that it'll be Assassin's Creed for me all over again, everytime i made a kill my computer lagged for 5 seconds.
You're welcome man. Most of that stuff is probably on sale/less expensive too, since it's at least one year old.
Im pretty sure you can, GSC have been good to older machines keeping up with machines as low as Direct x 7.
