Interesting System Requirements Tool

Interesting System Requirements Tool

Published by Dark Drakan on March 19, 2007

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. :)

    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!!

    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
