Darkness_E69 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 No demo available. But if you tell us your specs we can tell you if it will be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTFDarkEagle Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 You should be able to run it, just don't expect a lot. Keep the settings a tad lower and you'll be fine. (What OS is it running on? 32/64bit?) Lukas - "TIN TIN" - 9th Shrek Air Strike Squadron TIN TIN's Cockpit thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-fox- Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Will my system be able to run it properly? Is it comparable to Black Shark in regard of performance? Win XP SP3 Intel C2D E6800 with 2Gb DDR2 RAM Nvidia 8800 GTS 640mb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty_M Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Will my system be able to run it properly? Is it comparable to Black Shark in regard of performance? Win XP SP3 Intel C2D E6800 with 2Gb DDR2 RAM Nvidia 8800 GTS 640mb You could probably get it to run, but you might run into some issues with that amount of RAM. Also, I don't know if VRAM would be an issue for you with that setup. The world is going mad. Me?

MTFDarkEagle Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Yes, the RAM is an issue you are going to run into.. You might want to look into getting an extra 2 or 4gb.

Alucardos Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Hello everyone. Since you know i would like to make this question also about if my system is strong enough to bare th a10 simulator windows 7 64 6600 quad 2.4 4 Gb Memory DDR2 Ati radeon 4870 1Gb memory It would be a pity to buy it and not able to run it wouldnt it?

Rusty_M Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 You'd probably want an absolute minimum of 3GHz processor speed. It's a very CPU heavy game, and slower than that would probably struggle with a lot of AI units about. The world is going mad. Me?

Alucardos Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 so unless i make an upgrade no a10 for me right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisisentchris87 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I run the game on an Asus G50VT-X5 laptop. Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.1 GHz 4 GB of RAM Nividia 9800M GT 512MB Windows 7 x64 The game is playable, which is important. Average about 22 FPS, I guess.

KaspeR32 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 so unless i make an upgrade no a10 for me right? I have a Q6600. Before I OC'ed it the game ran fine. You'll just have to lower settings. I do have a 5770 though which helped me a lot. I would say get A-10C. If you plan on getting the game after you upgrade why not now? Then you can see for yourself how it runs.

Alucardos Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) well.... Upgrading is not inside my plans right now. And even i would, the best CPU i could buy (at least were i am ) is a 8400 at 2.66 which is not a very big diffrence i suppose. I could also choose buying duo at 3+ but i dont want to go to duos. Unfortunately my mobo takes LGA 775 which makes my choices fairly limited. So we would say that maybe an upgrade is not a solution. Maybe if i was to buy a new pc from the start. And all these because intel has the tendency of releasing new sockets so you wont be able to upgrade properly and be forced to buy a new pc but thats another story. The point is that since i am stuck with this pc i should probably stay away from a10 till i get a new pc....

Alucardos Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 or maybe i should by myself a badass cooler like you and overcloak it :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EtherealN Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) And all these because intel has the tendency of releasing new sockets so you would be unable to upgrade properly and be forced to buy a new pc but thats another story. Not another story - just not quite true. The issue has been that as they have moved to new architectures they have needed support for things that old sockets and chipsets just cannot support: for example, you cannot make a 775 system accept a CPU with integrated memory controller, let alone integrated PCIe controller or (as in Sandy Bridge) integrated GPU. One can blame them of poor planning, but that's about it. That said, if you are sitting with a 775 system I'd definitely recommend that you not even consider replacing the CPU. Replace mobo/ram/CPU in one go. This because the 775 platform is simply so old and of such a (excuse my french) crappy design relative to todays offerings (DDR2, no onboard memory controller, no onboard PCIe controller, and don't forget that the Q's are not actually quadcore chips, it's two dual-core chips in the same package, so no shared L3 cache) that spending money on it is a waste - especially considering that you can purchase new and better processors for less money than what a C2Q costs.

Alucardos Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 maybe a change to i5 570 somewhere in beginning of summer. (i am not sure f the i7 will be approachable by that time). till then...No A10.Thank everyone for the information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaspeR32 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I was going through the same problem you are having. I mean, I didn't want to spend $150 + to upgrade a new CPU on a crappy 775 board, but I did want to play A-10C. My alternative was to buy a cooler (That will work with socket 1155) that I could use now, and then for my new 2500K when I upgrade. As you can see I'm running at 3.2+ Ghz and who cares if I burn this CPU out? It's pretty damn old and by the time it does die I'll be ready to upgrade anyway. So, for $100 bucks (that I'll save later for my new CPU) I have a pretty damn fast CPU AND I get to play A-10C now. ;) If you DO want to buy a cooler let me know and I'll walk you through OC'ing it up.
