How well will Morrowind work on my PC

jabidas · 08-27-2002, 06:58 PM

Hallo everybody.

Really want to play this game and Im curious how well it will work. No point in playing in jerkovision is there? Unless you are some sort of masochist.

Anyway here are the specs.

Graphics Card: GE force 2. Dont know which brand.

Sound Card: Not sure it does creative EAX. Maybe that means something?Wait now that I look it has Sb live. anyway im not much worried aboiut the sound but about bad frame rates.

Motherboard: It has 800mhz

Ram: 128 megabites of this stuff.

Minumuim System Requirements are win ME 128MB RAM; Win XP/ 2000- 256 MB RAM; 500 Mhz--P-3, celeron,or Athlon processor.

Recommended 800 Mgz -256 Ram

Sounds like you will be able to but your on the line jabidas.
Alot of earlier posts about this subject if you wish to research it a tad bit more. I have a 1.7 p4 and at times it was tired ...

Your system is close to what I was running before I upgraded (for this game of course! [img]graemlins/showoff.gif[/img] ) You won't be able to run at the higher res or with any of the higher intensity graphic settings, but the game will run for the most part pretty decently. The graphics are pretty decent even with all of the effects off. WARNING: Make sure your game res is set = your windows res or you will crash to desktop often.

Thanks guys, I really want to play the game and dont mind it being a bit ugly.

Oh don't worry, it won't be ugly, just not as pretty. And there will be slight slow up occasionally. But that won't make the game unplayable, in fact - barely noticable. Just remember my warning and you'll be fine. You will definatly enjoy [img]smile.gif[/img]

Happy Gaming!

If you go ahead and add a couple of 128MB modules to your PC, you won't regret it with Morrowind, that's for sure!!

Its gonna chug abit. However I recommend upgrading the graphics card over your RAM if you have a choice.
