Guys and Gals! Howdy,
I just stumbled across some pretty cool website.....if your "iffy" about a game working on your machine just follow the steps and in a couple of secs you'll know.

http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srtest

Tried searching the forums and found nothing alike.....maybe it should be a sticky?

Oh and sorry if this isn't the place to post it! Very Happy

The link that you mentioned is a very common one and it shouldn't be reminded, also it isn't an accurate one.

Jesus Christ guys dont be so fucking hostile.. the guy is only trying to help. Besides, this test is meant to give you a general idea of performance(on your machine) based on developers system requirements. If you dont know the specs of your rig, this can be VERY useful.. so stop flaming the poor guy and offer up some constructive criticism of why this test does or doesnt work for you. Dont shoot the fucking messenger.

I helped a buddy piece together a rig not too long ago to play BF2. He has no idea whats inside the thing, he just knows it works. So when he started asking me the inevitable "will my system run ..." questions, I referred him to SRtest. He used it a few times, and eventually figured out what he had to work with.. and can now guess system performance based on the very specifications that the test uses.. which are printed on the boxes of retail games. So to say that something like this is worthless just shows how arrogant you are, and flaming the guy for posting it shows how ignorant you are.

Wow, has this been fun!

To clarify all, I myself do know my specs but some people have a hard enough time figuring out where c: is.

And thanx to Boognish, I was only trying to help the "unedumacated."

Yes also a PCI version.

In regards to the hostility, oh well. Enough hostility can't be shown here. These sites are garbage, and mislead too many people who don't know better. You put together person A who has a dream machine, Person B who has a toaster, and these tests sometimes only give them a reading one slot apart, which makes Person B think their toaster will run the game just fine. When they try its another story. Everyone who tries to link to these should be publicly shamed, perhaps shaved, painted pink, and driven up and down the streets of their home town tied to a pole in the back of a truck.

Any behaviour that would discourage linking to these sites is to be encouraged, not berated.
