    Hey guys, I recently got a PC desktop and then got this game just recently however I'm having some really annoying lag. Are my specs listed good enough? any recommendations to improve them?

    Processor: intel(R) Core(TM) i3-4150 CPU @ 3.50GHz
    RAM: 8.00 GB
    Graphics card: intel(R) HD Graphics 4400

    ps. I don't know a bunch about computers so sorry if I don't quite get something you say

    Thanks

    You have enough memory, your processor is... 'fair'

    but

    Intel Graphics can't run anything. It's only a little better than VGA

    Maybe on Lowest on a simple map at you can get acceptable framerates, but these are not meant for gaming at all. Get an actually graphics card if you intend to play any other games aside from Pong

    not "maybe"

    he most certainly can do low settings no problem

    heck, do you not see me gaming on an intel hd 2500 (which isn't even close to the performance of the hd 4400

    also vga is a connection type, not a gpu :/

    so do you have any suggestions on a better graphics card that isn't ridiculously expensive?

    Also I just found this one,[h=1]EVGA GeForce GTX 560 Superclocked 1024 MB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 2DVI/Mini-HDMI SLI Ready Graphics Card, 01G-P3-1463-KR[/h]do you know if it is any good?

    Thanks

    It won't even debut till 2015 though. I want the r9 280x but I don't know if I should wait for the 960 though.
