Video Games Elder Scrolls V - Page 79

**Fire Me Boy!** · 06-20-2009, 11:58 AM

So the guys at Bethesda let it slip a few months ago that Elder Scrolls V was in the works for 2010, and a friend said he read a possible release in 2009... I'm looking for the article, but I'm friggin' STOKED about a new Elder Scrolls game coming out in the next 12-18 months!!!

I think they can learn a lot with the successes and failures of their previous landmark releases like Morrowind, Oblivion and Fallout 3 and make ESV an absolute KICK ASS game!

Yeah dude, sounds like your computer is too shitty to run the game.

Want to post specs?

What? You have a 46.6" monitor?

Here is some dude having problems with his 280.

I don't know. That would suck if it's your power supply.

Yeah, it's called my TV.

Although I don't have it hooked up to the TV at the moment - just my 24" monitor.

Actually, if it is the power supply it's not that big of a deal. I'm five minutes from a Tiger Direct and know enough to drop a replacement in myself. Just pissed about having to drop the extra cash, but I guess these things don't last forever.

I'll check the nvidia link. I did update the driver, though.

According to this I meet the minimum requirements but I need more RAM to meet the recommended requirements.

I can always drop in an extra couple of sticks, I guess.

Frazod · 11-30-2011, 12:53 AM

Damn, RAM's gotten cheap. I can get 8GB for under $50, 16GB for under $100. Hell, I should do that anyway.

demonhero · 11-30-2011, 12:55 AM

Ya, on Black Friday the 8gb (2 X 4gb) was on sale for like $23-30 free shipping online.

Frazod · 11-30-2011, 12:57 AM

Is RAM pretty much universal, or is there a specific type/brand I should get for my processor?

keg in kc · 11-30-2011, 12:59 AM

It depends on your motherboard.

It also depends on your operating system. If you're running 32-bit XP/vista/windows 7, you have as much installed as you can use IIRC.

A little high, but if you cant wait.

Patience ain't one of my virtues, especially when I'm five minutes from TigerDirect.

Just in case you missed the second half I edited in later...

demonhero · 11-30-2011, 01:05 AM

meh, you need to look and see if the motherboard with allow certain types, because you ultimately want the RAM speed to match the processor speed.
