ununseptium · 04-18-2008, 10:43 PM

Ok its a lenovo desktop, 2.5RAM, dual core athlon 64bit, 2GHz, and ATI radeon 256MB HD 2400 XT. On scale 0-10 how do you rate it

No offense but dont get offended for no one posting. If you asked "how can i improve my computer" or "will this run war" that would be a constructive thread and there would be a reason to reply. But rating your computer on an arbitrary scale from 1-10 really doesn't say anything...or do anything for you. *shrugs*

Are you looking to upgrade or something?

yup just looking for the best computer for WAR possible.I have some money so looking to see what i can do

What is the exact processor you have?

Download CPU-z, that will tell you if you don't know.

I suppose my first suggestion would be to look into your video card (PCI-e i assume?).

However, just an fyi, that computer will probably run war fine as it is. It might not be on max settings, but i would bet it would be very playable. =)

AMD athlon(tm) 64 X2 4000+
code name - brisbane
Family - F
model - 6B
brand ID - 4
nm - 65

Is this what you want?

and what would you suggest for a PCI e GPU

The beta that I played at the comiccon. Felt kinda light on the gfx. But, then again they were using the good old over price AlienWare computers.

Take into consideration the beta is being run with lowest or lower eye candy settings.

Mind, you... The only thing that the O.P really needs is a new GPU. Try a 9600GT coupled with a "newer" 450-500 watt PSU and youll be pretty much set.

The Corsair VX450watt is a nice one or the "new" PC Power&Cooling Silencer 500 watt EPS12Volt one is too

MMOs usually strain the GPU the most followed by the RAM and then the CPU. The Althon 4000+, even running on stock clocks is still a decent CPU and should be fine for WAR if thats your only concern.
