Hey there, thanks for responding like this, it makes a world of difference.

So here are my specs:

Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 260M
CPU: Intel Core2 Duo CPU P7360 @ 2.00GHz (this guy is my concern, being a Duo Core)
Ram: 4 GB
OS: Windows 7 64bit
Resolution: 1366x768

It's a laptop, so overclocking probably isn't a good idea for me. Here goes!

[Je suis]

hey, can someone tell me how they think my PC will fair?

AMD phenom II x4 965 @3.6ghz

Radeon hd 5700

8GB ddr3 ram

I'd like to play it in full hd 1080

Thanks for any help

[Josee Leach]

Maxed at 1080, for higher res I'd think you would be ok with a 295. Are you on multiple monitors?

Yes I run 2 monitors. Hoping to go to 1200 any thoughts?

Low-Medium The dual core is bare minimum.

Medium, processor is...well...not that good...

Uhm...if you change your graphic card you could go Ultra with that, otherwise this is a solid medium.

That is really a shame, change your GPU and go MAX with Skyrim!

[Elisha KIng]

Just how much beefier would a PC need to be over recommended specs to play on Ultra?


I'm only running:
Win 7 64bit
8GB system RAM
Nvidia GTX 460 (1GB video ram)
AMD Phenom II 965 BE ~3.4ghZ (quadcore)

460 should max it

[Danny Warner]

Also I thought for the 295 sli wasn't an issue for game compatibility because the architecture being on one card made it invisible to the game. As such a game didn't need to be sli scalable to realize the advatage of a 295, any thoughts? I can tell you that the comp settings doesn't require it to be in sli mode because the card only uses on slot ergo one pci bus

No, even though its on one card its still 2 GPU's so it will use SLI.

For comparisons sake if you had two 295's that would actually be quad sli.

[Maeva]

No, even though its on one card its still 2 GPU's so it will uses SLI.

I know it uses sli but the question is does the game have to scale sli. Per several sites the chip sets being done on one board with one slot and the card architecture supposedly the sli is internal and does not require a game to be sli compatible. That is what several posted at overclockers was wondering what several knew about that here?

[Killer McCracken]

I agree on what you said, its a second gen of processors with AMD II...

But I dont agree on last sentence you wrote that he can pull out high on 1080p with that PC...

No way on that one though with 2 gigs of RAM and GTS250 its a directX 10 card, which means he's performance will suffer in some way, because of performance boost feature with dx11 cards, plus the card is pretty darn old 2009...
I am not saying the card is BAD, but I would not lay my hopes into high settings on 1080p with that card and 2 gigs of RAM definetly...

But I didn't say high...said medium-high. And RAM doesn't have much of a bearing on fps performance. Load times and overall smoothness, yes.

What do people think of this?

Intel core I3 550 3.2 (2 cores)
Radeon HD 5570 1GB
4GB RAM
Direct X 11
Windows 7 64 bit

Maybe medium with that if 1080p is res.

The min requirements stating a 2.0GHz dual-core chip nevers explicitly says what dual-core chip. I have asked this questions to the ones that have made the requirements and still no answers. Pentium D's were dual-core ship, albeit rather poor ones....your chip is much faster than any of those. Then there are the Athlon 64 X2's from days past...now there were even 1.6-1.8GHz X2's back in the day. I can only presume that the requirements are based off of those because they are dual-core chips too.

I still see you getting at least medium-high with your notebook considering the resolution.

Which Radeon 5700...5750 or 5770? The former gets you medium-high, the latter in high.

I've read of this before that the internal implementation of SLI is different than if it was two physical cards....not sure how true that is.

[^~LIL B0NE5~^]

is it correct that lo settings on pc is the equivalent of the console graphics? can't remember where I seen that, but just wondering if its true

[Mizz.Jayy]

The card will work even if the game dosen't scale with sli, it just uses one core instead of two is my understanding.

Not positive, im sure someone else might no for sure.

oops sorry yeah it's the 5770

[Campbell]

About low-medium...maybe medium as the game is released in 720p for the X360. The GPU chip is about equivalent to a X1800XT from years past. Tri-Core CPU and shared 512MB RAM.

i7 @ 2.8 with 4 cores

I hope I can max out all the settings. If not I'll have to go get a 3rd GTX480 and fill that empty 3rd slot in my MB

You should be able to play on Ultra with that...

[Chris Ellis]

I know I can run it, but do you guys think I can run it better than a console on my laptop?

Win 7
Intel® Core™ i5 CPU M 450 @ 2.40GHz
3.9 GB RAM
GeForce GTS 360M
Video RAM 2.7 GB
Pixel Shader version 4.1
Vertex Shader version 4.1
NVIDIA High Definition Audio

Well let's call it a mediumish performance on your laptop, considering you do NOT intend to play on high resolutions...

I think I'll do ok.

Also a little note to other people try to READ FEW POSTS BEFORE YOU ACTUALLY ASK A QUESTION, because a lot of us here have similar PC's and the answers have been answered multiple times on same page even!

Will max it but you knew that already.

[Alina loves Alexandra]

idk my friends exact specs but I know he has an HP laptop that has an i5 & dual cards an intel for low power consumption & a Hd 5650M....point being would he be able to run Skyrim on medium-high?
