Skryim

[theitaliansico]

Hey guys i have an nivida GTX 560 wiht i72600 and 8 gigs of ram. I meet reccomended requirments for skyrim. I was wondering will i be able to run skyrim at 1920x1080 at high settings without any lag and smooth gameplay? I have an alienware 2210 21.5 inch monitor. My GPU has trouble running BF# on 1920x1080 and so instead i run it 1680x1050. I hope this is not the same for skryim.

simple answer, no one knows for certain. Although it is highly probable that you should be able to max out Skyrim easy.

The recommended (by Bethesda) for "High" is a GTX 260 or HD 4890. I would think your GTX 560 with a very capable CPU is going to be able to do Ultra. The biggest lag in Bethesda games is when your around large groups of NPCs and that i7-2600 with do great in those situations.

okay the problem is i have a dell power supply and it can only output about 460 watts. now i know this is barely cutting it but sometime i feel as if it bottlnecks my GPU. Could this be possible? i mean it has 2 6 pin connectors and BF3 performs preety well and it can delive about 36 ammps on 12 volt.

You wont suffer performance loss with a power supply that bearly cuts it.

it will either work or not work at all.

you will be limited in how far / if at all you can over clock your system.
but changing ur PSU wont increase ur FPS.
