    I bought this puppy like a month ago and it chews up everything I have thrown at it including Vanguard and Crysis

  •  By chews up do you mean it runs them really well, or it sucks at running them?

  • WrenderWrender Member Posts: 1,386

    Runs very well I put a geforce 9500GT card in for like 70 bucks. High settings all at like 50FPS at 1680x1050 plus has direct X 10 support.

  •  I guess ill just keep my rig if no one wants to buy it for 400 or more, maybe i can find an MMO worth playing...

  • WrenderWrender Member Posts: 1,386

    Again i say Vanguard!

    I have played em all and this is my last hope . IF SOE ever cancels it I am done!

    SOE are idiots for not realizing the potential this game has.

    Community chat is always buzzing with this same mindset.

    Check it out!

    Honestly if you put it up for sale id list it for 500 bucks and if you want you can go down to 400 but I bet someone will pay ya 500 and be quite happy. There are a lot of people that don't have a clue and will buy thier first computer in the want ads thinking they are getting a bargain.

    well thats lovely, but your obviously not playing either of those games at full settings, there is no way that PC cupled witha  9500 would play crysis or even VG at 50 FPS at full settings, you can argue it with me, but it will be nothing but bull lol

    probably $650-$700 max, the CPU is agreat reliable one, decent amount of memory, the Video Card isnt anything special, but its better than a 9500

    Im playing crysis on my old AMD single core 3800+ w/ that same card 9500GT on med-high settings @1440x900 and not even a flicker not sure what my frame rate is but i know it's at least 18-20ish. No Bull

    ANd Vanguard runs on balanced /very high textures @ 15-22 FPS

    I bought the tigerdirect model for my wife to play Vanguard with me on and I am so jealous she has everything on max right now at prob 25FPS. So yeah when I said 50 i might have been exaggerating a little. But it runs great for the most part.
