Re: Can I run left 4 dead?
Well I wanted to try the demo but couldn't find it anywhere.. Do you know where I could find it? I thought there was it.
Are you 100% I can run it? I may like, cry in happiness. Because I never really cared for the game till I youtube'd it today. And looked AMAZING. |

Re: Can I run left 4 dead?
It is a good game! I am 100% you can run it, believe me, it isn't that graphic intensive, just your cpu is a little under par. You will definitely to upgrade for some of the future games though, like mw2.

Re: Can I run left 4 dead?
I feel confident with that thanks :)
Unluckily, my mobo is old and cant support anything more than a single core so I'm not upgrading (maybe I will, they do make 3 GH single cores, right? Can you tell me a good processor upgrade from what DXDiag has told you?) Luckily, for most games I play them on my PS3, and will be getting MW2 and Borderlands for it for christmas so I dont need my PC for them Edit... Its a socket "A" 462, is there a good upgrade for me?

Re: Can I run left 4 dead?
your video card will run left 4 dead on medium settings with low resolution
but your CPU is the problem now that bad thing about the CPU is that it's not meant for games at all I mean the Sempron is compared to a Celeron, and we all know that both are bad in games, worse than that it's 2.0 Ghz and the game min requirements is 3.0 Ghz P4 or equivalent in AMD let me explain this: a 2.0 Ghz P4 is a lot better than a 2.0 Ghz Celeron or Sempron I'm not trying to disappoint you, I'm just trying to save you from paying the money of a game that will lagg a lot on your PC so I suggest you build a good gaming PC with a 400 to 500 $ you can build a PC that can play games like Crysis, GTA IV and all next gen games
