delta7 Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Found this neat utility at UKDED http://www.yougamers.com/gameometer/10438/ You run a little utility and it spits out how your machine stacks up - looks like Im above minimum spec Quote
1. DDz Quorum Pooka Posted February 4, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Posted February 4, 2011 Mine came back, it will run well with high visual effects. Good news and I hope so. Thanks Dave GPU HD4890 Turbo+ CPU i7-920 Mem 6144 MB Quote
Kimosabi Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Same here should run well with high visual effects. Q9550, 5870 1gb and 8gb ram. I got full score on the gfx card but my old beater proc seem to be lacking a bit. Maybe I should stop torturing it..... Quote
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted February 4, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Posted February 4, 2011 "It should run on your computer, but you may have to play at a low resolution and/or turn down visual settings for acceptable performance. To improve the experience, note that... Your computer has a dual core processor. A quad core processor is recommended. Your video card has 960 MB video card memory. A video card with at least 1,024 MB is recommended. The overall performance of your processor and video card is below the recommended requirements. The performance of your processor is below the recommended requirements." Oh dear... Quote
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted February 4, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Posted February 4, 2011 A tip for all who ran this: Visit your control panel, add/remove programs, and uninstall 'Futuremark Systeminfo' Why? This software installs a Service on your system. Quote
Blairgowrie Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Came back with. "Sorry couldn't analyse your system" We are sorry, the Game-o-Meter is unable to calculate a performance estimate for your computer. It is unable to determine how well IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover runs on your system. This may be because: - Your processor or your video card is a very new model - Your computer has a processor and video card combination that is very rare - Or your processor or your video card is very old If your system is new, this problem should resolve itself automatically as more data is submitted. Please try again in a few days. Quote
Shadrach Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Sorry, the Game-o-Meter estimates that the overall performance of your system is under the publisher’s minimum requirements. Even though your computer has all the required hardware features the performance is estimated to be poor, even at the lowest possible visual settings. Insufficient video card performance is the most likely cause.Hey ho - just what I thought. Quote
2. Administrators fruitbat Posted February 4, 2011 2. Administrators Posted February 4, 2011 yummy. and thats before i overclock the cpu a bit more, and get a new Gfx card. Quote
Zooly Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 I too get: We are sorry, the Game-o-Meter is unable to calculate a performance estimate for your computer.

Kimosabi Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 yummy. and thats before i overclock the cpu a bit more, and get a new Gfx card. I think we should take the game-o-meter with a grain of salt. No way my system at 3.4gHz(well any speed) is faster than yours. Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted February 4, 2011 2. Administrators Posted February 4, 2011 I don't meet the recommended requirements. And neither does my PC Jabo Quote
Streak Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Well I guess I'll have to live with slightly reduced graphics, but at least it will run. Quote
T_O_A_D Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 I'm at work, so I can't test it. But unless this thing actually does some rendering and processor loading, I'd not hold much thought on it. It sounds like its just comparing parts and pieces of hardware to a list of acceptable items. You can do that by reading the forums, and seeing the specs required on the box.. Lets see once we get ahold of the software, then we will truly know. Ok so I'm home now. This is what mine got. Well for some reason it won't let me upload the pic. I'll photo bucket it then. Quote
Tribunus Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 My Gaming Rig is in Cairo and I'm still stuck in Kuwait City. So I have no way of using this test mechanism. I'm also not what you would call computer literate, so what I would like to do is give you all my systems specifications and see what you think. I've got a four year old Dell XPS 720 H2O, which was supposed to be a fairly decent rig when I bought it. So while I'm sure that it is no longer cutting edge technology, I am hoping that it might fall within the Recommend range of performance for Cliffs of Dover. I've got a Intel Core 2 Extreme processor QX6700 at 3.46 GHz with QuadCore. 4GB of DDR2 SDRAM Dual NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX set up in a SLI Dual 160GB 10,000 RPM Hard Drives set up as a RAID 0 So please give me your honest opinions. Am I at the upper end of Minimum Specifications or the lower end of Recommended? Quote
PropNut Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 The Game-o-Meter opined: "Two tin cans connected by a wet string can transfer information faster than your system. Please try not to share your system information with others as ridicule may ensue" Everyone has got to be a critic, I get no respect! Quote
JensenPark Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Mine says to get of the f*&cking computer and help with chores. Quote
1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted April 3, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Posted April 3, 2011 Hmm. Needs a lot of salt this... My 4870... and I can run at high settings! No way... Mind you the bugs in this sim, I find my CH Controls are near useless as COD doesn't register the axis changes for quite some time. So unimportant things like throttle, pitch, mixture changes etc register minutes later (and some times not at all).. Quote
Zooly Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 http://clients.futuremark.com/gom/gameometer.action?gameId=10438&sysInfoId=5442783 It should run well on your computer at high visual settings. Quote
2. Administrators fruitbat Posted April 3, 2011 2. Administrators Posted April 3, 2011 that test is worth about as much as the sweat off my balls. Quote
