Hello,
I am looking at purchasing the video game BF3 for my husband. My nephew looked at our computer and said he is not sure if the computer will run it. I am looking for some advice. I know we need to upgrade the GPU but I will let my husband handle that. I just want to know if he can actually "play" the game.
we have a gateway sx2800-01
4GB ram
intel core 2 Quad Q8200
vista 64Bit
running Intel r g45 g43 express chipset
the minimum requrements to run BF3 are:
OS: Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) 32-Bit
Processor: 2 GHz Dual Core (Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHZ or Althon X2 2.7 GHz)
Memory: 2 GB
Hard Drive: 20 GB
Graphics Card (AMD): DirectX 10.1 compatible with 512 MB RAM (ATI RADEON 3000, 4000, 5000 OR 6000 series, with ATI RADEON 3870 or higher performance)
Graphics Card (NVIDIA): DirectX 10.0 compatible with 512 MB RAM (NVIDIA GEFORCE 8, 9, 200, 300, 400 OR 500 series with NVIDIA GEFORCE 8800 GT or higher performance)
Sound card : DirectX compatible
Keyboard and Mouse
DVD ROM Drive
I am a greenhorn and looking for some techy help. A huge thanks to those that can!!
