Hi peeps,
After a quick bit of advice as my knowledge of system requirements and what they mean is rubbish!
My present PC is about 5 years old and can't play Heroes 6 which I got for Christmas.
Will the following system play it?
CPU and Memory:
•Intel G550.
•Processor speed 2.6GHz.
•8GB DDR3 RAM.
Hard drive:
•1024GB SATA hard drive.
DVD optical drives:
•Dual layer 22x CD-ROM speed ,8x DVD-ROM speed.
Graphics:
•Shared graphics.
•On-board graphics memory.
•Intel Intel HD 2000 Graphics Card graphics card with 1MB memory.
Interfaces and connectivity:
•6 USB ports.
•Ethernet port.
•Wired keyboard and mouse.
Sound:
•8 channel sound system.
Operating system & software:
•Microsoft Windows 8.
•Microsoft Home and Office (trial version).
•Adobe Reader.
Thanks for your help
What computer do you have now - what OS, what CPU/GPU/RAM?Originally Posted by nickwalton1 Go to original post
It may still run Heroes VI, maybe you just need to tweak it.
Also, not sure what program you used to check that new PC (or laptop?) specs, but it sucks - there are no Intel GPUs with 1 MB of memory, that makes no sense.
My present system is old.
Operating System: Windows Vista™ Home Premium
Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3600+ (2 CPUs), ~1.9GHz
Memory: 1790MB RAM
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 7025 / NVIDIA nForce 630a
Manufacturer: NVIDIA
Chip type: GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a
DAC type: Integrated RAMDAC
Device Key: Enum\PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_03D6&SUBSYS_03D61849&REV_A2
Display Memory: 889 MB
Dedicated Memory: 249 MB
Shared Memory: 639 MB
This is the link for the PC http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...ber/154308.htm
Your present PC will run the game fine, if you get a separate/discrete videocard. You just need to buy a Nvidia or AMD videocard with 512 MB or more of videoRAM, and the Heroes VI game will work sufficiently well.Originally Posted by nickwalton1 Go to original post
EDIT: Sorry, got confused - is the link you are giving a link to your present PC, or a new system you intended to buy?
EDIT #2: Sorry, I am not sure about your CPU too - it seems it may be too weak for the game.
Maybe someone else here can chime in with a suggestion.
Anyway, this is NOT the proper forum to discuss computer hardware.
Your old computer will not be able to run it. Minimal specs for the game are here. Your new computer will do but you will need to add a graphic card, probably ATI HD6670. Anyway I hope that it's a deal, cause it's just office PC.Originally Posted by nickwalton1 Go to original post
Specifically for Windows 8 I can't say. Probably it will not be complication, haven't chance to try. As for Microsoft Office try to take something from Toshiba or HP, where is included Microsoft Office Start.
