Re: Will your desktop/laptop run PS2? ***Ask here***


im not sure if a 550Ti or a 560SE is better.

Right now im running a 9800GTX I know you have 560 above the 550Ti but im talking about the 560 "special" edition >_>

I would love to get a 670, a new processor, motherboard, and ram to just call it a day, but im a lil on the cheap end right now I havent gotten any contract work in about 2 years and regular work, in the security industry, is barely livable income in south florida. >_<

Quick reply: Get a GTX 460 if you can find it or the GTX 560 336/256-bit. If you need further advice please a topic on this.

My concern with these APUs are really the lower clocks on them. The GPU isn't the strongest either. Probably going to be a toss up and you will have to test on your own.

Thanks in advance!

No idea on specific settings. Video card is weaker, so I wouldn't expect anything above normal. If anything lower settings, especially with Smed saying it isn't looking good for a 8800 GT. You will likely have to tweak to see if its up to your liking.

For a upgrade the over all system is ok, but the video card has to go. I wouldn't get anything higher then a GTX 560 Ti however unless you plan on upgrading everything within the next year. If you want more help on this please make your own thread.

How well do you think this rig will run PS2?


i5-2500K @ 3.30GHZ
Nvidia GTX 560
4 gigs of RAM

I run Battlefield on mostly high at 60+ FPS, but I've heard that PS2 will be processor-intensive instead of gfx card, and even the best rigs today won't be able to handle ultra. What will I most likely be able to run, and are there any others out there with a similar specs as I?

To be honest I would have thought that PS, as a F2P game, would attempt to be easily runable with lower-end rigs in an attempt to get as much playerbase as possible, especially 1st-time PC gamers and casuals. Have they said anything concrete about this?

You will be playing perfectly fine.

The reason rigs today wont run it on ultra cos they designed it for the future, for components that don't exist yet. This way, when the technology allows for it, they will still have a fresh looking game in a few years cos people can crank up the ultra settings.

If anything, if your OS allows (64 bit), I would get 2-4gb more RAM, simply cos it's cheap and 4GB will still fairly easily run out in a modern game + Win 7 64 bit + decent amount of background applications.

You should be fine. I'd guess anywhere from medium to high settings will run alright on that.

According to smedley on reddit yesterday, they don't even have minimum specs nailed down internally yet, so we're still waiting on that information ourselves.

Re: How well do you think this rig will run PS2?


So i jump on the threat-train and ask the same question:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ (2x3Ghz)
6GB DDR2
Radeon HD 6870

Im just asking if you think the game will run at all (low settings but +~25fps), aswell i would like to ask what you guys think about an I5 3450 as a new CPU, i currently look for it and just grabbing some recommendation here and there.

I dont mean to sound rude as i dont know your level of tech savyness but you will also need a New MB if you make that move which means new ram also(as you will need DDR3 then).

On the other note you Graphics card should be plenty but that Processor is about 5 years old, i would just wait till some info comes out before making a decision but i would not be surprised if a new processor is in order.

I can't find the source but I've heard it said this won't be as intensive as Battlefield 3 currently is, but as above says, is designed with the future in mind so they can upgrade down the line when the technology caters for it, much in the way Planetside 1 was, remember the square trees and squareish guns during release? haha!
