getting new pc soon

[pkemr4]

getting this: http://www.staples.com/iBuyPower-Pow...5#desc_content

was wondering how this will handle pso2

[jooozek]

pretty badly considering it doesn't have a separate gpu
edit: actually, it does have a standalone gpu, a GT630, those are pretty bad though

[studjuice]

I doesn't have a graphics card, and it doesn't have a solid state drive, so it's missing out on those two performance things. The GPU is going to be the main thing hindrance though. You'll be able to play it, but you'll have to put it on low settings probably.

Build a better one for that price. You'll get a much better performance.

You can do better then that computer you linked. I'd recommend something like this if your limit is around $700 (the motherboard isn't the greatest but should do depending on needs):

http://="http://www.walmart.com/ip/C...s-8.1/31342476

It comes with the i5-4670k and hd7750 and according to this link it should run Pso2 pretty decent:

If you don't like the one I linked you could always try newegg DIY build pcs:

huh. the one you linked from walmart looks really nice i might buy that one instead. didnt know the 7750 beats the 630 GT..... also does windows 8.1 play pso2 and SD gundam?

[Shinamori]

I highly suggest you buy the parts though. You can use http://pcpartpicker.com/ and compare prices online. It's really not that hard to build a PC and there's tons of guides on the YouTubes. Plus, you save money. And who doesn't love to save money?

Yeah if I remember correctly the hd7750 equivalent for NVidia is suppose to be the gtx650 (non boost).

Not to mention according to site the hd7750 sorta dominates the 630:

i was interested as well because windows keeps telling me to update to 8.1. That thread says that it works on 8.1.

[pkemr4]

is there any way to make windows 8.1. look like windows 7 desktop and etc? im not a fan of the whole retro tablet design.
