    :)

    Thanks to hacking my mother's faster, more stable net-I got the benchmark to test it.

    Now-I saw the box in stores and though "wow it's here-GOTTA GET IT!" but remembered that while my laptop can do devil may cry 4-this may need more grunt...

    Here is my score and frame rate...

    C-20FPS

    Looks like I can barly do it with motion blur on-and this was enough-but with it off... (and everything set to low except for overall graphics-wanted to see enemies faces)

    B-40 fps

    :D

    My laptop JUST does it-and so I will now proudly decline any efforts of cheap ps3 60GB and just get the pc version.


    I will post the specs a bit later-for now (using benchmark) post your rank and fps average-run the demo on varible and watch it run all the way.



    Post specs as well-ethier in full or what the benchmark says.

    And post what options you have ticked off in the settigns (mine was easy-everything off or low except overall textures-medium).

    Now to find the cheapest copy :D

    if ur comp cant run crysis on medium settings or prototype in full screen mode i dont think most comps could handle RE5

    What?
    Mine can barly handle re5 thanks to the bench mark.

    But crysis is another 0.4ghz too much so why bother.


    WHat you said applies if you want most effects on-I just want minimal graphics-max speed possible.

    40fps is just enough for me.

    i prefer max grafix or it just doesnt do justice theres a lot of cheap cards out nowadays and if ur able to just sli 2 cards together then enjoy the game in all its glory

    Can you translate that-txt speech isn't my thing-and it's in the rules here :(

    But ig grafix mean "graphics" then I lack that option-LAPTOP.

    It does devil may cry 4 well enough-re5 was just a hurdle.

    Last pc game for me-ever.

    if your motherboard is sli compatible and your psu has the wattage to support it then you can tie 2 grafix cards together and roughly get 80-90% of the values from the total output of both cards combined its a cheaper alternative to shelling out 200-300 bucks on a single new card that could burn out rather quickly

    I wanted it originally for other uses-it play's blue ray disc :)

    But got tempted-and after halo2 and devil may cry 4 PLUS my adventure in emulators-such as ps2 emulation I thought it may be worth trying.

    BTW-v8 super cars 3 runes full speed for some reason-it's beautiful :)
