Modern Warfare 2 on my PC

[BeanEgg]

I want to buy MW2 on PC, so I did a system spec check:


Would the game still work even if it's at 2.0? Or would that put too much pressure on my PC?

Overall, do you think this game will play perfectly fine?

Thanks in advance

Your's is a dual core so it'll be fine.

[Stephen!]

The game will play poorly since you have integrated graphics.

Strange, all my other games are perfectly fine. I was planning on buying a new one, but that's the whole motherboard?

Also how can I over clock the CPU?

New graphics card will just add into a PCI slot, so no need for a whole new motherboard

The game might run fine with integrated, how much dedicated mb's does your graphics card have?

889MB. (According to the screen-shot) I'm not sure if that's dedicated as that's part of my RAM.

Also could you recommend any decent ones please?

If you go to: control panel > system and security > system

Then do a windows experience index rating, then when done click on "View and print details performance and system information" it will tell you what your GFX card has dedicated and what is shared

Total available graphics memory: 895MB
Dedicated graphics memory: 256MB

Specs for cod mw2 are:

• Hard Drive Requirements: 16 GB free hard drive space
• Operating System: Windows Vista/XP (but Win 7 will be compatible)
• CPU: AMD 64 3200+ or Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz or better
• RAM: 512 MB RAM (XP) / 1 GB RAM (VISTA) / (Assume 1 GB RAM for Win 7)
• Video Card: Shader 3.0 or better 256 MB nVidia GeForce 6600GT / ATI Radeon 1600XT or better

So I assume it will run with low settings on there, shouldnt be that laggy but you never know. New GFX card will only cost roughly £60 ish for a decent one anyway

[BeanEgg]

It should anyway, the only problem is the CPU speed. Should I over-clock it, or is that a bad idea?

How would I go about doing it?
