oOMyXOo Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Don't know where to post this. (For the moderator I'm sorry could not find the right category ) Just want to ask if Sapphire HD5570 would be good enough for this game? Here is my pc specs. Processor: AMD Athlon X4 640 3.0Ghz MB: Asrock 880GM - LE Current Video Card: HD4250 (Onboard) Ram: 2GB (but ill be upgrading this to 4 or 6GB same with the VC) HDD: 500GB My current Video Card could not play this game properly even running on 800x600.

BlackRifle Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) Just want to ask if Sapphire HD5570 would be good enough for this game? Likely, yes. However, I suggest at least a Radeon HD 6xxx series if you can afford it. When you upgrade your RAM to at least 4GB, you'll have to switch to Windows 7 64-bit.

Kaaboofla Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Odd - AMD Athlon II x4 645 ~3.1 Ghz Ram : 6gb ATI radeon HD 4250 graphics card i have yet to go below 25 fps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathisk Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 It'll be better than what you have, but it's still a low-end gaming card. If you want to stay with ATI/AMD cards then try to get a card that has a hundred's digit that's 6 or higher. That's where the gaming cards start. 5 and lower are primarilly desktop applications and media/DVD playback cards. So for the 5000 series cards, you'd want to look at something like a 5770 as a good graphics card, or a 5870. Those will give you pretty good performance.

oOMyXOo Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 Thank you for the replies I appreciate it. Now I have 3 choices: Sapphire HD5570,5770,5870. Gonna check which among these video cards can run on a generic 600 watts PSU. I've done a quick research about the 5570 and it could run on my psu that's why it's my first choice. By the way yes I will also upgrade my ram and I am already running on Windows 7 64 bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evilpuppy Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Short Answer yes.. Long answer depends if you want to play the game at a constant 30fps. Also depends on your screen rez. You should consider upgrading though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaimiIflya Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I wouldn't get anything less than an X770 (X = 5, 6+) A 6770 and a 5770 are pretty much, Equal. And, they also are about equal to a 4850 (but, a 4850 doesn't have DX11) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blowmedown Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 yes they are equal i jus found this out as i bought a 6770 and i get same fps what a buggar should of stayed with a 5570 aso the 5570 runs on 250 wat If your saying a 5570 is equal to a 6770 your very wrong. The 6770 is more than 2x a 5570 As far as the watts needed TDP for a 5570 is 43 Watts TDP for a 6770 is 108 Watts http://www.hwcompare.com/5693/radeon-hd-5570-vs-radeon-hd-6770-1gb/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Althire Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 BTW that web site is wrong for the 5570 as I also have a 5570 and my specs on the card are higher than that web site quote just for instance the card has 2gb of memory and the site suggests 512mb so it's not correct and that's not the only thing that is wrong.

To the OP - any card mentioned will be a massive upgrade on the 4250 which isn't actually a graphics "card", it's just an integrated chip on the motherboard and not good for modern gaming.
