Alright Sup Forums, I'm gonna be straight...

Alright Sup Forums, I'm gonna be straight. I know absolutely jack shit about PCs and PC gaming because I didn't grow up around computers.

This is the best computer I have. How fucking terrible is it actually? I want to play overwatch but don't have any other current gen systems and don't really feel like spending a shittillion dollars.

But that's a notebook.

Nice screenshot, dumbass.

There's no way Overwatch is going to run on this. I have a much better laptop which barely ran at 60fps in 720p at the lowest possible settings.
You can play TF2 with an FPS config, though.

>2gb
>dualcore

You probably couldn't even run minecraft on that shit

2gb ram
on a fucking 64-bit operating system

I'd shoot whoever set that notebook up for a life of pain.

it's a desktop

I know it's horrible pls no bully

I'm phoneposting in my bed at 5am and the home menu wouldn't open so I couldn't get to paint

fuckin sue me nigger

Why didn't you post your speccy?

download speccy and post


btw from that pic you have one proper shite pc.

That screen doesn't show if you have a GPU installed or net, I'm gonna guess it doesn't but go to the start menu, type in device manager and in that window double click on display adapters to list if you have one. If it doesn't and you really wanna just play Overwatch, buy a 750ti for a hundred bucks and it'll be fine, other than that I doubt you'll be able to run it well if at all.

I'm not too familiar with win10 but I'm almost certain even vista required more than 2GB of RAM to handle all the processes.

Wont run overwatch.

I have an 8 year old computer that's better than that.

It's shit and you knew that, why are you even making this thread? You can't play overwatch unless you make a significant upgrade which you already said you're not willing to do.

>win 10
it's already too late for you

>2GB RAM
>windows 10
>64-bit

this has to be bait

dude this would have been a shit computer in 2009

can it even run w10 with 2gb of ram?

this has to be a troll thread

Well, good news is you'll be able to play Doom. Bad news - not 2016 one.
I can guarantee you won't be able to run OW on this

>2GB ram
>W10
How

>overwatch

kek.

Try Half-Life 2.

>I'm gonna be straight
no you're not

>2gb RAM
h-how?

What games have you played on it already?

Post a screenshot of Speccy, or at the very least open up your case and confirm that you've got a graphics card.

>2GB RAM
That's what too small. How can you even browse Sup Forums with this little RAM?

Not OP, just hijacking the thread for a general rate on my laptop
been ages since I've used speccy

>Intel HD graphics
Why user
Why

I've played third strike on fightcade and that's about it

I told you niggers I don't pc game

Turn it into an emulation box. Should run things fine up to 5th gen and some 6 gen games.

PC games from the late 90s are also an option. It was the best time for PC gaming anyway.

>why are you even making this thread?

So dumbfucks, like you, respond.

I know, I didn't even realize. probably going to take this sucker apart and try to replace it sometime soon, just need to research a bit more on parts that won't fry this sucker
on the bright side it's a touchscreen laptop for when I'm feeling extremely lazy, but holy fuck

I hope you didn't pay more than $80 for that.

>dat everything

Holy fuck, man.

Please tell me you didn't buy this recently.

>GPU
>Replacing the graphics card
Unless it's a "dedicated" gaming laptop that very likely won't be an issue. Intel HD 5xxx isn't AWFUL, it'll run a lot of stuff just barely and older things pretty well. But don't get your hopes up about somehow improving it.

are you sure it's not just set to integrated graphics?

I've always been told this shit ain't possible with laptops. Has my whole life been a lie?

Phones have better specs than your PC

my dad brought it home from work to check his email

pretty sure it's better than the other one we have because that shit still runs on xp

>2GB ram
>64 bit OS

That was low end even when it came out, dude. Isn't that CPU from like 2008?

this takes me back to my days of building 486s

you kids today and your watercooling, bahh...

i dont understand this post, you are clearly underage, why are you posting here?

also why did your dad bring a, at a minimum 7 year old computer 'home from work'

Fuck I messed up that entire post. You can't replace a laptop GPU apart from very specific cases, you're stuck with it.
Quite a few laptops allow you to replace the CPU. GPU is usually integrated in to the motherboard itself, if there's any at all.

I'm a neet and my dad is a 60 year old maintenance dude who just checks his email and plays freecell religiously

don't even ask me about my internet speed

my old pc had 2gb and dualcore, i ran bf3 without lag with a hd7770

You sound like underage to me too user.

my dad brought home a fucking huge TV from work and the most modern connection it has is fucking SCART and it weighs a ton. he thought i would sit it on my next and its better than my 144hz monitor because "its bigger".

dads are fucking normies.

>integrated graphics
>less RAM than 64 bit systems are even meant to function with
>hard drive is smaller than some original Xboxes came with
You're not running anything without 3rd strike's graphics, user.

You're looking at a new PC or a current gen console. I'm gonna assume some enthusiast youtube channel has made a cheapass build that runs OW already, because there's definitely a $200 Dark Souls 3 build out there.

scart screens only good for PS2 and older consoles

well my dad could legally kick me out and the government would tell me to fuck off, so tough shit

sorry I'm not old enough for your personal little treehouse nigger

You're a neet who doesn't know shit about hardware; and is unable to acquire anything half way decent?

Fuck, that's failing by even neet standards.

gtx 950 are one of the best budget card atm

What

Those things are golden for old consoles though.

>e8500
>2gb ram
>integrated graphics card
calculator tier

it means I'm at least 18 so suck my dodongo

kek

How fucked am I?

>dodongo
My sides

I have enough saved up that I could buy a really good pc if I wanted to, but I don't wanna spend that kind of money for a handful of vidya gams

but overwatch looks really fun and my friends are all playing it on pc so I'm more tempted than usual

You'll be alright, just tone shit down.

not that bad actually

youtu.be/C72a1TU-SWM
Found the DS3 PC. Can anyone more into graphics tell me if DS3 or OW needs higher specs?

>suck my dodongo

>2gb vram

look at this poor nigger

im preordering it and will be shitposting vids on my channel about it

you dont need more fuckboi, 4k is overkill even for most games and on a 22inch screen i dont see a fucking difference

>you dont need more fuckboi, 4k is overkill even for most games and on a 22inch screen i dont see a fucking difference

Yes you do, I have a 2GB card and it's suffering on new games.

If you can get something good enough for a current generation game, you're also set for literal decades of buried treasure that you missed out on.

Woops I'm retarded. This is the DS3 PC.
youtu.be/u_i4HoYqLBI

If you don't know anything about PC then how come you have W10 installed on such an old PC?

>tfw this morning I turned on my computer to be greeted by windows 10
can someone please explain how the fuck this happened?
I thought I turned off automatic updates and completely ignored every single attempt the thing made begging me to 'upgrade'
This shit is fucking ugly and everything looks stupid and the worst part is it broke my DVD drive or media player or something so now I can't even watch my anime and other shit and even autodeleted a program that I need for my job because it "wasn't compatible"

He probably succumbed to the MS pop up terror.

i have a 2gb card and i push my resulotion over 1080p and i dont get a single drop in fps right now.
so tell me is it a amd graphics card you have or nvidia

if the card is high end then yes, a 960 with 2 GB is somewhat managable but that is the line I would say 3GB would be better

windows update strikes again. happend to me a week ago

Just get over it and use it, so you'll realize win10 is not as bad as bluepilled win7 and linux babbies say.

yeah but that depends you dont need to have ultra settings on everything. you see its the gameplay not the graphics - evry console peasant ever

lol

>win 10 pops up everyday begging for me to download
>also exit out
>one time after I hit the X it pops up again and says that it scheduled an install for an hour later

I wish Microsoft would stop bullying me.

Nvidia, stop being retarded you can't play new games on high settings with only 2GB. GTA5 and Shadow of Mordor use tons of VRAM without even maxed settings, friend has same thing with AMD crossfire with 2gb cards.

My laptop with a 4GB card, which is lower spec in everything apart from VRAM runs those games better than my desktop.

resolution and AA influence VRAM the most

nobody is gonna max out AA before he plays on ultra

I never have those, what am I doing wrong?

What should I do about my GPU? I plan on sticking to 1080p so I thought the 970 would be a good purchase until I heard about the whole 3.5 thing. I started considering the AMD R9 390 as an alternative, but then I heard that AMD has been getting shit performance on recent games. What do?

Its not that bad, just unfuck the spying shit

valid point

1070 or bust

Man where do I even start.

you buy a console

Sure its not like the fucking thing deleted the stuff that I needed for work

nigger i play at ultra setting GTAV with my asus gtx 960 and it fucking works wonders for me. idk what kind of nvidia u have (like asus or msi etc.) and pcb for that matter makes a lot of difference

>64 bit OS
>2Gb of RAM

Is Acer that retard ?

With a dual core and 2 Gb or RAM
He would have better lucj with Half Life 1

and sorry for being handicapped kinda hard thing to get by

This, I had Windows Update locked down, all W10 related installers/data removed and blocked, all update servers blocked at firewall and somehow they still evaded every blocking method I had used, changed my update settings, REMOVED my fucking firewall blocks and started downloading, I BARELY managed to stop it from downgrading after I walked away to take a shit and if I had spent 10 seconds longer in the bathroom I would have been infected with Win10.

That's quite something you've got right there, not in any way built for pc games...but it's...it's something.

nah half life 2 runs somewhat good on intel hd 3000

>windows 10

>doesn't even know how to take a screenshot
Buy a console.

I've seen my dad put a GPU in his workhorse laptop, it was pretty shocking.

>intel hd
basically the cuck lifestyle

sucks mayor balls and i was on a fucking trip away from my pc and it still fucking updated idk why and how but idc anymore

well ol hp laptops without a gtx 560 has the intel hd's

I played the Overwatch beta just fine on my GTX950

Mah nigga
It's a piss poor laptop, but I can run most of the things that I want to play. From stalker to mountain blade, emulators, VN, telltale bullshit and old pc games like fucking thief, a poorfag can survive.
