[wilem_WAR246810]

here is my RIG:

I hope u guyz understand dat

I'm Windows XP(will upgrade to Windows 7 soon)

....Can I run Mass Effect 2 at atleast 1280 res? and with wat detail setting? no AA or AF required here

I run Crysis almost all high except objects,game effects,particles and postprocessing which are medium with sunshafts on...silky smooth performance with some split second stuttering here and there

all help is highly appreciated!

You'll max it out at 1280X1024.

Good luck!

CPU could be a problem, everything else is fine.

Maybe a little low on CPU side, but don't think it will stop the game being playable. Enjoy.

These are the RECOMMENDED requirements for mass effect 2 :


* Windows XP SP3 / Windows Vista SP1 / Windows 7
* 2.6+ GHz Cure 2 Duo Intel or equivalent AMD CPU
* 2 GB RAM
* ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT, NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT, or better recommended
* 100% DirectX compatible sound card and drivers
* DirectX August 2008


Your system meets the requirements and you're playing at only 1280X1024.
That's why I said it will max out the game.

I have a very similar PC but haven't tried ME2(No money🙁 )

Just found a video with description that answers your question.

This guy claims he run ME2 on 1280X1024 with 9600GT and a Dual core with 2GB Ram with 50fps(Which is decent).

Have a look at the video as well as the description

[wilem_WAR246810]

yeah but his processor is a lot better...know anybody with the same processor as mine or weaker that ran ME2 fine?(E5400)

 

[wilem_WAR246810]

oh BTW, how do put a pciture in ur signature?

Your processor is comparable to that 3Ghz dual core.
If you experience some lag(Which, i don't think you'll experience ) then OC your CPU a bit. OC upto 3Ghz won't need any effort!!

Like this 😉

But my Intel Dg31PR won't let me OC my processor.

Mass Effect 2 runs smooth as butter maxed out at 1920x1200 on my 4 year old dual core:
4200+ Dual Core (2.2 GHz)
2 GB RAM
GTX 260

Your processor won't be a bottleneck.

Your specs seem pretty good, just not for the max settings.
But other than that Mass Effect 2 will run.

OMG nice! I'll just buy it then

 

[damian86]

I am sure you could. I can run it at max setting no problem on my Pentium D :L

 

[wilem_WAR246810]

woah it cud run awesome in ur current rig with pentium D and 9600GT!?
awesome!, I've heard its a lot more optimized than Mass Effect

 

[damian86]

Well, what can i say, just 1 word: Smooth

You should visit http://cyri.systemrequirementslab.com/CYRI/intro.aspx and run it (after selecting mass effect 2). They will analyse ur PC and give you the settings on which u can run MASS EFFECT 2 on. you'll be able to play it anyway, so theres nothing to discuss here.

Doesn't makes a difference.
