I'm buying a new graphics card and possibly adding more ram to it soon.
If I'm getting a beta key, I'll do it directley even though I've just got 40 euros to live on

What do u computer wizards think, will it run sc2?


Probably not with that resolution. You would definitely need a new graphics card. I would invest in a better CPU instead of more RAM.

I really hope this can run it ok. After browsing through this thread, it seems like it might be a bit of a stretch for my 9500gt, so, if it's out of the question, I'm just wondering what kind of upgrade would be realistic for my rig.

Note- People have mentioned that the 9500GT can't handle most modern games. I can run pretty much every new release on mid-high settings with no noticeable problems.

Laptop : (Asus G-73-X1, I got it for $1440 before newegg raised price to $1559 lmao)
i7 720 QM, ATI Mobility Raedeon HD 5870, 1920x1080 resolution, 8 GB DDR3 1333mhz, Windows 7

Desktop:
i7 920 OC @ 3.2 GHZ, 9800 GT, 4 GB DDR3, Vista.

Sad how my laptop outperforms my desktop right now :[ At least its upgradeable, the only thing I payed for was the x58 mobo + i7 chip, rest was just reused hardware.

Okay, this is my rig. As you can see my resolution is really god damn low. That's because I just upgraded my actual computer and not my screen, something which I will have to do in a near future. So what do you say, apart from the desktop resolution, is this computer good enough to run SC2? Personally I'm a bit confused about wether or not the graphics card will be able to deliver... Well, lay it on me brothers!

any 48xx AMD card will shine like a diamond at that resolution. I hope you're ready for high settings

I'm pretty sure I should be able to play this game, not sure if at high settings though. But what would you guys recommend for new videocard thats under $200?

Under $200 will not give you a noticeable increase...at least nothing that's worth $200. If you're willing to spend $300 then sure, but I doubt you'll even notice much performance increase in SC2 esp. since your desktop resolution is a little low. 4850 will easily max SC2 at that resolution esp since I'm able to comfortably play at 1920x1200 maxed with a very high frame rate with my 4870 1GB. Upgrade if there are other games you want to play.

I basically just care about playing SC2 to be honest, but thanks for the advice. ^_^
