Alright /v/, 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.
>This is the best computer I have.
>computer
But that's a notebook.
>>337899896
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.
>>337899896

You probably couldn't even run minecraft on that shit

on a fucking 64-bit operating system
I'd shoot whoever set that notebook up for a life of pain.

Why didn't you post your speccy?
>>337899896
download speccy and post
btw from that pic you have one proper shite pc.
>>337900361
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.
>>337899896
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.

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

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.
>>337900580
>why are you even making this thread?
So dumbfucks, like you, respond.
>>337901092
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 suckeron the bright side it's a touchscreen laptop for when I'm feeling extremely lazy, but holy fuck
>>337899896
I hope you didn't pay more than $80 for that.

Holy fuck, man.
Please tell me you didn't buy this recently.
>>337901293
>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.
>>337901293
are you sure it's not just set to integrated graphics?
>>337901293
I've always been told this shit ain't possible with laptops. Has my whole life been a lie?
>>337899896
Phones have better specs than your PC
>>337901431

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'
>>337901509
Fuck I messed up that entire post. You can't replace a laptop GPU apart from very specific cases, you're stuck with it.
>>337901539
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.
>>337901748
I'm a neet and my dad is a 60 year old maintenance dude who just checks his email and plays freecell religiously

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".

You're not running anything without 3rd strike's graphics, anon.
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.
>>337901986
scart screens only good for PS2 and older consoles
>>337901961

>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.
>>337902283
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.
>>337902328
Woops I'm retarded. This is the DS3 PC.

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"
>>337902606
He probably succumbed to the MS pop up terror.
>>337902518
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
>>337902518
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
>>337902645
windows update strikes again. happend to me a week ago
>>337902645
Just get over it and use it, so you'll realize win10 is not as bad as bluepilled win7 and linux babbies say.
>>337902767
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
>>337902645
>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.
>>337902723
>>337902767
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.
>>337902862
resolution and AA influence VRAM the most
nobody is gonna max out AA before he plays on ultra
>>337902908
>>337902645
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?
>>337902842
Its not that bad, just unfuck the spying shit
>>337903065
valid point
>>337903141
1070 or bust
>>337899896
Man where do I even start.
>>337903141
you buy a console
>>337902842
Sure its not like the fucking thing deleted the stuff that I needed for work
>>337903061

>>337902781
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.
>>337901123
That's quite something you've got right there, not in any way built for pc games...but it's...it's something.

Bullshit. I upgraded from 8.1 to 10 and nothing of my stuff got deleted.
>>337903414
yeah same shit happened to me but I was too late its fucking ridiculous how hard they are pushing that shit, I don't understand why and what motivation they would have for it.
luckily I discovered this nifty feedback thingy so some poor bastard at Microsoft is going to have a fun time

I don't know about OW but borderline for DaS3 would be something like a Celeron G1840 and a R7 250X.
I think latest Intel Graphics *might* be able to run it, but you'd probably need an i7.
everything on low, lowest possible resolution. 30FPS.
>>337902908
Happened to me, had to edit the damned registry to make it stop. Can't wait for Linux to get better game emulation so I can jump ship.
>>337903757
it could be worse
found some dude on youtube whos integrated graphics were better than his dedicated GPU
>>337904460
my neighbours i3 intel graphics managed to run OW but at 20-40fps, and a intel g3258 would be a better option

he's probably just trying to get the point across, that PC gaming isn't expensive and you can play DaS3 better than consoles can for half the price.

am I missing something?
>>337901043
>>337901293
i have this same laptop and i've looked into this
replacing the cpu is possible, but it's an fga socket, so it's a huge pain in the ass
replacing the gpu isn't possible, but it can use up to 1.7 gbs of ram, and you can overclock it safely to 1000mhz from 800mhz with intel xtu
also, setting games to high priority in task manager helps a lot
i'm building a pc as soon as prices drop with polaris/zen coming out, and working my way up from therei'll finally be able to play battlefield 4 at higher than 60% resolution
>>337906139
Yup.
>>337901123
What the fuck. How much did this cost and when did you buy it?
>>337899896
Considering you already have a monitor, keyboard, and mouse, you could probably build a PC that could run overwatch at your monitors resolution at medium settings for like $350 or so. You'll save money pirating Windows and buying used too.
