The "Will my computer run this?" thread v1.8

How much was your rig?

Less than CAD 500.00. The mainboard just reached its third year with its max 8GB DDR2-RAM Corsair XMMS2.
The Geforce GTX 460 is CAD 184.00 tax included.

FYI your resolutions are different. You're running 1280x1024. Your friend is running something like 1600x900. He was also running FRPAS at the same time.

You are right. The Viewsonic VA902b monitor (nearly 4 years old) with VGA output is the bottleneck in that case because it cannot go higher than 1280x1024.

That 0012 is looking more and more feasible.

Except for the fact that it can run TERA online and look like this:

Spoiler!

But hey, I suppose it's shitty if it can run a game that looks 4x better than PSO2 with no hiccups, while streaming in full HD. Yeah must be completely terrible. Also, the picture was a joke for the people who were actually having problems, that's not the actual score on that setup. The actual score is somewhere in the mid 10k's.

wat?

We weren't calling you out, we're just saying that a GT 530 is nowhere near part of a 'uber new and powerful computer'. It's an entry level oem graphics card, at best.

Sorry If I got a bit defensive. Just exhausted, and nit-picking makes me rage when I'm exhausted. Lol.

I am curious though, what is considered, the best of the best, top tier in your opinion. (Top 3)

[Mitz]

Graphic cards? Radeon 6990, GTX 590 and GTX 680 would be the top tier. But the first two are dual GPU's which puts them ahead for that reason.
