DirtyWombat Posted May 14, 2003 Posted May 14, 2003 I figured since I just bit down hard on the leather for a hefty system (the current system is struggling) to run SWG, I wanted to get a consensus of what people plan on running with. The next monster will start off like this... Motherboard : Asus P4G8X Deluxe Processor : Intel Pentium 4 2.8 Ghz 512K Cache 533Mhz Fsb Memory : 2x512MB DDR 333 Mhz PC2700 (1.02 Gb Total) Video Card : Geforce FX5800 128 Mb AGP 8x Tv-Out Sound Card : Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Power Supply : 465W Dual Fan Power Supply Case : 21 Inch Thermaltake 5000 I have my fingers crossed 'cause I want to squeeze as much out of my IG time as possible! Might need to pump the RAM, but I think this is a good start... What's your plans...??? Wombat
Wraith 8 Posted May 14, 2003 Posted May 14, 2003 pump up the ram? are you kidding? geez Pentium 4 2.0 Ghz 512 MB ram 80 GB HD Geforce 4 64 MB
DirtyWombat Posted May 14, 2003 Author Posted May 14, 2003 Sometimes, Wraith... I do seem to get a bit overzealous... But don'tcha love it?!?! Hey... When the 'powers that be' (read: wife) say, "go", dude I'm gone... Wombat
Jackrabbit Posted May 14, 2003 Posted May 14, 2003 Athlon XP 1800 256 PCI 2100 GeForce 3 I'm not sure on the MoBo, because I got it through "a guy who knows a guy." It's not the best machine anymore, but it's still nice. I've been thinking of upgrading for a while, but I hate to buy a new machine when I still have this good one.
Devlyyn Sarr Posted May 15, 2003 Posted May 15, 2003 Wow, DirtyWombat, that is a beasty machine! One thing I would like to say-- if you are planning on building that computer a good idea would be to invest in a nice monitor if you dont have one already. My friend and I both play Dungeon Siege at full graphics and it looks seriously about 4xs better on his nice Sony monitor (a 19" G420...about $400 ) Currently I have a 1.5ghz P4 with 256mb RAM and an older 64mb GeForce2 card but I am planning on upgrading to something similar to what DW is getting, just maybe with an ATI 9700 pro instead of the newest ones . I'd say at least 512mb RAM with a GeForce4 or equivalent card and a good monitor and this game should run awesome. I'm excited!
