• Optimal Computer Specs Question

What would be the optimal (minimal) specs for a computer to run Garry's Mod (i.e. processor power/type OS 32/64-bit)?
I'd say Dual core, 2Gh or more. 2+ GB DDR+ ram Geforce 8600+ (I don't know the ATI equivalent)
Thanks. My current system has enough ram and a good enough graphics card but not enough processor power. Should I replace the whole system, risking the Source SDK not working on windows 7, or keep the XP comp and just spend the extra money to upgrade the processor? [editline]11:38AM[/editline] ...then again, my graphics card is only an ati radeon 3100 - not quite the equivalent to geforce 8600
It's not my computer, do whatever you want to.
I ran Garry's Mod on an AMD Sempron 1.8ghz with an ATI radeon 9600 and 1 GB of DDR RAM :v:
You're gonna need the 6-core i7 980x as well as 4-way sli 480gtx's. It's also mandatory that your pc case is red. Your computer will explode if these requirements aren't met.
I used to run on a P4 3.6 ghz, 2 gigs of RAM and a Radeon x600 series card. It worked reasonably well.
just go to [url]www.canyourunit.com[/url] to find out if you can run a game on your computer well, ok or not at all. works for many games. [editline]02:14AM[/editline] just select from the drop down half life 2
That site is a load of shit. It said I cant run BioShock 2 at all but I run it at all high.
I can run anything on my computer since its overkill... intel core 2 extreame QX9775 @ 3.2GHz, 8GB RAM, 2x1Tb SATA HDD, intel 160GB solid state drive. CD/DVD RW/w lite-scribe, Sony Blue-ray drive. Dual ATI Radeon HD 5400 Series PCI-E SLi (512Mb X2) Dual 23" wide LCD Sony. Integrated LAN and Audio, Linksys WiFI, AT&T wireless broadband USB card. Five OS choices installed: Windows Vista Ultimate 64 Ubuntu Linux Windows 7 Ultimate Windows XP Pro Red Enterprise Linux
Basically any computer that was mid-range in 2007 can run Gmod. Running it well depends on too many variables, namely the game mode, prop count etc. SDK works on windows 7.
Yeah. I can run Gmod with medium settings at 1280x1024 on Windows XP. I'm running it on a Pentium 4 531 (3GHz, single core, HT), an ATI Radeon X1950 and 2 GB of mismatched RAM. I'd say you can play it on pretty much anything. I also tend to run it with Wire, PHX3 and about 38 other small addons. I can break a smooth 35 fps
Well dont buy 8600GT man ... Get ATI Radeon HD5670 1GB GDDR5 128 BIT PCIe X16. If you ask me I cant belive I got this awesome GFX card for so little money.
