K.I.T.T. 2 Report post Posted January 8, 2009 i ran it ok with a pentium 4 3.4ghz (any dual core will run better than that) 2gb DDR2 533MHz RAM, and a 512mb nVidia 8600GT before i got my new PC. even a 256mb should run it fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ziero 4 Report post Posted January 8, 2009 I'm running it on an Biostar motherboard, with onboard Nvidia Geforce 6100, 2 Ghz AMD, and about 512 ram, it runs fine for me but I'm running VC on its lowest settings and I still have a little lag here and there.

Ziero 4 Report post Posted January 8, 2009 I think my only prob is lack of ram Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K.I.T.T. 2 Report post Posted January 8, 2009 doubt it. RAM doesnt affect frame rate much. your problem would be your old, outdated, low end video card Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daangelo29 5 Report post Posted January 8, 2009 doubt it. RAM doesnt affect frame rate much. your problem would be your old, outdated, low end video card Except if you have an onboard GPU. From a very low 12 fps with 1 GB RAM and 230 MB VRAM, it increased up to a considerable 30+ fps by upgrading my RAM to 2 GB RAM, which also increased my VRAM to 256 VRAM. The effect of upgrading your RAM to increase your onboard's VRAM and eventually performance depends on the onboard you're using. Virtual memory helps too. I'm using an Intel 946GZ with 10+ GB of virtual memory and 2 GB of system memory. The crashes in the mod only occur when I'm in post-2009 time periods. As for the lags, I only worry about them I have the draw distance on high or max. GeForce FX5500 256MB and 768MB of ram lol I have exactly the same specs on one of my secondary PCs. Same thing (SA runs better than VC with mod installed). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

♠Grim♂ Reaper 1666◙ 17 Report post Posted January 8, 2009 my onboard graphics are the nvidia geforce 6150se 256mb does that mean that my 4gb of ram(with 12gb of virtual) will increase the performance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K.I.T.T. 2 Report post Posted January 8, 2009 depends on whether your onboard shares memory or not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The frame rate is generally fine until about 1 1/2 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
