S.P.Q.R on My hopefully upcoming Rig?

[Roman Clone]

Well, the only SPQR capable computer in this house just was being a pain with all my games so in Early June I'm might be building a new Rig. I want to know about how many men I might be able run with this towa-of-powa!

312KB Of RAM
33 MHZ Processor
4MB GPU
Windows 95


Real one:
Nvidia 8800 GTS 512MB
4 GB of RAM (Will eventually get another 4GB)
Windows XP Pro 64-Bit
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.66 GHz
500 GB Hard Drive 7200 RPM


My Old gaming Rig:

Windows XP 32-bit
6600 GT 128 MB
1.5 GB of RAM
2.4 GHz Celeron D Processor (It either was Pentium or Celeron, I forget)
300 GB 7200 RPM

Wow! Roman clone that rig is totally awsome,I mean perfect for running spqr with at least 10,000 to 11,000 men with good grafixs!(Nvidia 8800 GTS 512MB They say that grafixs card is really great,I m saving up for it.)

[Roman Clone]

Yeah, and it's only $1550. New Egg is a miracle worker.
I was able to run 7000 men with just my 6600 GT with some features turned off, but mostly high. I think I might be able to run 15,000 on this.

quote roman clone:I think I might be able to run 15,000 on this.
I can only imagen the scale of that battle ....Anyways hope you enjoy playing SPQR TW on your new computer .

I envy you.

[SirGejor]

I believe that is possible. I have a MSI 8600 GT and I get to 12.000.

[General_olli]

I have the same specs as you, Roman Clone. Except the 8800, mine is the 8600 gt 512Mb. SPQR is working fine over here, even on high settings, so I guess you'll have a lot of SPQR fun

[Hesus de bodemloze]

i got a 8800 gts with 512 MB but never tested how many men i could get. 2.8 ghz with 2 gig ram

[themrwho]

Could you guys please also post your CPU and memory too?

Sometimes I'm thinking about going out and buying a new computer just for SPQR. So it'd be helpful if you can give some more info. thanks.

[Valerius Tiberius]

nice one man
let me know how many troops you can handle with SPQR

[Hesus de bodemloze]

oke here we go

intel pentium D CPU 2.80 GHz 2.81 Ghz
2,00 GB of ram
xp service pack 2
8800 gts Nvidea geforce with 512 MB
2x maxtor HD 250 GB
1x maxtor HD 115 GB

[ItalianLegionary]

Oh Wow!
Roman clone's PC is a monsterpower!!
i think you'll are glad now with this new pc!At least 10.000 soldiers on the battlefield are will be.
enjoy man!

[Roman Clone]

First, I have to convince my father to let me build it. If not, I'm doomed to some computer with a low end 128 MB graphics card and Vista....

[CK23]

Heh Don't be fooled I have two 8800 GTS 640Mb There awesome cards BTW, and I have a difficulty running 15k+ troops on high with everything....

So don't try to exert your computer to much.

[Roman Clone]

What resolution are you playing at?

By the way, what are the rest of your specs?

[SirGejor]

Fyi,.... I use a 8600 GT 256 x 256 - Resolution of 1680x1050x32. LCD Monitor 22." 4 Gb Memory Kingstom DDR2. SPQR works very well.

[Roman Clone]

How many men can you run?

[SirGejor]

+/- 15.000

You are probably playing on Medium/High custom setting and low/no AA in order to get 15 k battles and no lags :hmmm:

I have Core 2 Duo @ 2.1 Ghz - 2 Gb Twin Memory - 8800/384Mb GTS - 22'' LCD monitor - 160 Gb HD and I can't get more than 12K battles without lags on max settings

[General_olli]

Is that on all high?
