Will i be able to run Watch dogs?

aenaosMonomaxos · Sep 17, 2013

SO i have an old rig,a pretty outdated 6-year-old CPU intel core 2 duo E7300 @2.66 (Overclocked at 3.1 but i had it on 3.66 so i think i can push it to reach that)..
2GB RAM
NVIDIA GEFORCE GT 610 1 GB
WINDOWS VISTA 32 BIT

note that in the last 2 years i have played games which according to minimum system requirements i cannot and went to can you run it..but tryied games and they worked.
for example,i can play far cry 3 even though it needs 4 gb,assasin's creed 3, saintws row iv,sleeping dogs.
i don't care about visuals,i just care if i can run this game..note that i am playing always in 1600x900 resolution

thanks.Your opinions are much aprreciated

im not so sure since you got only a dual core cpu and for this game it could very well be to weak, it will most likely require a 4core cpu to run,

aenaosMonomaxos · Sep 17, 2013

saints row iv was also supposed to run with 4 cpu core but is running pretty much fine with no lag on my pc (1600*900).

nokiddingboss · Sep 17, 2013

you can't compare those two as watchdogs is by far ahead of saints row 4 in terms of graphics (see the videos for yourself). besides, a gt 610? no can do buddy. you'll need to change your gpu fast.

cemerian · Sep 17, 2013

aenaosMonomaxos :

the rpoblem there is that saint row 4 was running on a dated engine which was only supposed to utilize 4 croes but can run on 2 aswell, while watch dogs will have a completly new engine, wich by all the looks is optimized for 4core and up, since both last gen consoles will have 8 core cpus

i see :I
ok so i will most likely not run it..but assasin's creed 4?

cemerian · Sep 17, 2013

yeah the gpu is far to weak for watch dogs it coulkd be possible that it will launch but that gpu wont allow it to run good enough at any settings , i would say wait till it releases or atleast minimums requirements come out, at this poit i would say that you will have to get a new gpu, but still not sure about the cpu

if you ran ac3 then ac4 should run even better since it will be an up[dated version of the same engine(and ac3 was horribly optimized)

DragonChase · Sep 17, 2013

The CPU is hardcore outdated, its about the CPU and ram, saints row 4 is like the easiest graphical game out there.

I also predict in the not far future that dual cores will be just banned and stuff wont start, because of your dual core games are programmed to not start content up at all.

For example lots of AI's are non existent with a dual core, so your missing game content in its whole.

I highly recommend getting a new PC.

DragonChase :

thanks for the explanation..i do not have any hardware knowledge..i will buy a new pc when i am done with college.I just hoped that i could run it you know..hope dies last!

U can , just that u nid to lower the graphics settings,
Core 2 Duo perform poorly in Sleeping Dogs, keep that in mind.
My Core 2 Duo E8400 with my Radeon HD 6850, can bearly run it with medium settings on 1080p.
If u have a graphics like that , I would recommended u run it on low resolution and kept all the settings on lowest.
It might give a 30fps in game ~

its about this

Quote:
" on the dual core processors but games will still run on them. for instance if you have a dual core for battlefield 3 you have 1 less AI partner "

Now that stuff gets worse and worse, others see a person opening a massive door, for you it opens magicly.

Check this graph:

aenaosMonomaxos · Sep 17, 2013

vipervoid1 :

yeah it lagged indeed..but i was able to play it on lowest settings..that's the point.I don't care how it looks.I just want to play it
i will try the low resolution..and of course i have many programs to help boost my performance.

thanks for this positive comment

No you will not be able to run watch dogs
you need to upgrade your OS as well as ram
OS to 64bit &ram to 6GB
GT610 meets the minimum specifications for watch dogs
May be it will run on your PC but 1-3 fps (unplayable)

kodos · Apr 2, 2014

will i be able to run watch dogs im on a laptop with 8 gb ram procesor Intel Core i7-2630QM 4-Core 2.0GHz and video card Nvidia GeForce GT 540M and windows 7 64 bit.

taha2001 · May 11, 2014

Hmm Well in my opinion u can't and even if u make it run, u won't be having fun cause it will hang and thats shit. I also have a Core 2 Duo E8400 @3.00Ghz, 4Gb RAM, Nvidia gt 630 2 gb graphics card and believe me it was difficult for me to play AC4 .. It was hanging on 900 x 1600 resolutions and all setting were turned to low or very low.. So i made the resolution 720 x 1280 and that was just FINE not too good and if u check out watch dogs requirement i am sure u would have heart attach considering ur rig.

I can run Watch Dogs on ultra.
Core 2 Duo E8400 3 GHz
3 GB RAM
GTX 650
Your gpu is a little weak but you can run the game in low to medium settings.

dominirican3351 · Jun 3, 2014

You can not run watchdogs on your system is 32bit watch dog needs 64bit do not purchase

Deny03 · Jun 15, 2014

Shantanu Pingale :

Did You Serious About that on Ultra????

Can I play it with

Dual Core B960 2.2
2 GB RAM
Nvida 610M ???

taha2001 · Jun 16, 2014

Deny03 :

Hey he's lying you cannot play watch dogs on ultra on gtx 650, medium or low is fine or maybe on ultra he would be playing in 400p and low fps ..

he might actually. 720p + 15~20fps is enough for the mainstream to call "playable". they aren't a picky bunch.

Houcem380 · Jun 27, 2014

Dude if you have a 6GB ram or 4GB and a strong graphic card you can run it but with these it won't and if it works it will be rabbish

Will i be able to run Watch dogs?
