I want to get the game on my computer but i have some questions

i know the website says the 6 series, i have a geforce 6200 would it work?
and the website also says you need to have 2 ram, i only have one would this make the game unplayable?

Thanks for any help at all :D

i think your lack of ram would mean that the amount of lag you would get would make you think the game was not worth playing even if it worked.

The game might work although the card doesnt appear to be officially supported.
Dont expect to be able to play on ultra settings with smooth fps (if you get it to run). You might pull
low to some medium settings with that card.

There is a youtube video of someone with that card playing new vegas fairly well.

You may even be required to use the performance dll from falloutnexus.

I wouldnt expect much from a rig like that. Thats my opinion.
YOu currently dont officially meet the system requirements so dont expect much (you'll definitely need more ram). Not sure what other hardware you have or OS.
Not to mention the other hardware in your system (low end high latency memory, slow hard drive, slow busses, etc) that are potential bottlenecks
Im guessing this isnt a gaming rig either. So if all you do on the computer is basic things such as word processing, internet, email, etc you havent really stressed your
computer yet. Dont be suprised if you buy the game and find crash, lag, freeze issues.

Bottom line: You take the risk if the game does or doesnt work (whether its playable or unplayable). Not sure bethesda official tech would even help you with a rig like that.
