Hey, guys! I have finally decided to switch from Xbox 360 to PC. I don’t want to buy another console because I think I already have a decent PC to play on. I just have a few questions regarding my PC and its capabilities.
How do I find the specs?
Will these specs be okay to play with for right now?
How do I play online?
Do I have to pay to play online?
How do I use a mic to talk?
DX DIAG
No idea because you didn’t list your specs
You buy an online game, download/install it, start it, and play online
No
Buy a mic, plug it in to your computer, use in games that have built-in VoIP, otherwise, no mic talk unless you use a third party client like TeamSpeak or Ventrillo (or Skype)
Oh, and get Steam.
Alright so I did the DX DIAG stuff. So what do I show you so I can know if my PC is okay enough to play on?
Processor (and speed), RAM amount, and Video card (GPU) should do it in most cases.
non of this has anything to do with battlefield i hope this thread gets deleted
Sheesh, it’s just a guy asking for advice.
At the most it should be moved to the PC section, that’s it.
Processor: Intel(R) Core™ i5-6200U CPU @ 2.30GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.4GHz
RAM Amount: Memory: 6144MB RAM, Available OS Memory: 6038MB RAM
GPU: Intel(R) HD Graphics 520
I’m not trying to play in ultra settings right now, just standard specs to get by and play for fun right now.
That’s cute! Anything else you wanna say? My eyes and ears are open(:
And I did post this in the PC thread, but no one responded.
Ehhh, the GPU is your weakest point, by far. You should be able to handle SLIGHTLY older games (or slightly newer, however you care to look at it). You should be able to handle things like Skyrim, CS:GO, maybe Mass Effect 3, etc and get 30~ or so FPS if you mess with settings until you get it as good as possible. Games of that era, but newer games that are more graphically intensive will need a steep upgrade in your GPU.
On Battlefield 4 on lower settings you MAY be able to a fluctuating 30~ or so FPS.
The best way you can tell to run things is to go to the site Can I Run It (systemrequirementslab), install the browser plugin, and select any game you want to play and it will tell you if you’ll be able to run it to it’s minimum spec requirements.
i dont know with my pc i can play medium settings with a very high frame rate or i can play high with a lower framerate my pc is nothing special i only play games on it because i have a couple of friends i play with on pc.. most of my friends are on x1 though so i play mostly there
Thank you! I guess I’ll start focusing on building a PC instead.
Did you build your PC? I was planning on just playing on a simple Dell Inspiron 5559 laptop until I upgrade.
