Telltale Games

corruptbiggins · 09/15/2009, 10:56 am

Intel Core2Duo @ 2.13GHz
2GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS 320MB
Windows XP

Runs perfectly on highest settings at 1440x900.

Built the computer myself a couple of years ago for around £600 and it's still going strong. Would have probably cost double that if I bought similar in a store.

Runs perfectly on 9.

I have a similar philosophy, however with mine I use the same PC, and alternate which parts I upgrade. Like next year I am planning to upgrade my motherboard, whereas my past couple upgrades have been video card, cooling, power supply, and RAM. So really it's the same PC, but it slowly evolves.

Ah, a "pimp-my-monkey-island-playing-rig" thread

Mine:
CPU: Intel Q9550
Memory: 4GB, 1066MHz @CL5
Chipset: Intel X38
VGA: GeForce 9600GT-512MB

It runs perfectly on level 9, not dipping below the fps cap. My monitor limits the resolution at 1280x1024, but I'm sure it would run similarly up to 1920x1200.

a 4GHz Core2Duo???? wow... those are VERY rare (as in: don't exist)... or did you overclock the proc.???

iMac 24 " Intel Core 2 Duo 3,06 GHz 4 GB RAM
Windows 7 RC, Nvidia GeForce 8800 GS 512 MB

Runs perfectly in 1920 x 1200 (except I must restart to run Windows, of course).

AMD 64 X2 Dual
Core processor 5000+
2GB ram (2.61GHz)
Nvidia Gforce 8800 GT
Windows XPpro SP2

Runs perfectly at 1680x1050 in 9

108 Stars · 09/22/2009, 10:02 am

AMD Athlon 63 3200+ with 2 Ghz
1 Gbyte RAM
GeForce FX 5700

The only way to play the game smooth with my specs is quality level 3.

I have a similar PC. I think your main problem is the video card.

I can run the game at 1440X900 at maximum detail 9

AMD 64 3000+
1.5 Gb RAM
GeForce 6600 GT

If you're using Vista, 1gb of RAM is also painfully low.

Olivil · 09/22/2009, 06:14 pm

Pentium MMX 200MHz (OC'd to 3.2GHz, added 3 more cores)
ATI Rage AGP 8MB (OC'd to the max)
98304kb of RAM (need to download more)
2 X 3.2GB HDD in RAID1 (I OC'd that too, mind you)
1KW Power Supply
MS-DOS

On a more serious note

Q6600@3.0GHZ
4GB of RAM at 1000mhz
9800GTX oc'd to 824/1238
Win7 64bit

9 all the way

OzzieMonkey · 09/22/2009, 08:08 pm

Ok,
considering I started this topic, and you guys have told me your specs, its only fair that I say mine:

Os:Windows Vista Ultimate-32 bit
RAM:4gb
Gfx:9400GT
CPU:Intel Core 2 Duo 3 ghz
It plays fantastically on 1280x720 res, quality at 9. Chapter 3 will be my first proper experience with doing this, since my laptop was rubbish and had to be put down to 1 in order for any playability, so i didn't get the full graphics treatment for the first 2 chapters. All the more reason to be excited!

taumel · 09/22/2009, 10:58 pm

On an outdated but silent (no fans) P4 2.8Ghz with 1Gb RAM and an ATI 3850 with XP but i somehow like this archaic machine for those adventures. :O)

Indeed it is. Actually I don´t even see much of a difference in quality between playing games with a Geforece 4ti and the FX5700. It´s a craptastic graphics card.

Problem is I am stuck with AGP (or PCI, not PCI-Express), where graphic cards offer lower performance at a higher price. But maybe I´ll switch to a card of the 6000-series anyway.

And no, I am not running Vista; I did once, but it sucked so hard I switched back to XP.

Bagge · 09/23/2009, 07:38 am

I use my stationary for playing video games:

Intel Quad Core Q6600 4x2.4MhZ
4GB RAM
2x in GeForce 8800GT 512MB in SLi

Game runs perfectly at 1680x1050 at GQ9.

onemanandhisdroid · 09/23/2009, 08:34 pm

And they say Telltale gamers are running pretty outdated computers, pfft.

Athlon X2 5200+
GeForce 8600GT 256 megs
2 GB Ram
WinXP SP2

With that setup you could probably force 16X antialiasing and it'd still be fine.

ChemBro · 09/23/2009, 11:54 pm

AMD Athlon something Dualcore 4800+
A 2 GB RAM
