Before the flaming starts, bear with me on this. If you are a console player, move on - nothing to see here. Don't attempt to de-rail or hijack this thread please

I'd be interested to hear from those of you who play AC on the PC and what your PC specs are. In particular, I'm looking for what Graphics Cards you have, CPU's, Motherboards, sound cards, RAM and PSU's too if you know. We can tell you how to find out what you have if you don't know but would like to contribute to the thread.

Do you have a high end gaming PC?
Do you have a PC that copes OK with AC?
Does your PC struggle to run AC?

Why am I asking?

... Well, it should be fairly obvious given what is just beyond the horizon. I'm trying to get an idea of the 'average' PC of the AC Player - This will be fed back to Ubi and hopefully we'll get an idea of what level of PC spec will be required to run AC2.

Thanks for your co-operation

Only right I start us off. If you could follow a similar format I would be grateful

My gaming PC:

ASUS P5-K Premium Motherboard
Intel Quad Q6600 (Arctic Cooling fan cooled)
8800GTS 640mb Graphics Card
X-FI Extreme Gamer Sound Card
2 gb OCZ PC 8500 Reaper RAM (2x1 gb Slots)
Hiper 530watt PSU

I was going to flame this, then I saw you posted it, so I'll just be over here in the corner

At which point did you decide you might flame this? When you read the thread title?

*sings* 'Give peace a chance'

Besides, Ubi want to know what we got in our PC's. I expect your full co-operation

I cant say how I have my PC is setup or it disprooves a very common fix for the game

We're not trying to catch any one out - Only want to know the fundamental hardware Cas, that's all.

Put it this way, if we tell Ubi, I have it on good authority we might well find out what hardware is being used to develop and test AC2

*But you never heard that from me, OK?*

it's just the entire of my system is overclocked and that is bad in 99% of cases. but anyway heres the list.

Nforce 520 Socket AM2 Mother board
AMD X64 5200 X2 (3Ghz)
8800GT 256mb [1.5gb shared] (speeds 720, 1050, 1800)
Asus D2X PCIe Sound Card
4gb DDR2 800Mhz [running 1Ghz] (4x1gb cards)
Thermal take tough power 750watt PSU
Windows Vista Ultimate X64

rember kids overclocking is bad unless you swap out all the cooling

.....

How do you find out what your PC specs are? *hides in corner*


*is a noob*

9800gtx+
AMD 5000+ 2.6ghz dual core
4gb ddr2 ram
runs quite nicely

Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Information

Should have most of what you need right there.

Thanks!

Well that's stupidly easy, I fail! -_-
I can't even post it right now 'cause I'm on my Macbook.

Intel Core2 Duo 2.66ghz
4GB DDR2 RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT 512MB Graphics Card
Windows Vista Home Premium (DX10 compatible)

I'm going to buy it on 360. But I'm going to buy on PC too once it hits the bargain section(Just like with AC).

My PC runs AC fine, specs:

Asus M2N-E-SLI Motherboard
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5600+, MMX, 3DNow (2CPUs), ~2.8GHz
Asus NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT 512mb Graphic Card
On-board sound
3 GB RAM(3x1GB)
HDD 1950 GB(1X1TB,1x700GB,1x250GB)

Here are my specs:

ASRock P43 1600Twins (Noob, I know.)
Intel e8400 Dual Core Running stock @ 3.0 Ghz
300 GB WD Velociraptor 10k RPM OS Drive
500 GB WD 7.2k Storage Drive
ATI Radeon 4870 Stock @ 750/900
4 GB Crucial Ram (2 X 2GB sticks)
Xeon 600W Modualar PSU. (With blue LED, wOot.)
CoolerMaster CM690 Mid-Tower Case. (Best case, period.)
Windows XP Pro SP3.
I'm planning on upgrading the MoBo so I can OC the e8400. (Any recommendations?)

I run AC between 45-60 fps with every setting maxed out. I record video at about 30 FPS on max.

Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU E2180 @2GHz(2CPUs)
Nvidia 8500 GT 2GB RAM

AC runs just fine

Board: Gigabyte Technology (Lulz I know)
NVIDIA GeForce 6600 GT (more lulz)
SB Live!
2gb RAM

I have no right to be playing this game at all, my computer shouldn't be able to, but believe it or not, at the lowest graphics settings and lowest resolution, it's got a decent framerate.

Looks like poo, but playable.

wait isnt this kinda useless cause whenever Onlive comes out all need for powerful gaming desktops (for gamers) will be over? lol w/e

My specs:
Biostar n750
AMD 64 X2 5400+ Dual Core(normally 2.8 ghz,over clocked to 3.2ghz) Zalman Fan Cooled
Nvidia GTX 260 graphics card (overclocked)
Mother Board Intergrated 7.1 Surround Sound Card
4gb xms ddr2 8500 (2x2gb slots)
Coolmaster 500w

It ripped up AC1 without a single hicup

onlive is a joke, at launch it is only going to be in america and so far it has only been tried on internal networks using about 300mbs-1gbs, probly over 90% of internet connections will be totaly useless for onlive.

Couldn't agree more with you, Cas.

This thread is intended to give Atmon and the AC2 developers a glimpse of the specs of current PC rigs of the community that are awaiting AC2.

I've seen various Ubi title launches and the inevitable 'This game sux!' / 'This game is so buggy' rants,as I'm sure many of us have seen.

Often, as many of us know, when you delve a little deeper, quite often it's the players PC that isn't up to the job and not the game itself at fault.

Whilst it's not comprehensive by any means, neither will it ever be, hopefully this thread will go some way in allowing Atmon understand the spec people have and to feed that back

P5B
E6600.
4 GB ram (only using 3).
8800 gtx.
audigy 2 soundcard.
Vista 32b

No consoles.

My PC (3 or 4 years old)

ASUS M2N-E motherboard
DualCore AMD 4200+ (2,21GHz)
1 GB Corsair RAM (2x 500MB lol)
Nvidia 7600GT Silent (with Cooling block)
Windows XP Home

(But I play AC on PS3, because my PC won't run it as smooth)(=no flaming )
