So that's my new PC and have some question since I'm new to the PC gaming world. Please bear with me on this one! I'll number them to make it easier to read.
1. I'd like to play single player games on my PC but only if they'd look better than on my Xbox 360. I can't afford a better graphics card yet. I'm not too familiar with low, medium, high and ultra setting yet. What is the lowest setting that typically makes PC games look better than on consoles (I'm guessing high right)?
2. I heard from some people that with my GPU I should only have Anti-Aliasing up to 8x in games. Should I not go higher than that and would it make the graphics of a game worse than on a console?
3. What should Anisotropic Filtering be set at usually?
4. Only game I've tried so far is Arcania 4: A Gothic Tale and on highest settings (didn't mess with any individual settings) it would be around 27-32fps. Is that good or bad?
5. Please tell me, Skyrim will look better on my PC than my Xbox 360 right? (Even though the specs aren't out yet..)
