Elder scrolls

Post by llamaboy772 »

Do you think my computer will be able to handle "elder scrolls IV" with decent frame rates?
I have a Athlon 64 3700+ Processor, 1 GB of ram, a 200 GB SATA hard drive, and a lame Radeon Xpress 200 graphics card.
(I'm holding out on graphics cards until directX10 comes out)

That alone will not run it. I don't even think that can run C&C: Generals, can it?

Actually, many stores now aren't accepting returned computer games, because you can take it, install it and just return it, so good luck trying to return it.

(I'm holding out on graphics cards until directX10 comes out)
I have the ATI Radeon Express 200, 1 GB of ram, AMD Athlon X2, But I get a slow framerate on Oblivion in some areas, because of the Intergrated ATI Radeon Express 200. Long story short, if you have a fast processer, but not that good of a graphics card, you get an unrealiable framerate. :(

EDIT: You can still play the game if you don't have the recommended specs.

Are graphics cards more expensive than game consoles? If they are, buy an Xbox 360.
