Recommended PC Specs for smooth gameplay?

I have a really old clunker from like 2008 that's just not able to keep up with this game - It was one of the main reasons i quit, after all.

Also, i have no clue when it comes to pcs or how to build one, i was just simply curious as to what you guys run, and what would be recommended.

Intel Pentium R Dual CPU E2200 @ 2.20 GHz

VC: Intel R G33/G31 Express Chipset family

Allocated memory 128 mb
total memory 287 mb

memory 4 gb

Vista 64 bit

 

Boy I would like to know this too. Ask once didn't get anything worth while. BP just beat around the bush. it's the lag issue that really hurts this game. Some days it's so bad it would be foolish to do anything but box. Plus this last event the lag started the day it did and stopped when it finished. well I hope they answer ya. have fun

 

tbh i dont think its the pc i think its the cheap servers we are on cause no matter the server or what im doing its lag with more than 10 people around me and while im cubing i lose 1/2 my frames so it seems its bigpoints fault- but as to answer what your asking build a pc around a high end gameplay of a game like battlefield 4 on high graphics thatll give you everythign you need and more

 

TBH its not the servers, there are many factors involved.
I used to have issues and refused to accept the fact that it was my pc, I would argue, and find other things to blame, untill - you guessed it - I upgraded my pc and had no more issues. here is my current rig:

Intel Core i7-4770 CPU

MSI Gaming B85-G43 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Motherboard

MSI Gaming edition GTX770 2gb Overclocked Card

16GB DDR3 1600Mhz High Performance Gaming RAM

Microsoft Windows 8 Single Language English 64 BIT

runs like a dream on all games.

 

Gee I hate the windows 8 if I would have known how bad of an operating system it was I would not upgraded to anything with it in it. Man it has to the worst program that they have every put out. The thing is a horror story. Looks like a toy and acts like a virus. I just upgraded, pickup and hp with windows 8 on it has 8 gb of ram and can upgraded to 32 gb of ram. The thing is the slowest. My old sony with xp was a better ,faster program then this ever will be. I've only had it for a few months and I'm already looking for a new one. I think i'm staying away from anything put out by HP not to happy with they way they support the lemons they sell.

 

Have you got 8.1 or just standard 8?

I went from 7 to 8.1 once I built my new PC, took a while to get used to it but I much prefer 8.1 over 7 now. You can even get a windows 7 shell for 8.1 making it the exact same as 7 but it runs quicker.

As for the OP, I have:

GTX 780 ti
i5 processor, 3.5k GHz
16 gb ram
2TB HHD

The game runs at a constant 60fps for me with no issues, however this build will run and game on ultra. If you want a high performance PC then I would suggest waiting for Nvidia's 800 series of Graphics Cards to come out first since they will probably be better value for money performance wise than their 700 series equivalents. The 800 series will be out in September if you are interested.

Good luck on your build
When the time comes to it just remember the small things like the thermal paste for your heat sink since that's something a lot of people tend to forget on their first build.

Thank you all for assisting with this thread.

I would move this to appropriate section for further discussion.

1.4 CPU and 1.5 DSL - 8 MB

I love my iPAd - I slap it everyday

 

You could use Chinese Tianhe-2 supercomputer (which runs at 33.86 petaflop/s) and whenever some stupid event comes on your game will play like slideshow

 

GO on piretbay get ur self a windows 7 and get avg tuneup u will be able to play agaian if its a 2 gb lappy it will work with windows 7 and 7 ultimate as ur pc can work windows 7 as its got vista on it i hade vista on this lappy took it to windows 7 ulimate work like a dream with avg tuneup and i have a rubbish lappy witch is 10 year old still works like the day i bout it out of curry its only a compaq presaio a900

 

ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z AMD 990FX Motherboard.
AMD FX-8350 8 core overclocked.
16GB of Vengeance gaming RAM (Latency 6-6-6-20).
GeForce GTX 770 graphics card overclocked.

Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 6Gbs 64MB Hard Disk Drive.
SanDisk 256GB SSD SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Drive.
Windows 8.1 OS.
However, I did not have it built specifically for gaming. I run DO 0n highest settings & very rarely dip under 60FPS.

 

Processor
4th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-4510U processor (4M Cache, up to 3.1 GHz)

Operating System
Windows 8.1 (64Bit) English

Video Card
AMD Radeon™ HD R7 M265 2GB DDR3

Memory1
8GB 2 DIMM (2x4GB) DDR3L 1600Mhz

Hard Drive
1TB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive

So would these specs run the game well?

 

Just to prove you don't need a super computer to run DarkOrbit:

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6600 2.4GHz (overclocked to 2.8GHz
GFX: Intel G33/G31 Express Chipset 256 MBytes (onboard, coz my GFX card died)
OS: Windows 8.1 (64Bit)
RAM: 2 x 2GB Corsair PC2-6400 (400 Mhz)

DarkOrbit runs 100% fine.

Its not about the hardware, its about how you set it up via BIOS etc, IE: I manually changed my RAM timings, which caused DarkOrbit to run even smoother than when they were set to AUTO).

So don't go spending mega bucks on an uber gaming rig just for the sake of DarkOrbit.

 

what a stupid reply why get something cracked and full of nastys when their is official windows 7 ISO online from microsoft for FREE

not to mention pc tuneups if anything they make more issues in the long run with broke drivers and such...

 

I spent just under 200 GBP on Ebay and got a Dell Workstation class machine and put an older but still pretty strong graphics card in it.

Twin Zeon 5160 (4 cores 3.0ghz per core)
4GB Ram
2 x 500GB drives
Nvidea 8800 GTS (512 mb)

It runs pretty much anything I can throw at it and plays DO like a dream.

You dont need to spend a lot.
Regards

 

I do use the Classic shell. My trouble is how the computer runs, screen locks up mouse stops working. Been doing it from the first time I started it up. Thing came with viruses already installed. Contacted HP support and the only thing they can do is do a full recovery. They sent me a recovery disk when and I remove all my info and programs ( this thing didn't even have a word process in it). Did everything they told me and started it back up and got the same thing I got when I started it up the first time. Never again will I by a HP anything. Going to use this one to play music on it's the only thing it do without locking up. I'm also looking for a new operating system can't stand this windows 8.1 even with the shell to make look like windows 7.

 

A Twin Zeon 5160? Isn't that a Server build?

 

If your using a HP recovery disk, it will revert your system back to its factory settings, with all of HP's nonsense software installed and running.

As I have always learnt, if you buy a PC which is branded (DELL, HP etc), completely format it and reinstall windows from a Microsoft OS installation disk. This will leave you with a CLEAN install, and not one riddled with rubbish you do not need.

 

Its a Workstation class desktop (Precision 690), Massive tank of a machine that would have cost about £3000 in 2008 when new that can be had for about £150 - £200 now and is on par performance wise with a lot of newer machines. Even has 2 PCIe x16 slots and a 1000w psu to allow for upgrading to a pair of modern graphics cards

I have been using it for about a year now and it will literally run just about any game I have thrown at it (dependent on GPU)

 

Not bad ... but mine will blow yours out of the water.

And to add to the insult, I called in a favour & mine (see earlier post) cost me only £625!! However, I do multi-task & do several things at the same time as play DO (& still get 60FPS) & so needed a damn good pc.

I know my eldest son has used it & run 2 monitors on it at the same time on full HD using the 2 hdmi ports & has been looking for my DVI to hdmi adapters because the fool wants to try 4 monitors/tvs on it at the same time!!
