Interesting System Requirements Tool

Thanks to FableFreak for bringing this very helpful little tool to my attention, seems a somewhat underrated little tool as i hadn’t heard of it before. It works by downloading your PC components stats and analysing them against the minimum and recommended requirement specs for any game currently on the market and lets you know if your system can run it and how well. This tool will save you time and effort of going around forums asking people if certain games will run and save you money by stopping the risk of buying a game that wont run on your system.

    This tool is very popular to gamers. But there’s no listing on assassin’s creed on drop down box. I guess since the game is going to be released until 2008 (according to one of the articles of this website) they won’t post the system requirements for this website until they fix all the bugs in the game.

    this program says my process cant run any of the games that i tested like for instance oblivion. which is funny because I can run oblivion with everything on high and my resolution set at 1680×1050 which is the max resolution my monitor can go. It says my processor is to slow. it might be due to the fact it dose not take into account that I have a dual core processor. It dosent register it or something. But oblivion barely uses half my processor. But neat program non the less

    Assassins Creed will be added when its released. Also yeah i imagine it just takes your processor speed and discards the fact that its Dual Core so might not register accurately.

    Sorry for being stupid but does duel core double your processing speed. For instance a 2.8 ghz processor that is duel core will give twice the power?

    To my knowledge the only way it would even out at 5.6 ghz (your 2.8 x 2) is if they were both running at 100%, otherwise you won’t get 5.6 ghz. There may be a way to change it so you can but i dont know of it.

    I have a duel core processor at 2.01Ghz each, and it says that my computer clocks out at 5.7Ghz when I go to see if I’m able to run a certain game on the system requirements website.

    This tool’s for those of us white skinned fotophobic gamers who can not read to match the games specs with our own. :)

    can assassins creed work on:
    asusu ge force 8500 gt 256mb
    ram 2gb
    dual core 2.0ghz

    reptile,

    Yes it could, but not very well. Remember, that this is a console port, and if Ubisoft are asking for sys specs this high then it can’t be very well optimised at all. Recommended sys specs will probably be what you need to max it out.

    assassin’s creed is on system requirement lab!!
    but i dont think is right, cos it say the recommended assassin’s creed RAM is 256mb!?!? and i dont think it is!!! ubisoft recently published that it has to be 2GB RAM!!

    I’ve got the system req.s minus the processor, of which I have a 2.8GHZ Pentium 4. I’m wondering if I’ll be able to run Assassin’s Creed or not? I’ve heard of people being able to run it on “fast single core processors” but the website wasn’t very specific. Any help would be great.

    And is there a way that O would be able to upgrade my processor to dual core if it really was an issue?

    Cheers

    My processor is a 1.8 GHz dual core, but at System Requirements Lab, it shows my clock speed at 3.24 GHz. Is this because of the fact that I have the speedstep feature on, or because there is something wrong with my processor. Does this processor fit the bill for recommended system requirements (it clears minimum as far as I know)

    You know what would be great? If any of you could just figure it out for yourself. I have a 2.0 intel dual core with 3gb of ram and a decent nvidia powered graphics card and cant run it worth a damn

    Don’t know why some of you even TRY to play games like this on your store-bought systems. AMD Athalon 64×2 5400+ 2.8GHz with 4GB 800mhz DDR2, dual GeForce 8800 GT Super+ 1GB gfx cards … plays just fine, no lag, can’t wait to try it on my new 24″ widescreen. Ironman, Bioshock, Crysis, GTA SA(c’mon november 18th for GTA4 release) they all play just fine. Build a pc that will handle the games you want to play and go overboard so it’ll play next years games too.

    i have pentium dual core 2.5ghz, 3 gb ram, windows vista, nvidia 7600gs, and the game runs fine on medium settings + 1024*768 display in game settings. in between missions(where he is req to go to another city) runs slow, so i turn to 800*600 res. will soon turn to 8600gt, hope that would work better then.

    to Mooman while your system meets most of the recommended requirements the graphics card does not it is just a little bit more powerful than a geforce 6600GT the 8400series is a budget card. manufacturers often put more RAM on the card to make it more attractive however the processor of the card still lacks the power to process the games graphics try lowering the settings and/or resolution and it should run fine.

    Arthur it could be any number of reasons often the graphics card in brand name PC’s are not that great or low end budget models find out what card you have. it could also be a bad download or any number of problems try to find demo if u can and get that to run sorry cant help u to much there.

    Tanmoy i don’t think you PC can handle assassins creed simly because you have a single core processor and your graphics card is extremely old its slower than a high end Geforce 4 ti4600. try finding a demo and if u can get that to work then the game should run but i highly doubt it.
