Silkroad Online Forums

I'm looking for a new pc, but not sure what's good or bad lol, sounds so bad.

would i be able to run SRO with;
* AMD Phenom X3 8400
* (2.1Ghz, 1.5MB Cache)
* Genuine Windows Vista® Home Basic
* 3GB DDR2 memory
* 320GB SATA hard drive (7200rpm)
* ATI Radeon HD2100 graphics

i know it's vista and that's kinda loves to eat RAM, but surely there's a way to revert to XP? :/

If this system is bad, could someone give me details as to a comp that runs SRO well

thanks.

for a small payment of only $23,857.00

with lowest graphics and 800x600 resolution might start up, not sure if it could run in game

I run SRO on a laptop with a Core2 duo 1.86ghz, 3gb ram and integrated graphics(Intel Extreme piece of shit), so it won't be a problem
As long as you don't have integrated graphics, it'll run good

Budget?

Ive got a dual core e2220 3 gigs of ram onboard GF9200 and i run sro with 45+ FPS no shadow on tho. so that would run sro better than mine. Id go for that if you dont plan on playing something like crysis.

Overall, this pc might be okay, but the graphics card sux, try to get a better one of the HD4000 series.

I don't recommend mixing RAM though either 2gb or 4gb would be best

...My grandma's PC can run Silkroad... literally. It's a stock pc with 2gigs and onboard integrated video.

Best thing to do - Find a friend who is a gamer and has a PC company.
That's how i got mine. I don;t know anything about configuration, but i told him what i need it for, so now i can play even on maxed details in euro pt without a bit of lag.

pics of u playing with detailed shadows with no lag or it didnt happen

More like a video probably Because if you see a lag in a pic that would be pretty wierd...

you can get

pc list

My PC better for only 900$ >_>

Anyway your PC listed (OP) can play sro at max easily. It's an old game..single core w/ any half assed graphics card and 1gb ram can play it maxed.

Hell I used to play on a 2004-2005 HP with 1Gb ram and onboard video.

you can RUN (not play) SRO with 512 ram ddr1, 1.6 ghz single core cpu and an integrated 64 mb video card.
but that depends on what u want to do

1gb of ram will be used by windows and some other stuff u have installed(like antivirus winamp,msn..).

lol someone has been playing on the Apple website.

Although, who would try to game with a Quadro FX card? You must not know much about computers.

mac sucks noob *uber fail*

I used to run Silkroad on my first laptop with this (crappy) configuration :
- win xp
- 512mB RAM
- NO graphic card but a chipset

So I guess you might not be able to max out all the graphic options but at lest it'll run.
