Hello everyone! I would like to ask you about my computer. I need your opinion on is it good or not? Will I be able to play games like Far cry 4 on ultra and those similar?

Intel Core I5 6400
8 gb ram
Nvidia GTX 1050 2GB dedicated (4 GB video ram memory)

Thanks!

Hello guys I'm back! I hope you will see this reply sooner or later. I had installed few games today and those are: Elder scrolls Skyrim, Farcry 4 and GTA IV

All of these games believe it or not run at maximum ultra details with 1920x1080 resolution.

Here are some screenshots of Farcry 4 options > http://i.imgur.com/GFQld2P.jpg

Playing this game on fullscreen and I also used fraps. It showed that I have around 520-580 fps at every stage of the game. I don't know how much these numbers are actually true but I'm impressed with it. Everything is so smooth and working like a charm. (I couldn't screenshot the gameplay it didn't work for some reason...)

I don't wanna say that you are wrong guys, but I just...

At 1080p, that GPU will struggle to provide 60 fps in AAA games at ultra settings. The 1050 is really more of a budget/esports card.

If you are at a lower resolution than 1080p, or are willing to compromise for lower than ultra settings, you will have better results.

If you like Farcry 4 then you're like me then I say this to you: "With a PC like this you can forget about playing any games on any settings other than medium-to-low.

I don't wanna say that you are wrong guys, but I just got different results! Maybe because these are just old games but i'll see what happens when I install some new.

Later on I may upgrade my computer even more but now I'm satisfied. :)
